Bridge Broadlink RM Devices with MQTT and API for e.g. OpenHAB

Yet another MQTT - Broadlink Bridge

This one is built specifically with OpenHAB on a Raspberry PI in mind. However it can be used in other scenarios installation outside RPI. It's possible to run this with e.g. Home Assistant.

More information

Read the wiki https://github.com/fbacker/broadlink-mqtt-bridge/wiki

It has a Admin GUI for helping record IR / RF signals. You will be able with the filetree see all recorded actions, delete actions and if a disclamation mark occures, this means that the action is a duplicate of another (has same binary content).

Requirements Home Assistant

• Node > 8
• MQTT Broker
• Broadlink device e.g. RM 3 PRO

Requirements OpenHAB

• Node > 8 (installed on RPI OpenHAB)
• MQTT (mosquitto in OpenHAB)
• Broadlink device e.g. RM 3 PRO

Breaking Changes v2 -> v3 (buffer to base64)

WARNING: upgrade is changed. Please read the installation page

Commands are saved as base64 files to make it easier to copy from/to other systems.

As for now if the new base64 (.txt) file isn't found it will try to run the (.bin) file instead. This can be changed in future releases so make sure to upgrade your commands and don't delete the old files until you are sure that they work.

To migrate existing commands run npm run convert in the service folder. This will create base64 files of all existing bin files (nothing is deleted).

You can se on the icons what is 'old file -> disclaimer (marked file)' and 'new base64 file .> bolt'.

Breaking Changes v1 -> v2 OpenHAB

If previously been using this service and upgrading you'll need to migrate OpenHAB way of handling things.

Binding MQTT 1.x (legacy) doesn't work. Please use the updated way of handling MQTT messages with OpenHAB. View wiki for examples. There's also example of how to downgrade to latest release of version 1.

broadlink-mqtt-bridge's Issues

NODE_ENV value of 'production' did not match any deployment config file names

I have setup a new Raspberry Pi 4 with openhab 2.5.9 as per instructions from github. also installed Mosquitto.
openhab is working correctly and Mosquitto aswell.
I have installed broadlink-mqtt-bridge as per instruction. (New Install)
Server starts then stops .
I have created the local.json file as in previous installation on RPI 3 and restored commands folder from backup.
Previous version of broadlink-mqtt-bridge on RPI 3 has been working.
I have also setup a fresh install of openhab 2.5.9 on new RPI 3 and still get same errors accross both platforms

The Broadlink controls 30% of home automation. TV, Roller Blinds, Air Con, Heating.
Since this upgrade no Broadlink control.

Below is screen capture of install and error on sudo service broadlinkbridge status

And it appears it keeps restarting and eventually goes dead.

I have re built both Raspberry Pi 3 and 4 several times and can not figure out the problem

Rm mini3

Le rm mini3 est reconnu mais impossible de lui faire envoyer des commandes. Pas de voyant s'allume pour confirmer l'envoi de la commande. Aucun problème avec le rm pro 3
Comment procéder ?

Latest update broke lot of things

Let me reopen the problem.
In fact I could update to the latest version without issues, but it broke everything.
Now I cannot control anymore from openhab
I always get the error:

[info]: 	Prepare topic: broadlink/light/nec, message: power_on_preset:780f774e7d2a 
[warn]: 	Failed to find file: /srv/openhab2-conf/broadlink-mqtt-bridge/commands/light/nec/power_on_preset:780f774e7d2a.bin

when I ask to play the message on the particular device it actually binds the device to the filename, so it couldn't find it.

moreover now in the UI, the topic is always wrong. If I click to the message to send it creates the topic like this:
Topic* broadlink/srv/openhab2-conf/broadlink-mqtt-bridge/commands/light/nec
Message* power_on_preset
Device ************ (not shown but the id is correct)

If I play from the UI I get this error:

[info]: 	Prepare topic: broadlink/srv/openhab2-conf/broadlink-mqtt-bridge/commands/light/nec, message: power_on_preset 
[warn]: 	Failed to find file: /srv/openhab2-conf/broadlink-mqtt-bridge/commands/srv/openhab2-conf/broadlink-mqtt-bridge/commands/light/nec/power_on_preset.bin 

The topic should be: broadlink/light/nec

Please can you help fix this problem?
Another thing, is it possible to rescan the devices automatically every time the raspberry pi reboots?

Device scan - only 2 devices at a time

I have 3 broad link devices - two are RM mini and one is Pro Plus. The only two devices are discovered after scan. Just after service restart I see both RM mini then when manually run scan I see one RM mini and Pro Plus. It acts as if only two devices can be active at the same time - any ideas ?

MQTT Error 5

Hello fbacker,
I installed your MQTT bridge yesterday.
Installation went fine, just had to change the port because grafana is using the port 3000, too.

I just have one problem, I keep getting this error in the gui:

MQTT Closed MQTT Error { "code": 5 }

my conf is like this:

{ "mqtt": { "host": "192.168.0.2", "port": 1883, "protocol": "mqtt", "subscribeBasePath": "broadlink", "user": "testeduser", "pwd": "testedpassword" }, "recording": { "timeout": { "ir": 30, "rf": 30 }, "path": null }, "gui": { "port": 3001 } }

Credentials were tested with mqtt fx, all other mqtt stuff is working. mqtt broker is running on the same pi, i tried it with 127.0.0.1 too.
Is there anything I did wrong?

TypeError: log is not a function

I have installed using the manual method on https://github.com/fbacker/broadlink-mqtt-bridge/wiki/Installation.

The only difference is that I do not have the /srv/ directory, so I installed in my home directory to prevent requiring elevated user credentials.

On running npm run production I get the following output in the console:

pi@raspberrypi:~/broadlink-mqtt-bridge $ npm run production

Broadlink device is not recognized

A device broadlink rm3 mini is present in network and is found by bridge. But it's type and ID aren't recognized and are set as undefined, which makes it's usage absolutely impossible.
Service restart, device restart and rescan gives no results.
Used the latest bridge version from github. Openhabian on Rpi3B.

New RM mini 3 Version with id 0x27de

Hi, I just bought a new RM mini 3. It was not discovered by broadlinkbridge:

[Info] We've discovered an unknown Broadlink device. This likely won't cause any issues.

Please raise an issue in the GitHub repository (https://github.com/lprhodes/homebridge-broadlink-rm/issues) with details of the type of device and its device type code: "27de". The device is connected to your network with the IP address "192.168.2.112".

I added it to broadlinkjs-rm/index.js line 11 as
rmDeviceTypes[parseInt(0x27de, 16)] = 'Broadlink RM Mini 3 v2';

After this it was discovered. Please add the new device type in the repo.

Support for MQTT login

Hi,

I am trying to config. this with a MQTT login. The usual mqtt login format is username:password@. But this doesn't seems to work. It fail to connect to the MQTT server (both MQTT log and the bridge log confirm this) The bridge is in a docker and so is the MQTT broker. There are other devices connected to the broker and working.

Any idea?

Multiple devices configuration

Hello everyone,
Does anyone know how to use the broadlink-mqtt-bridge V2 with multiple devices?
In the first version, all was working fine.
But, with this new version, I am not able to work with more than 1 device.

Thank you for your help!

Files api allows deletion of files outside the commands folder

Hi,

there seems to be a severe security issue in web.js on line 162:
Link

Calls to 'files delete' are unchecked and can be exploited to delete the entire installation. E.g., I was successful in removing package.json with the following code:

curl --request DELETE \ --url http://<IP_TO_YOUR_INSTALLATION>:3000/api/files \ --header 'content-type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded' \ --data file=package-lock.json

I propose only to allow the deletion of items in the commands subdirectory.

Graphique :3000 impssible

hello, I can't find the access cd /srv/openhab2-conf/ to do the installation. so I can't have access to the graphical interface

what should I do?

RF is played too long

Is there a way to shorten the length of time that the RF command is played back on broadlink? For my device, a short tap is different from a press and hold. The playback seems to be a press and hold for quite a long time, maybe 5 seconds or so.

Command issue

What does this mean?

2021-01-22 21:43:15 [error]: Missing commands

to many parameters in openhab

hello

i want to send commands from openhab, and this is how i define my item

Switch tv "turn on tv" {mqtt=">[mosquitto:broadlink/tv/peerless/turnon:command:ON:play:0d43b4e42518],>[mosquitto:broadlink/tv/peerless:command:OFF:play:0d43b4e42518]"}

but i get an error, because the mqtt binding only let me send 5 parameters with “:”, this is the error from the log

is not a valid outbound configuration: Configuration requires 5 parameters separated by ':'

when i remove one of the “:” its send the message, for example without the “0d43b4e42518” but this is the device id, so it receive message but it will not work as i need to send this id number, and i get message from the broadlink bridge

mqtt failed Multiple devices exists. Please specify one to use.

Convert RF to Bin file

in ./config there's a couple of options in default.json. Do not change this. This is the default settings that can be overwritten. Make your own file ./config/local.json and only add and change values that you want.

NOTE: Changing the default.json will break updates.

Docker image for RPI 4

Hello,

I was trying to install your project, but my docker instance fails with error:

standard_init_linux.go:228: exec user process caused: exec format error

Usually this is due to a docker container being compiled for other platform.
So I suppose that my platform is not supported.
I am using a Raspberry pi 4:

pi@raspberrypi:~ $ uname -a
Linux raspberrypi 5.10.43-v7l+ #1425 SMP Wed Jun 16 18:01:57 BST 2021 armv7l GNU/Linux

I already tried switching to different tag, :latest, :dev-arm32v7, :dev-arm64v8, :dev-armhf all gave the same error.

Can you confirm whether the container should be compatible with the Rpi 4?
If not, would it be possible to add support for it?
If yes, any idea what would be going on in my setup?

Thank you.

How to record TC2 Switches

Features request

Is it possible to get the local time in the logs? I get the UTC time but can you adjust according to the location?
One more thing, is it possible to rename the broadlink devices? (Just in the GUI) like broadlink living room, broadlink kitchen and the possibility to sort them by IP address?
Thank you very much !

Error TypeError: data.deviceModules[0].enterRFSweep

As #25

I am reopening this. Same problem with RF recording. Followed steps as by mountain-pitt (see ref at the top) but didn't solve the problem. Still error:
2019-12-11 16:11:23 [error]: Error TypeError: data.deviceModules[0].enterRFSweep is not a function
Please some assistance to solve this. Running on a PI with broadlink RM2.

How to select a broadlink device

Hi

nice project.

My broadlink devices are well detected.

How in the UI, can i select which broadlink device to record and replay?

How can from MQTT, can i select which broadlink device to record and replay?

Thanks

Mqtt reconnect each 30 seconds

Using the latest version on rpi3b+.
OS: openhabian with mosquitto broker.
bridge is running as service.

In logs each 30 seconds i see next:

2019-12-17 17:31:28 [info]: MQTT Reconnected

2019-12-17 17:32:29 [error]: MQTT Closed

API action to rescan devices

Could you please add api action to rescan devices ? Or auto rescan ?

There is a problem with broadlink devices, RM3, that they don't "like" static ip address. DHCP reservation also doesn't work, because device expects new address after every reboot/reconnect to wifi.

Thank you!

RM Mini 3 D will not learn

Using v.2.3.0 of broadlink-mqtt-bridge with a brand new RM Mini 3 D (type 0x5f36 ).

Unit is discovered using the app, but will not learn any IR codes. When trying to learn, the LED does not light up.

Had similar issues using python-broadlink, which had to be patched to handle a storageError ( mjg59/python-broadlink#371 )

Error when running index.js

Hello Fbacker,
I tried what you said earlier today and it worked. Now I'm getting a new Error. Read the error in the code down below.

I can't reach the webgui on port 3001 (I changed it). It said that the MQTT connection worked.

I reinstalled my openHAB (v2.4 now) and got this error after running "node index.js" in the broadlink-mqtt-bridge directroy:

Only logger run (3001)

Hi bro, thank you for your work, I've been worked with your git for years! thanks first.
I atm have 2.5 openhab (stable) on RPI 4 .
I've installed on clean 2.5 image the git, all works fine..
I've installed Mosqitto on OH.
I've added MQTT Broker, And MQTT Generic with the MQTT as Bridge. (Both online status) Didn't really touched the settings.

And the main problem it's not connect me to the GUI .
Only to the logger, in the Logger (port 3001) it's telling me this:

2021-09-02 21:13:35 [error]: Missing commands

Apprciat your help thank you so much for everything you do!!!!

GUI doesn't support Multiple Broadlink Devices

Device IDs are not working on the GUI.

I enter them and they are ignored.

However if I do the same thing using MQTT it works. Can you please look into this?

This also applies to POST commands which I assume is what the GUI is using

POST

V1 - Not working anymore?

Hi my friend, I've been using your V1 Git, almost 1 year.
I by mastake moved to V2, And you explained me how to back to V1.

And I sucssed moving to V1 But it's not working, after reboot it's not coming up (even when I tried to start the service manually) , and when it's up I can't find devices, rescan ,record, or playing anything.

What should I do, the V2 Will force me to record all my codes again (over 180 codes).. am I right?

Thank you for your support on your git, really apprciat it.

By the way I am using OpenHab as well.

Possibility to specify devices manual if autodetection does not work

How can I specify devices manual in local.json if autodetection does not work?

I could somehow fix the problem by executing the bash script manually and modify the package.json file and changing the line
"broadlinkjs-rm": "git+https://github.com/fbacker/broadlinkjs-rm"
by
"broadlinkjs-rm": **"file:insert_broadlinkjs-rm_path_here"**

and run npm install --production

Is there a way to fix this issue? I'm not sure if I'm the only one having this problem...

Thank you

Failure to discover multiple RM Mini

I have 2 RM Mini running on the same network. I can run and discover each RM mini individually and use it without any problem. However, when I plug both of them on at the same time, only one will be discovered.

update: I have gotten a RM Pro from a friend... I can discover 2 devices, One pro and one mini... but never 2 mini at the same time...

unable to access GUI after update

I have updated to latest version, reinstalled over existing installation.
Running openHAB. The port 3000 is occupied by Grafana.
Kept the same local.json config as before with port 3030 assigned to GUI.
I am able to see the logs in port 3001, identifying the device and existing commands.
Commands are sent and run ok. Still the GUI on port 3030 is not accessible.
It worked ok before the update.

Changing default ports

I have a system also running Grafana tool which also has a web interface on port 3000.
How can I change the bridge web configuration to use a different port?
