hysen-mqtt | MQTT gateway for Hysen Floor Thermostats

hysen-mqtt is a Python library typically used in Internet of Things (IoT) applications. hysen-mqtt has no bugs, it has no vulnerabilities, it has build file available, it has a Permissive License and it has low support. You can download it from GitHub.

hysen-mqtt provides a Hass.io addon for running an MQTT gateway for Hysen floor thermostats. Hysen floor thermostats are very inexpensive Chinese wall-mounted thermostat units supporting external NTC temperature sensors and up to 16 A of heating current. They are sold on multiple brands such as Anself, Beok, Floureon or Decdeal. The devices are based on a Broadlink chipset. The manufacturer provides a rudimentary phone app for both Android and iOS. There exist some bindings for common OSS home automation software--I myself, among others, have worked on the Home Assistant binding. For Home Assistant, in particular, the binding has not been merged to the main project, and I remain hesitant to do so because of the exotic protocol, implied maintenance burden and other factors. I recently converted my open Home Assistant installation to the fully Dockerized Hass.io platform. Instead of adding the custom binding component to the Home Assistant process, I thought it would be a good idea to implement it as a separate microservice, using MQTT as the API. That way, if the Home Assistant internal APIs change, the Hysen gateway will be unaffected, and, more importantly, if/when there are stability issues in the Hysen binding, they won't affect the whole Home Assistant installation. I recently found an existing project with very similar goals, but targeting OpenHAB integration instead. It probably would be quite easy to wrap that project into a Hass.io addon with the same end result.
