Home Assistant Add-on: TuyaGateway

Installation

Follow these steps to get the add-on installed on your system:

  1. Navigate in your Home Assistant frontend to Supervisor -> Add-on Store.
  2. Click on the three dots in the upper left, then Repositories, and add this repository: https://github.com/sjthespian/addon-tuyagateway
  3. Find the "TuyaGateway" add-on and click it.
  4. Click on the "INSTALL" button.

How to use

  1. No configuration is necessary for the Tuya Gateway if you are running MQTT on your Home Assistant server or to run GizmoCaster on its default port. If not, in the TuyaGateway add-on configuration, perform the following:
    • Add your MQTT username and password if any.
    • Update MQTT host IP address and port if you aren't running MQTT on your Home Assistant server.
    • Optionally change the GismoCaster port.
  2. Click the Start button to start the add-on.
  3. Check the Log tab to insure the add-on started and is communicating to your MQTT broker.

NOTE: GismoCaster may take a while to start the first time as it has to create and populate the database

Configuration

Optional add-on configuration for Tuya Gateway if no MQTT server running on HA:

mqttuser: ""
mqttpass: ""
mqtthost: 127.0.0.1
mqttport: 1883

GizmoCaster will automatically have the mqtt database values configured from the installed mqtt broker or the settings above if one is not running on each start. This will override the values entered through the Web UI.

Option mqttuser

Username for authenticating to the MQTT broker

Option mqttpass

Password for authenticating to the MQTT broker

Option mqtthost

IP or hostname of the MQTT broker. The default should work if your MQTT broker is running on your Home Assitant instance.

Option mqttport

Network port of the MQTT server. The default should work if your MQTT broker is running on the standard port.

For example:

mqttuser: mqttuser
mqttpass: mqttpass
mqtthost: 127.0.0.1
mqttport: 1883
