Bloomsky Plugin for Homebridge

This plugin for Homebridge will add your personal Bloomsky weather station to HomeKit. You can shop Bloomsky at Amazon for example.

This plugin will expose the following information for each device associated with your Bloomsky account:

• Humidity
• Luminance
• Temperature
• Rain Sensor
• Camera
• Night/Day Status

Since I personally own a SKY1 model from back when it was a Kickstarter, I can only make an educated guess about supporting other models. If you have a newer version, you can help me out with the support.

Installation

1. Install ffmpeg on your computer with libx264 or (h264_omx for Raspberry Pi)
