Homebridge Logitech Circle Controls

This is a Homebridge plugin that exposes extended controls for Logitech Circle cameras, such as toggles for privacy mode, camera on/off, and LED on/off.

This plugin only works with older cameras using Logitech's web service, not newer cameras based on HomeKit Secure Video.

⚠️ Project in Maintenance Mode ⚠️

This project is in maintenance mode and will only receive bug fixes (if I can even do that). No new features are planned.

My Logi Circle stopped working so I'm not able to use this plugin anymore, which makes new feature development very difficult! 😅

Install

npm i -g homebridge-logi-circle-controls

Minimum Requirements

• Node v12+
• Homebridge v1.3+

Log In

Run the included command line tool to log into your Logitech account:

homebridge-logi-circle-controls login

Use the -h option to get additional help.

Refer to the "How to Log In" wiki page for more detailed information about how to complete the process.

Homebridge Configuration Path

The tool expects that your Homebridge config.json is located in ~/.homebridge.

If this is not the case (e.g. Synology, Docker, etc.), use the -d option to specify the directory where your config.json is located:

homebridge-logi-circle-controls login -d /path/to/homebridge/config/dir

Configure

In your Homebridge config.json file, add a new entry in platforms that looks like this:

{
  "platform": "Logi Circle Controls",

  /* Optional: overrides for names of accessories the platform provides */
  "nameOverrides": {
    "camera": "<Optional: the desired name of the camera switch | Default: 'Camera'>",
    "led": "<Optional: the desired name of the LED switch | Default: 'LED'>",
    "recording": "<Optional: the desired name of the recording switch | Default: 'Recording'>",
    "nightVisionMode": "<Optional: the desired name of the night vision mode switch | Default: 'Night Vision'>",
    "nightVisionIR": "<Optional: the desired name of the night vision IR switch | Default: 'Night IR'>"
  }
}
