Installation

  1. Install homebridge using: npm install -g homebridge
  2. Install this plugin using: npm install -g homebridge-neato
  3. If you don't have a Neato account yet create one here.
  4. Update your configuration file. See the sample below.

Configuration

Add the following information to your config file. Change the values for email and password.

Simple

"platforms": [
	{
		"platform": "NeatoVacuumRobot",
		"email": "YourEmail",
		"password": "YourPassword"
	}
]

Advanced

The following config contains advanced optional settings.

The parameter refresh sets an interval in seconds that is used to update the robot state in the background. This is only required for automations based on the robot state. The default value is auto which means that the update is automatically enabled while cleaning and disabled while not cleaning. You can set a value in seconds e.g. 120 to enable background updates even when the robot is not cleaning. You can also disable background updates completely by setting the value 0. This might be required if you experience timeouts in the app because you have other home automation apps that are connected to your robot.

The parameter disabled accepts a list of switches/sensors that can be disabled in the neato homekit plugin (e.g. dock, dockstate, eco, schedule).

"platforms": [
	{
		"platform": "NeatoVacuumRobot",
		"email": "YourEmail",
		"password": "YourPassword",
		"refresh": "120",
		"disabled": ["dock", "dockstate", "eco", "nogolines", "extracare", "schedule"]
	}
]

Tested robots

  • BotVac Connected (Firmware 2.2.0)
  • BotVac D3 Connected
  • BotVac D5 Connected (Firmware 4.0.0, 4.3.0)

The plugin should work with D4 and D6 as well. If you have connected neato robot, please tell me about your experience with this plugin.
