How to add the device in Homekit app ?

Here's what I get when I start HomeBridge:

Here's my config.json file:

{ "bridge": { "name": "Homebridge_MForge", "username": "A1:BC:XX:XX:XX:XX", "port": 52XXX, "pin": "XXX-XX-XXX" },

    "accessories": [{
            "accessory": "GarageGateOpener",
            "name": "Garage",
            "switchPin": 23,
            "switchPressTimeInMs": 800,
            "switchValue": 1,
            "closedSensorPin": 24,
            "closedSensorValue": 1,
            "openSensorPin": 25,
            "openSensorValue": 1,
            "pollInMs": 4000,
            "opensInSeconds": 20
    }],

    "platform": "TuyaPlatform",
    "name": "TuyaPlatform",
    "devices": [{
                    "name": "Tuya Outlet Device 1",
                    "id": "45412206dc4f22e1XXXX,
                    "key": "fb27a3b1d226XXXX"
            },
            {
                    "name": "Tuya Dimmer Switch Device 2",
                    "id": "45412206dc4f22e1XXXX",
                    "key": "fb27a3b1d226XXXX",
                    "type": "dimmer"
            }
    ]

}

Am I doing this right ? I can't figure out how to add my device in the Homekit App. I'm using a CE smart switch with the Tuya Smart App. Everything work in the Tuya app. Thanks ! :)

TuyAPI doesn't use that port; so I suspect something else is wrong. Maybe try rebooting your system?

Try removing the TuyaPlatform from your config.json and see if Homebridge starts.

Some errors in your Json code. When you want to see if your code works, go to https://jsonlint.com/ and paste it in the window and press validate json.

but try this

{ "bridge": { "name": "Homebridge_MForge", "username": "A1:BC:XX:XX:XX:XX", "port": 52XXX, "pin": "XXX-XX-XXX" }, "accessories": [{ "accessory": "GarageGateOpener", "name": "Garage", "switchPin": 23, "switchPressTimeInMs": 800, "switchValue": 1, "closedSensorPin": 24, "closedSensorValue": 1, "openSensorPin": 25, "openSensorValue": 1, "pollInMs": 4000, "opensInSeconds": 20 }],

"platform": "TuyaPlatform",
"name": "TuyaPlatform",
"devices": [{
        "name": "Tuya Outlet Device 1",
        "id": "45412206dc4f22e1XXXX",
        "key": "fb27a3b1d226XXXX",
                     "type": "generic"
    },
    {
        "name": "Tuya Dimmer Switch Device 2",
        "id": "45412206dc4f22e1XXXX",
        "key": "fb27a3b1d226XXXX",
        "type": "dimmer"
    }
]

}

You can also ad "ip" if the plugin has a problem finding your switches

like this

{ "bridge": { "name": "Homebridge_MForge", "username": "A1:BC:XX:XX:XX:XX", "port": 52XXX, "pin": "XXX-XX-XXX" }, "accessories": [{ "accessory": "GarageGateOpener", "name": "Garage", "switchPin": 23, "switchPressTimeInMs": 800, "switchValue": 1, "closedSensorPin": 24, "closedSensorValue": 1, "openSensorPin": 25, "openSensorValue": 1, "pollInMs": 4000, "opensInSeconds": 20 }],

"platform": "TuyaPlatform",
"name": "TuyaPlatform",
"devices": [{
        "name": "Tuya Outlet Device 1",
        "id": "45412206dc4f22e1XXXX",
        "key": "fb27a3b1d226XXXX",
        "ip": "xxx.xxx.x.101",
                     "type": "generic"
    },
    {
        "name": "Tuya Dimmer Switch Device 2",
        "id": "45412206dc4f22e1XXXX",
        "key": "fb27a3b1d226XXXX",
        "ip": "xxx.xxx.x.102",
        "type": "dimmer"
    }
]

}

(I'm copy/pasting this into every open issue and PR.)

This plugin is now deprecated, as I don't have enough time to maintain it along with other TuyAPI related projects. Please use AMoo-Miki's homebridge-tuya-lan plugin instead. (Or, you can continue to use this plugin, but I will not be giving support or adding any new devices.)

I'm sorry about this, but this plugin is taking a disproportionate amount of my time that I believe is better spent making TuyAPI more stable and adding more tools to the ecosystem.
