Summarize of the problem/feature request

feather request support homekit protocol

Expected behavior

ESPEASY can connect to apple homekit directly without using bridge

Actual behavior

for example, the temperature from the sensor will show in apple home app even the smart home controller, like openhab is down.

TD-er commented 6 years ago

Do you know of any programming examples showing how to connect to Apple Homekit? I don't have anything from Apple.

fanlessfan commented 6 years ago

there esp-homekit library and esp-homekit-demo examples. https://github.com/maximkulkin/esp-homekit https://github.com/maximkulkin/esp-homekit-demo

As far as I remember when I read about it this protocol is very memory hungry! I doubt it can be easily matching the ESPasy framework!

fanlessfan commented 6 years ago

It definitely works on ESP8266, but no idea of espeasy framework

papperone commented 6 years ago

not saying it does not work, but I've read it requires up to 400kb of memory and it has been designed to be running under RTOS

fanlessfan commented 6 years ago

you are right. it's RTOS and might not fit current espeasy. but it's great feature
