Use the new built-in Bluetooth integration in HA? #20

Open Nedevski opened 2 years ago

Nedevski commented 2 years ago

Hi, since HA now supports Bluetooth natively, is it possible for this integration to use that instead of a dedicated ESP32?

I am not sure if it's possible, but if you have one less thing that can fail that should be better.

Case is, that HA should be placed really close to lock in this case. Don't know if it's convenient.

My server is right next to my door (in a closet) and I'm sure many people have their Raspberry Pi close to their doors also.

If there can be a switch to use internal bluetooth OR tasmota bluetooth OR the custom one, that would be great! I don't know how hard it will be, just thinking it would be very cool.

+1 for this suggestion I also have Home Assistant with a bluetooth dongle, i'd like to control the lock without the esp32
