Homebridge Relays

Controls 4 channel relays with a Raspberry Pi using HomeKit.

Hardware

The hardware is quite simple to construct.

1. Raspberry Pi 3 Model B
2. 4-relay module pins are connected to 4 GPIO pins.

The raspberry pi can then control the state of the relays.

Installation

1. Install homebridge using: sudo npm install --unsafe-perm -g homebridge
2. Install this plugin using: sudo npm install -g --unsafe-perm homebridge-relays
3. Update your configuration file. See config-sample.json in this repository for a sample.
