Have you looked at the new Smartthings integration on Home-Assistant? Not sure if your specific sensor has been implemented yet but still worth having a look.
Yeah. Having to open my firewall to allow a connection from the Internet to a minimally secured Linux box running multiple unknown, open-source components that control access to the house as well as the alarm system is a deal-breaker.
I'm a security architect, so I'm a bit on the paranoid side. :)
@ratsputin well I wouldn't suggest doing that.. throw it behind something like nginx with mod_security and only expose the webhook for smartthings. I can give you the specs if you want to lock it down as much as possible. Also the push updates are digitally signed & validated by the integration. I think that gets down to an acceptable level of risk?
It looks like the bridge is no longer necessary with 0.90 as an open port isn't a requirement anymore. I'm going to reconfigure everything to go that route and see how things perform.
Every 15 minutes, I'm logging the following event in the SmartThings MQTT Bridge Device Handler events list:
{"error":"Bad Request","message":"child \"body\" fails because [child \"value\" fails because [\"value\" must be a string]]","statusCode":400}
Everything else is working fine. Can I get some guidance as to where to start troubleshooting this?
I'm mainly pursuing this because I have an issue with my GoControl Smart Garage Door Controller. I'm not getting status updates until there's an actual event even though the polling interval is ~30 minutes. This leaves it in an unknown state and unable to be controlled in Home Assistant until the door is opened/closed.
