Sharptools can also provide dashboards now. It is free to use for a single dashboard, paid when you want more.

I will not order a new homey pro until there is a good dashboard. I will keep running my home assistant until then. Sparklines, resizable charts (line, column, area), doghnuts, gauges… plain cards with information…

Insights is good but that is just for a particular set of devices. A dashboard should provide all kinds of data from multiple sources at a glance. Resizable to ones needs… that would be awesome!

what you guys have accomplished so far, this should be a peace of cake…

Hi,

I am new at Homey (I am using it since yesterday) but I used Domoticz for 9 years nad Homehabit from 2 (I think it is best home automation application on android).

I read Your post about MQTT but I try to do that on Homey but with no success ☹  
What IP I need to write on Homehabit app? Local Ip of my Homey?

What exactly settings I need to check in Mqtt croker, client and hub on homey?

I started broker, client and hub but Homehabit couldn’t connect:(

I will be very gratefull if You answer my questions.

I really want to use Homehabit app to rule my homey:)

Best regards

Hello,

For the broker you need the fill in the port number. Normally port 1883.  
For the client you need to fill in your homey`s IP adress and port number 1883.  
And for the hub you can check if it is running under settings and under devices you can check if there are devices.

When I reboot the homey, I need to restart MQTT hub before it works. ( I made a flow for it)

In Homehabit you need to fill in the IP of your Homey and port 1883.  
Easiest is to check with a program like [http://mqtt-explorer.com](http://mqtt-explorer.com) for the MQTT commands.  
These commands you can use in Homehabit.  
Homehabit will not discover the mqtt commands.

Good luck.

Thank You very much form answer but nothing works ☹  
I set everything and I can’t connect with Homehabit and mqtt-explorer.

I really don’t know what am I doing wrong:(

I need to open port 1883 on my router?

</div>

Are you sure you have the correct ip-adress?  
Normaly rhere is no need to open port 1883 on your router.  
In the app setting from the broker, client and hub is a tab to see the logs.  
Is there any info in the logs?

An insight of how MQTT works (you probably did not use an user/passw and did not use an MQTT Broker):

You can make it work! (At least I hope so grin ) When I forgot something, or something is wrong: feel free to point it out.

Hi,

it started to work. In broker I added usr and password but I didn’t click plus button 🙂

Thanks for help

I will try to add some devices to Homehabit

Is there a simple way to add all my devices from homey to home habit? In Homehabit I connected MQTT but there is nothing to add in devices. I try to add them but this is a lot of work 🙂

Good to hear it works.  
Maybe a login is necessary.  
I am afraid there is no easy way too add the devices. It is a lot of work.

I added two sensors with success but I don’t know if I have strength to do that for all my stuff:)

Any news or hints about a dashboard or a revamp of the GUI? (It feels a bit outdated)

Love to see some cards that can be resized, sparklines/charts and other metrics that can be shown directly on the dashboard as well as the action buttons to kick off some flows.

I have a tablet in my kitchen that one would like to see various details at a glance!

I am aware there are alternative solutions given a gap in an OEM (vendor) dashboard/control panel solution. So I reached out to Homey support to convey my dismay that such functionality is not a core feature set.

Homey support informed me **Homey are developing dashboard/control panel functionality** and it is on their roadmap. When? Didn’t say so it might be 3 months or another 3 years, however they are definitely doing it. Good news for Homey owners (hopefully) and hope it is a polished solution (easy to use while providing a wealth of variety and configuration)
