So for the Zigbee Tuya devices, you need a Tuya Zigbee hub?
do you have a tuya Zigbee hub? if yes can you share a model?
Yes. Or use the Tuya Zigbee app.
When should we expect devices that weâve submitted, to start being added please?
Doekse,
I have the following Tuya devices in my network that I would like to operate via the Homey:

Now I have installed the Homey CLI with the Docker and Javascript, and can also log in to Homey via the Command prompt. However, thatâs where it ends, probably something still needs to be done to retrieve further information from the modules, but I have no idea how.
Can I find that somewhere?
I also have a single switch, a double switch, a single dimmer, a double dimmer and a Zigbee switch as a spare in the house, which I can also send to make the adjustments in the app if that is useful.
Yours sincerely,
Ron MonĂŠ
Ron,
Create a new issue here (one for each device seems logical)
Thereâs a guide present in the new issue template
Iâll quote it here fyc:
To request a new device, please run the Tuya app locally using Homey CLI.
$ git clone git@github.com:athombv/com.tuya.git
$ cd com.tuya
$ homey app run
Then pair a âLightâ, even if your device is not a light. Watch the logging closely for Device: and copy-paste the JSON in this issue.
Without this information, we cannot add support for your device, and the issue will be closed.
For example:
2024-06-06T14:11:59.852Z [log] [Homey:xxxxxx] [ManagerDrivers] [Driver:light] Device: {"active_time":1717491339,"biz_type":0,"category":"dj","create_time":1717491339,"icon":"smart/icon/bay1582725542891RIK5/42feb5d93f5e13800cf2ade23ea49459.png","id":"xxxxxx","ip":"xxxxxx","lat":"52.25","local_key":"xxxxx","lon":"6.3","model":"SH.63.204","name":"G95 Gold","online":true,"owner_id":"xxxxx","product_id":"xxxxxx","product_name":"G95 Gold","status":[{"code":"switch_led","value":true},{"code":"work_mode","value":"white"},{"code":"bright_value_v2","value":223},{"code":"temp_value_v2","value":0},{"code":"scene_data_v2","value":"{\"scene_num\":1,\"scene_units\":[{\"bright\":200,\"h\":0,\"s\":0,\"temperature\":0,\"unit_change_mode\":\"static\",\"unit_gradient_duration\":13,\"unit_switch_duration\":14,\"v\":0}]}"},{"code":"countdown_1","value":0},{"code":"control_data","value":""},{"code":"remote_switch","value":true}],"sub":false,"time_zone":"+02:00","uid":"xxxxxx","update_time":1717671377,"uuid":"xxxxxx"}
Finally, please link to more information about the device, e.g. the manufacturerâs website.
Be prepard to wait a few months and for no one to reply to you with a timeline or any information for that matter, regarding the actual process for adding new devices to the app.
(Note: The Tuya Cloud app is still available for daily use imho)
Yeah, the Tuya project it seems a bit lost in âthe 
with LGâ maybe 
And remember, this is still just a test app.
@Doekse Any update about âhow to write code for a device driver and how to perform a PR for dummiesâ?

Or perhaps Athom has found out that it takes more than just good intentions to actually write and maintain a Homey app 
As I understood they hoped we users will write code for requested devices.
But now with all those millions going roundâŚ
Not very stimulating.
Like the users did with the previous app? 
While a cursory glance in its forum thread would tell them that most users just post a link to Aliexpress and think thatâll be enough to get a device supported.
Well letâs just wait and see what happens there. I am not too worried.
I did also share some of the JSON strings in the issues. And looking at Github, I am not the only one. Well, for now it is working for some basic features.
Before any wild theories start circulating, hereâs an update:
I just wrapped up a meeting with Tuya, and weâre on track to release the first version of our app by the end of this week or the beginning of next week 
With the app, we will also release knowledge base articles that provide in-depth guidance on connecting devices to Homey and requesting new devices via Homey CLI.
For now, we havenât added any new devices because we want to ensure that the currently available devices work as expected. Weâre still resolving some bugs with the lights and plugs.
Weâve also made progress on integrating cameras, but there are limitations. Tuya doesnât provide access to their snapshots or streams. So, while you can control camera functions like tilt, pan, siren, and zoom, viewing the feed isnât possible.
After the first release, weâll start adding new devices in batches. The first batch will likely include the following:
Stay tuned for more updates, and thank you for your patience!

Great work! Thanks for the update! Highly appreciated.
Sounds like the current Eufy functionality, right?

I havenât used that app myself yet, but its functionality seems very familiar indeed.
Is it normal that if I try to add an âOtherâ Tuya device, even if I already connected the Tuya account, it keeps asking me to conenct instead of letting me select the device? I can see in the SmartLife app that Homey is correctly connected.
AFAIK Home Assistant supports snapshots and streams with its official TuYa integration (although streams can be a bit of a hit-or-miss depending on the camera model).
Also, it sounds like youâre suggesting that Homey supports video streams?
With âconnectâ you mean login, or?
btw Login should be a one time action when youâre adding your first Tuya device.
Is it similar to this issue?
Interesting, didnât know that info is visible, also in the Tuya Smart app. Thx!
Yes, connecting the account via logging in.
In smartlife, if you go under settings, account and security, the 1st item under âAuthorization managementâ (sorry I have the app in Italian so Iâm not sure whatâs that in english).
thanks for the link, Iâll check. EDIT: no itâs different, I get asked Tuya password again and never was able to select any device.
)?
