Hi!

Try the below. There is another example in main.py. If you have any more questions, please ask :)

Best,
Ivan

from pyhap.util import generate_mac
from pyhap.accessories.AM2302 import AM2302
from pyhap.accessories.ShutdownSwitch import ShutdownSwitch
from pyhap.accessory import Bridge
from pyhap.accessory_driver import AccessoryDriver

def create_bridge():
    bridge = Bridge(display_name="pyhap", mac=generate_mac(), pincode=b"203-23-999")
    am2302 = AM2302("DHT22")
    shutdown_switch = ShutdownSwitch("Halt")
    bridge.add_accessory(am2302)
    bridge.add_accessory(shutdown_switch)
    return bridge

def main():
    bridge = create_bridge()
    driver = AccessoryDriver(bridge, port=..., address=..., persist_file=...)
    # signal.signal(signal.SIGINT, driver.signal_handler) optional
    # signal.signal(signal.SIGTERM, driver.signal_handler) optional
    driver.start()

I can not make it work, i can see accessory mode in homekit but not bridge mode

This is odd. What's in your code that starts the Bridge? Is it like the one above? Or if you are using main.py from HAP-python, did you delete the file accessory.pickle before changing from accessory to bridge? (this file contains a cached accessory: after a restart of HAP-python, it reads from it and does not create a new accessory object, i.e. you may have changed the code, but the old state from the file is being used)

from hap-python.

i test it with main.py and the one above, y delete accessory.pickle too

from hap-python.

i just test it with fresh install of respbian, still not working :(

from hap-python.

I just got a clean copy of the project and I can see both Bridge and Accessory (I am using main.py), both from a mac OS and a Raspberry Pi.

Are you using a different mac address for the bridge (generate_mac() provides a random one, so if you are using this - yes)? Have you tried starting it more than once?

Do you still see ONLY the Accessory and not the Bridge?

Oh, avahi, for the mDNS, of course... I need to add this to the setup script. Thanks!

Yes, please let me know if you manage to run it properly (or if you don't) :)
