|
The ``xiaomi_miflora`` sensor platform lets you track the output of Xiaomi MiFlora Bluetooth Low Energy
|
|
devices using the :doc:`/components/esp32_ble_tracker`. This component will track the
|
|
temperature, humidity and optionally the battery level of the MiFlora device every time the sensor
|
|
sends out a BLE broadcast. Note that contrary to other implementations, ESPHome can track as many
|
|
MiFlora devices at once as you want.

|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
|
|
This integration requires the MiFlora device to have a recent firmware version, see
|
|
https://github.com/esphome/issues/issues/260#issuecomment-487684720 for more info.
|
|
|
|
The ``battery_level`` does not appear to work with some firmware versions of the device (the other sensors
|
|
do work though). See https://github.com/esphome/issues/issues/107 for more information.

Setting Up Devices
|
|
------------------
|
|
|
|
Before you can even scan for the MiFlora sensor, you need to activate it using the Flower Care app. Set it up there and you'll be able to discover it.
|
|
|
|
To set up Xiaomi MiFlora devices you first need to find their MAC Address so that ESPHome can
|
|
identify them. So first, create a simple configuration without any ``xiaomi_miflora`` entries like so:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: yaml
|
|
|
|
esp32_ble_tracker:
|
|
|
|
After uploading the ESP32 will immediately try to scan for BLE devices such as the Xiaomi MiFlora. When
|
|
it detects these sensors, it will automatically parse the BLE message print a message like this one:
|
|
|
|
.. code::
|
|
|
|
Xiaomi MiFlora 94:2B:FF:5C:91:61 Got temperature=23.4°C
|
|
|
|
Note that it can sometimes take some time for the first BLE broadcast to be received.
|
|
|
|
Then just copy the address (``94:2B:FF:5C:91:61``) into a new ``sensor.xiaomi_miflora`` platform entry like
|
|
in the configuration example at the top.
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
|
|
The ESPHome Xiaomi integration listens passively to packets the xiaomi device sends by itself.
|
|
ESPHome therefore has no impact on the battery life of the device.
