More Information

About the plugin

This plugin exposes Cisco Meraki MT sensor telemetry to HomeKit: temperature,
humidity, door (contact), CO2, and indoor air quality (score, PM2.5, TVOC)
sensors, polled via the official Meraki Dashboard API v1.

It is a maintained next-generation fork of the unmaintained
homebridge-meraki-mt-sensor (MIT), rewritten for current Homebridge:
dynamic platform with cached bridged accessories, Homebridge 1.8/2.0 support,
onGet handlers with HapStatusError, and a config schema for the settings UI.

Overlap with existing verified plugins

The only verified Meraki plugin is homebridge-meraki-control, which controls
Meraki Dashboard network/client settings (exposed as switches). It does not
expose MT environmental sensor readings, so the functionality does not overlap.

Requirements checklist

  • Dynamic platform: accessories are registered via registerPlatformAccessories,
    restored from cache, and unregistered when removed from the config.
  • Runs on Node.js 22 and 24 (engines enforced), Homebridge 1.8+ and 2.x.
  • Installs cleanly and does not start unless configured; no post-install
    scripts; no TTY or non-standard startup parameters required.
  • Implements the Homebridge Plugin Settings GUI (config.schema.json).
  • No analytics or tracking — the only outbound calls are to the Meraki API
    configured by the user.
  • Writes nothing to disk.
  • All errors are caught and logged; read failures are reported to HomeKit as
    SERVICE_COMMUNICATION_FAILURE.
  • Published to npm (latest: 2.1.0), GitHub releases with notes for every
    version, issues enabled.

    • Config Schema JSON: schema is invalid - required should not be a boolean property on individual fields.

    Both config schema issues are fixed in v2.1.1 (now published as latest): per-field boolean required flags replaced with object-level required arrays, and a top-level platform name property added.
