Development of the matterbridge-gardena-smart-system plugin

Hello everyone,

I started a few days ago developing a matterbridge plugin to try to connect my Gardena system to Gladys by going through Matter.

For those who don’t know, Gardena is a well-known brand of all kinds of garden tools and for a few years now they have offered their “Gardena Smart System” which allows devices to be connected to the cloud.

The big strength of Gardena, aside from product quality, is that their API is open and accessible, so it’s easy for developers to get started.

So I started developing a matterbridge plugin using the excellent template provided: https://github.com/Luligu/matterbridge-plugin-template

And thanks to AI we can get something running quickly! :

So it’s far from finished, I still need to connect to the cloud but with my Copilot it should work.

I wanted to test the waters to see if people are interested or if it’s just me :slight_smile:

Awesome!!

Matterbridge is exactly the perfect use case for that, I think :slight_smile:

Once you’re done, if you can make us a small « Matterbridge plugin development » tutorial, that would be great :wink:

Hi, I opened a ticket to test your factory :slight_smile:

I had a first version that wasn’t conclusive, I replied. Does anyone know why it’s not taken into account by the factory?

I think @pierre-gilles needs to add a needs-revision tag for this to be taken into account

I think the factory processes 1 response per day, so 1 issue per day, and takes the one with the oldest response :wink:
Yours should be processed normally at 8:00 PM tonight :wink:
And tomorrow it will be mine for Daikin :slight_smile:

It seems the factory had a bug:

I’m doing what @pierre-gilles suggested in this case :wink:

Edit: @pierre-gilles asked me to delete the bot’s last comment and restore the previous tag, but I don’t have the option to delete the last comment.

I’m just restoring the previous tag, and if @pierre-gilles comes by, he might be able to delete the bot’s last comment.

OK, thank you very much :wink:

Hi everyone :slight_smile: So happy to see that the factory ran smoothly while I was away!

I’ve unlocked what I could quickly this morning before work, so all the fixes should be addressed.

I think there are some improvements to be made to the factory, especially I think we can increase the frequency of fixes, as they consume far fewer credits than the initial developments, which are quite expensive in tokens.

Thanks, I got a response but it still doesn’t work, I checked the code and I can see the issue. I made a complete response, I think it will work now.

It’s all working! :joy:

That little moment of stress and excitement when you press the switch in Gladys.

And boom, it starts—it’s really amazing! :blush:

@pierre-gilles can we leave the issue open if I want to add more features from the API? How does that work?

Excellent!!

It’s really amazing, I was on vacation for a week and the AI released a plugin without any action from me. I’m so happy it could unblock you!

Yes, that’s the idea.

Now we might need to think about a command to « publish » the plugin so it’s available on NPM and therefore to the entire Mattebridge ecosystem.
