I've been able to get MySensors working with HomeGenie using the MQTT gateway. It doesn't have two-way communication or software-based pairing yet, but I'll work on those in the future.
@Eric-Buhring great to hear that you managed to get it working. I have used solution like this (arduino+eth. shield+rf24) for some time.
Now I have switched to esp8266+rf24(version with antenna) as a gateway, it is a cool (and smaller) solution
@Eric-Buhring I found that changing the line in the my sensors program that sends the message as below allowed me to use a Contact rather than a Switch
if (value != sentValue2) {
// Value has changed from last transmission, send the updated value
send(msg2.set(value==HIGH?"OPEN":"CLOSED"));
sentValue2 = value;
}
I have been away for a while but it seams quite some of you are experiencing problems, I'll try to take a look at it. If you find any more details, please let me know!
Now the RPi based on a new install of Raspbian Jessie, OpenHab 1.8.0 and Mosquitto is up and running and the ESP8266 MQTT client does connect without any problems. I have not changed anything in the code but Mosquitto is now based on the RPi repository for Jessie and not the mosquito_wheezy one. That seems to have fixed it so those versions are likely different but I have not put any time into checking this.
