Configuring Openhab for tasmota things

[hafniumzinc (T)]

Great, I’m better at that!

Have a look through this link, and let me know if it helps:

[OH2] Tasmota flashed Sonoff Basic with DHT22 via MQTT

Overview I have a number of Sonoff Basic R2 switches around the house, attached to desk lamps, floor standing lamps, or spliced into the wiring for the outdoor porch light. As I already had the ESP8266 inside the Sonoffs at various locations, why not try and add a temperature sensor to them?! Note that whilst I used a DHT22, Tasmota supports a number of different sensors. Just ensure you choose the correct sensor within Tasmota’s Module parameters, and ensure that the name of the sensor is corr…

In short:

1. Connect the Tasmota device to your wifi network.
2. Correctly setup the MQTT settings on the Tasmota device.
3. Define an MQTT broker in a things file pointing to your Mosquitto broker.
4. Add the Tasmota device to the MQTT broker via a things file (or the same things file)
5. Connect items to the channels defined in step 4.
6. Add the items to your sitemap, or into rules, or whatever else you want to do with him.

I can help with these steps if you get stuck!
