Connecting autonomous bluetooth device

[cranetm]

Hi all,
I have autonomous, arduino-based feeder which works from USB supply and battery at the same time to be always online (I don’t want make my pets hungry).
Programmed configuration for feeder is working hours and doses.
I have working openhab2 on rpi3 and bluetooth module for arduino.
So please help me with next:

1. how to connect(bind) bluetooth device to openhab?
2. how to receive my custom configuration through ble to device?
3. how to make UI for creating such configuration on the fly?

For UI i need timepicker and input number-field and “+” button to add more this configurations.

Also I need some statistic from device like last feeding time and maybe some chart with all feedings, and possibility run feeder immediately (thats easiest part).

Seriously guys? No one can help me around 24 hours.
I want to make my home smart, i have planned a lot of sensors in whole home (and outside too) and openhab looks good in this, but i want to start from my Feeder and debug all processes with it.
Please, give me something.

Event Scheduler

Hi All First of all, Thanks Kai for dedicating so much of yout time and other resources, you have really created something wonderful and amazing here, i am sure you folks have heard it a million times, but i haven’t said it yet As mentioned by many users on google groups, is there a plan to support event scheduler on openhab2? I know we can use GCal binding with openhab, but that doesnt provide the flexibilty as we have for switching on and off the lights. Regards Rishabbh

Setting up Bluetooth binding in 2017

Hello. Apologies if this is documented and I’ve just failed to find it. I just set up Openhab2 on my Raspberry Pi, and not yet having a lot of home automation hardware, I thought I’d begin by setting up presence detection via bluetooth. I just want to detect whether my phone is present, and eventually automate temperature and other controls based on that. I found a wiki page documenting the process of rebuilding the bluetooth bindings to work under Linux. Didn’t look too complicated, and I’ve u…

Anova culinary bluetooth binding

Since there’s no standard for this sort of thing (and barely any standards for BLE devices at all), it won’t be part of any BLE binding. The OH2 BLE binding provides (or will provide!) the services required to interface to BLE devices, but it would still (likely) need a standalone binding to decode the BLE characteristics that this device exports (assuming that information is even available?).

Thank you very much.
As i can see, there is only one more less normally working solution for ble binding is about using MQTT.
But it looks like hack over OH.
I’ll be continue researching.
