Hello openHAB community, I am currently a student exploring Matter (formerly known as connectedhomeip or CHIP) and trying to figure out a way to communicate with it via code (Java). I thought it might be a good idea to ask a few questions regarding this topic in this community. Is there current…

[image] digitaldan: My plan is to get a proof of concept working, which requires loading the matter.js core along with a small sample typescript app and then providing it with Java implementations of the required network, storage and crypto , which so far seems very doable. This is also still i…

[image] kjknauss: Anyway, willing to test if/when the OH binding can support. If you are able to test with the binding posted here and send me the JSON data from the logs i can look to add support for it. [image] DrRSatzteil: Does anyone have any experience how this works? The problem…

And a little update on status since i have been out for a while. I have been working on getting the other side of the binding, namely exposing openHAB items as Matter Endpoints. This essentially makes openHAB a Matter Bridge and then can be controlled locally by Alexa/Siri/Goolgle much like the H…

[image] digitaldan: If you are able to test with the binding posted here and send me the JSON data from the logs i can look to add support for it. Is there a specific OH version needed? I typically run Milestones, but can spin up a current snapshot if needed.

[image] kjknauss: Is there a specific OH version needed? I don’t think the last milestone has the UI changes which makes adding matter devices easier, you might want to spin up a snapshot instance to just add this device and get the JSON in the DEBUG logs. The next milestone will have everyt…

Got it. I know the BAF app provides the code for commissioning, so I may not need advanced UI. I’ll try one night this week (PST, San Diego) and report back.

Ok thanks, that does not sound too promising. However I think I made a mistake anyway. I think the bulb works via WiFi only and not via Thread (makes sense as it’s not battery powered).

[image] kjknauss: Is there a specific OH version needed? I typically run Milestones, but can spin up a current snapshot if needed. Milestone 3 will come next weekend. Just letting you know, maybe you want to wait for the milestone then,

This is fantastic! I find I rarely open the OH app to control things anymore since voice is so convenient and works very well for me. In fact my main UI looks pathetic, used mainly for testing devices these days.
