Esp-Monitor: архитектура и развертывание self-hosted IoT-платформы для микроконтроллеров ESP

Одним из самых вдохновляющих моментов в разработке микроконтроллерных устройств является их первая установка и запуск в локальной сети. И этот же момент может превратиться в настоящий ад, когда процедуру приходится повторять десятки или сотни раз. Множество однотипных контроллеров, развертываемых одновременно, требуют часов монотонного конфигурирования — времени, которое любому инженеру хотелось бы провести с большей творческой пользой. Для решения этой проблемы был разработан легкий open-source сервис с открытым исходным кодом и условным названием «esp-monitor» .

Not sure if I repeat myself but #esphome is a gorgeous piece of tech. Love it. Even supports #IPv6 by default.
#Tasmota on the other hand wants me to build my own images. Dunno why that is though *shrug*

M5Stack Core2: OWON Multimeter & Atorch DC Load in Home Assistant

https://www.commander1024.de/wordpress/2026/06/m5stack-core2-owon-multimeter-atorch-dc-load-in-home-assistant/

Internet service outage at my home since yesterday and all the smart home functions still work just fine thanks to @homeassistant and @esphome.
Except for the Google Home mini speakers, which can't even set a timer without internet connectivity (the only thing I still use them for).

Working on phase 3 of my Buurtmelder (“Neighbourhood Notifier") project, where I'll be rolling out the terminals to our neighbours.

In case you're interested in what it does: it intercepts RF signals emitted by alarm systems and broadcasts those signals across a group of terminals (using MQTT, with a LoRa backup in case the Internet connection is down). Those terminals could be installed at your neighbours’ homes. That way, an alarm (burglar, panic, SOS) can be shared with people that live close by and can respond quickly to an alarm situation in your home.

Firmware is based on ESPHome, so Home Assistant integration comes built-in. But the terminal will run completely standalone.

Если задача: удалённо “дозвониться” до устройства (кормушки) с Бали при блокировках сервисов, то вариантов несколько — от простых до надёжных.

1. Через интернет (если кормушка умная)

Если кормушка с приложением:

Используй VPN (WireGuard/OpenVPN) → самый стабильный вариант

Альтернатива: Cloudflare WARP (часто проходит там, где обычные VPN режут)

Если приложение китайское (Tuya/Smart Life) — иногда работает даже без VPN

2. Через SIP / VoIP (если “дозвон” — это реально звонок)

Если кормушка реагирует на входящий вызов:

Подними SIP-аккаунт (например через Asterisk или провайдера)

Подключайся через:

Zoiper

Linphone

Обход блокировок:

SIP через TLS + SRTP

или через VPN (проще)

3. Через Telegram-бота (самый практичный обход)

Если есть доступ к устройству/розетке:

Подключаешь кормушку к умной розетке

Розетку — к Telegram-боту (через Home Assistant / Node-RED)

Управляешь командами:

/feed
/power_on

Плюс: Telegram почти везде работает даже при блокировках.

4. Через собственный сервер (надежный вариант)

Поднимаешь VPS (например в Европе)

На нём:

WireGuard

или reverse tunnel (FRP / Tailscale)

Кормушка/дом подключены к нему

Ты заходишь через тот же сервер

5. Экстренный “колхоз”

Если ничего не работает:

Старый смартфон рядом с кормушкой

Автоответ + приложение управления

Звонишь → управляешь удалённо

---

Коротко по выбору:

Быстро и просто → VPN

Стабильно и надолго → VPS + WireGuard

Удобно в быту → Telegram + умная розетка

Если скажешь модель кормушки — дам точную схему под неё (там сильно зависит от экосистемы: Tuya, Xiaomi, Petkit и т.д.).

Ок, по Xiaomi-кормушке ситуация конкретная — тут нет “дозвона” вообще. Это не SIP/звонок-устройство, а чисто IoT через облако Xiaomi.

---

📦 Твоя модель (типичная Xiaomi)

Управляется через Mi Home / Xiaomi Home

Работает через облако Xiaomi

Можно кормить удалённо (кнопка “Feed”)

Есть расписание и аварийный оффлайн-режим

---

⚠️ Главная проблема

Если сервисы/регион режутся:

приложение может не подключаться к облаку

команды (Feed) не проходят

иногда привязка к региону (China/EU) ломает доступ

---

✅ Рабочие схемы (реально)

1. VPN (базовый вариант)

Что делать:

включаешь WireGuard / OpenVPN / WARP

заходишь в Mi Home

жмёшь “Feed”

✔ Работает почти всегда
✖ Зависит от блокировок

---

2. Правильный регион (критично)

В Mi Home:

попробуй:

China Mainland

Singapore

Germany

👉 Xiaomi часто ломается из-за региона, не из-за VPN

---

3. Локальный fallback (важно понимать)

Даже если всё умерло:

кормушка сама кормит по расписанию

есть резерв питания и память

👉 То есть кот не умрёт, но ты не “докормишь вручную”

---

4. Хардкор (если нужно 100% управление)

То, что делают продвинутые:

прошивка / разбор API / Home Assistant

или полный кастом (ESPHome)

Из практики:

> Xiaomi часто завязан на облако и плохо работает оффлайн (жалобы на таймзоны и баги)

---

5. Реально надёжный костыль

Если важно “докормить из Бали”:

ставишь умную розетку

перезапуск кормушки → иногда триггерит подачу

или второй “тупой” автодиспенсер

---

📊 Итог (без воды)

Xiaomi ≠ устройство для звонков

Только: приложение → облако → кормушка

Рабочая схема из Бали:

VPN → Mi Home → Feed

Без интернета: только расписание

---

Если хочешь — дам схему, как сделать полностью независимое управление (без Xiaomi облака вообще).

Подключаем светодиодную люстру к умному дому по ИК

Сегодня в продаже представлено огромное количество светодиодных люстр — на любой вкус, цвет и кошелёк. Управление такими светильниками обычно осуществляется с помощью инфракрасного пульта. В этой статье я расскажу о своей реализации управления такой люстрой при помощи самодельного ИК-передатчика на базе «народного» микроконтроллера ESP32 , подключённого к Home Assistant .

Successfully remotely upgraded the esp8266 lighting controllers in the camper from #Tasmota to #ESPHome. Managed to brick the two #WLED controllers so they'll need a physical connection to sort out. The single esp32 based relay board also needs a physical connection - Tasmota on that won't let me 'upgrade' to esphome firmware.
After they're all done, I've got to work out what I did with the #zigbee controller that means it's not on the network. Then I've got to program the switches...

Wanted to make electric price paper display on ESP32 next to our washing machine to show current price, and upcoming two hours prices. I already have HAOS and Nordpool plugin running so this was a low hanging fruit. Or so I thought. #homeassistant #esphome #esp32 #crowpanel

smol bot, that utilising #EspHome #HomeAssistant and #NodeRed sending every four hours your microdose of radiation information.

If the level of radioactivity exceeds certain threshold values, the bot sends a warning in shorter intervals.

Since November 2025 the bot adds an audio file containing the current radiation level - it sounds a bit like through an old radio.

The number of times i've re-bought a USB TTL serial device, because the one i SWEAR I STILL HAVE has been misplaced (likely because its been years since i used it last, I just dont manually flash that often) is shameful.

That is all.

I have a few RGBCTT bulbs flashed with Tasmota and integrated into Home Assistant. I forgot to back up their configuration, and kids reset them by flipping a wall switch a few times in a row. Guessing and configuring Tasmota from scratch has been a daunting task for me. Luckily the bulbs are supported by #ESPHome (https://esphome.io/components/output/bp5758d/) and I can migrate OTA from #Tasmota to ESPHome: https://esphome.io/guides/migrate_sonoff_tasmota/

Doing that tomorrow morning.

Why One Man Is Fighting for Our Right to Control Our #GarageDoor Openers

Một người dùng đã chuyển từ Wireguard sang Tailscale do gặp vấn đề CGNAT sau khi đổi router, nhưng gặp trục trặc khi kết nối các thiết bị ESP32 qua ESPHome với Home Assistant (Wireguard không hỗ trợ trên Tailscale).

So I stuck three #ds18b20 temperature sensors in our boiler. An #esp8266 and #esphome made them usable in #HomeAssisstant. What I couldn't have guessed is how much heat is transferred via the wire. When just stuck in a drilled hole through the insulation the temperature was 50⁰C. I then dug out the insulation and taped the sensor and some wire directly on the steel and foamed the cavity shut, the actual temperature is 73⁰C!

RE: https://mas.to/@okurth/115662995700749262

I bought two #ratgdo units when they first came out, and use them with #esphome . Much better experience than the MyQ stuff ever was.

Highly recommended.

Hacked the firmware on a #geekmagic smallTV and got #esphome #homeassistant running on it - wrote new software that serves up quotes from #therules by #sistercoritakent and#johncage #obliquestrategies by #peterschmidt and #brianeno and rules from the notes on the studio walls of my partner to make special birthday present for her - ‘mouseTV - 192 inspirations by artists for artists’

I got a response from a more technical person from #Remeha with a good explanation on why they didn't want me to publish certain information, which I fully understand (even though the information was rather trivial to retrieve and, according to myself, would be fully covered by Auteurswet article 45m).

They didn't have an issue with my hobby project per se, which is good. I still feel they should have contacted me about this in a normal way, instead of opting for a C&D.

I've asked them if there might be a subset of information that they are okay with with being published, mostly information that is already, in some form or another, accessible online anyway.
