Node.js package for the Xiaomi Mi Flora Plant Sensor built on top of noble (maintained by abandonware).
Have a look in the Wiki for more information on the sensor.
Please see the Prerequisites section for noble.
npm install miflora
The library uses async/await code syntax instead of Promises chaining in order to execute asynchronous code sequentially. Since all internal code is based on Promises you still can use the method().then().catch()
-pattern regardless.
All examples use async/await syntax.
const devices = await miflora.discover();
console.log('devices discovered: ', devices.length);
In this example we listen for 10000 (default value) milliseconds (10 seconds) and print out the number of detected devices.
const opts = {
duration: 60000,
ignoreUnknown: true,
addresses: ['c4:7c:8d:65:d6:1d', 'c4:7c:8d:65:d5:26', 'c4:7c:8d:65:e6:20']
};
const devices = await miflora.discover(opts);
console.log('devices discovered: ', devices.length);
This time we listen for 60000 milliseconds (60 seconds) or until all devices from given opts.addresses
have been discovered and print out the number of detected devices. If opt.ignoreUnknown
is true, devices which are not in opt.addresses
will be ignored in result.
All query methods implicitly initiate a connection if none exists. You can call device.connect()
explicitly if you like nevertheless.
The library however doesn't perform a disconnect implicitly. You can call device.disconnect()
when you have finished you queries or let you disconnect automatically from the device after 10 seconds.
const data = await device.queryFirmwareInfo();
console.log(data);
Example output:
{ address: 'c4:7c:8d:65:e6:20',
type: 'MiFloraMonitor',
firmwareInfo: { battery: 100, firmware: '3.1.9' } }
const data = await device.querySensorValues();
console.log(data);
Example output:
{ address: 'c4:7c:8d:65:e6:20',
type: 'MiFloraMonitor',
sensorValues: { temperature: 21.1, lux: 104, moisture: 36, fertility: 1049 } }
const data = await device.querySerial();
console.log(data);
const data = await device.query();
console.log(data);
The library uses Debug with the logger names miflora
and miflora:device
.
You can start your script with prefixing DEBUG=miflora* to see all debug output.
DEBUG=miflora* node yourapp.js
