Inkbird to Homeassistant

The purpose of this project is to get popular multi-probe inkbird thermometers into homeassistant for automations, temperature logging, changing lights based on BBQ status, and whatever else you can think of.

Requirements

This is designed to run on a raspberry pi, but it should work fine on any linux system with a BLE adapter.

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jshridha/inkbird/master/docker-compose.yaml

INKBIRD_MQTT_USERNAME	N	MQTT username
