Xiaomi Vacuum as "template fan" for Home Assistant/HomeKit. The fan slider (0-100) in HomeKit will be translated to the the corresponding vacuum presets or speeds (off, Silent, Standard, Medium, Turbo).

Could you send the code for the pause that I try?

@ophilips I find a mistake in my code in the battery section. The battery sensor is working now (-: The charging is nevertheless still always to "No".

The charging status is not supported at the moment in home assistant. It just gets added when a battery value is linked to your device. So i couldn‘t use that feature.

I will check the pause function again because there were so many changes in the xiaomi integration like the speed settings.

Ok, thanks and keep in touch!

Hi again,

the followings speed settings are not working for me. I only manage to make the vacuum use Gentle or standard mode with these settings. Did anybody managed?

    speeds:
      - 'off'
      - 'Silent'
      - 'Standard'
      - 'Medium'
      - 'Turbo'

- 'Gentle'

    speeds:
      - 'off'
      - 'Silent'
      - 'Standard'
      - 'Medium'
      - 'Turbo'
     - 'Gentle'

Hello ophilips

my code is pretty basic but does the trick of showing the vacuum in the Homekit and having the on/off button:
#Xiaomi Mi Robot Vacuum
vacuum:

• platform: xiaomi_miio
  host: ##########
  token: ###########
  name: To
  However would it be possible to have this information showing in the Home App in the iPhone? (the print is from the EVE app but the principle is the same)
  

Hey @WLines84, by using your code (which is just the home assistant standard config) you only have access to the on/off switch in Apple Home. It is a new feature since version 0.110 https://www.home-assistant.io/blog/2020/05/20/release-110/#homekit
If you want to have more features like vacuum speed, zones etc. it is still necessary to add some more code to your config.

Hi @ophilips

Long time ago (-:
I wonder if you have updated the code since the fan.speed service seems not to be working anymore. It would be nice to share a new code if you can.
Thanks

Doesnt work anymore.

Deprecated services: fan.set_speed

Does anyone have a working config for Homekit with latest HA versions?
