Homematic IP HCU plugin that bridges Gardena smart system devices (mowers, valves, power sockets, sensors) into the HMIP app via the official Husqvarna v2 API.

- Download the latest
hmip-gardena-plugin-<version>.tar.gzfrom Releases. - In HCUweb open Developer mode → Plugins → Install from file and upload it.
- Open the plugin tile → Configuration and fill in your Husqvarna API API key and API secret (Application Key/Secret from the Husqvarna Developer Portal).
- Save. After OAuth your Gardena devices appear in the HMIP inbox.
The plugin serves a local status dashboard (dark-glass UI, DE/EN) at
http://<HCU-address>:8094 — live device state, diagnostics, logs with a
360° export and an update check. You can switch it off or change the port in
the plugin Configuration; the container always keeps port 8094 reachable
for its health check.
Note: the brightness value of Gardena sensors is shown up to 20,000 lx. That is the maximum of the Connect API
Illuminationfeature (spec §6.7.15), not a plugin limitation — the HMIP app cannot display higher values.
From v1.3.0 the plugin can update itself over the air from GitHub releases.
In the dashboard Updates tab you can check for updates, switch between the
stable and experimental channel and choose manual or automatic
mode. The stable core image always stays installed as a fallback, so a bad
update automatically rolls back. The initial install (and a core update, when
required) is still a manual .tar.gz upload in HCUweb.
