ZigBeeForDomoticz is a plugin for Domoticz home automation software to connect Zigbee devices through Zigbee coordinator (ZigBee hubs/gateways/bridges/controllers/adapters/dongles/sticks/keys). This plugin is an evolution of the mature Zigate plugin, which will continue to manage and handle ZiGates in native mode, while the others will be handle through unified communication libraries from the zigpy project.

, This is where you should find the most stable environment.dev
is a parallel branch tostable6
which is the main branch for the developpement, this is where you can find the latest features , but also potentials bugs.
Branches made out of develop
are used for paralell development and will be merged back to dev
when ready.
Since the release of 6th version in april 2022, we opened the plugin to other coordinators than ZiGate's by adding the zigpy protocol.
The plugin was originally developed for the ZiGate Coordinators. They are still working in native mode.
Any Texas Instruments CC2531, CC13x2, CC26x2 adapters based on the ZigBee Network Processors should be supported, more information could be found on zigpy-znp which provided the layer to interface with the coordinator.
You can also find a list of Texas Instruments supported adapters which also works with zigpy-znp and as such should also work with this plugin.
As for TI coordinator, we rely on zigpy-bellows for the Silicon Labs compatibility . A list of compatible hardware is available here.
A list of certified objetcs is maintained on https://zigbee.blakadder.com. If an object in non-listed, that does not mean that it is not working with the plugin : it can work directly or need an integration to get it full working.

Please do consider that the current plugin is limited to create a maximum of 255 "Widgets" (Domoticz devices). This will still give you the possibility to integrate a large number of Zigbee devices , but not an unlimited number.
-
Note that as with all ZigBee coordinators you will need to add several "ZigBee Router" devices in order to increase the size of your ZigBee network mesh to reach that maximum number of devices, as the Zigbee Coordinator will only support a smaller number of direct connected devices. See documentation for best practices.
