# Zigbee2MQTT & Shelly Weather Station Integration This guide describes how to deploy Zigbee2MQTT in the `monitoring` namespace and pair your **Shelly Weather Station (Ecowitt WS90)** using the **SLZB-MR1U Zigbee multiradio** (`192.168.10.10`). > [!NOTE] > These resources have already been successfully applied and verified running in the cluster. --- ## 1. Deploy Zigbee2MQTT The Kubernetes secret and workload manifests are located in `k8s/monitoring/`: ```bash # 1. Apply the encrypted secrets (MQTT credentials & Traefik basic auth credentials) # Note: Basic auth credentials are split into 'zigbee2mqtt-auth-secret' to satisfy # Traefik's constraint requiring exactly one key in the basic auth secret. kubectl apply -f k8s/monitoring/zigbee2mqtt.secret.yaml # 2. Apply the main deployment, PVC, ConfigMap, Service, Middleware, and Ingress kubectl apply -f k8s/monitoring/zigbee2mqtt.yaml ``` --- ## 2. Verify the Deployment 1. Check that the Persistent Volume is provisioned and the pod starts: ```bash kubectl get pods -n monitoring -l app=zigbee2mqtt ``` 2. Inspect the logs to ensure Zigbee2MQTT connects successfully to the SLZB-MR1U coordinator (`192.168.10.10:7638` — port `7638` is the TI CC2652P7 coordinator chip on the MR1U) and the Mosquitto MQTT broker (`mosquitto.datalab.svc.cluster.local`): ```bash kubectl logs -n monitoring deploy/zigbee2mqtt ``` **Expected healthy output:** ``` info: z2m: Starting Zigbee2MQTT version 1.40.1 (commit #403d3c0) info: z2m: Starting zigbee-herdsman (0.57.3) info: zh:zstack:znp: Opening TCP socket with 192.168.10.10:7638 info: zh:zstack:znp: Socket connected info: z2m: zigbee-herdsman started (resumed) info: z2m: Connecting to MQTT server at mqtt://mosquitto.datalab.svc.cluster.local:1883 info: z2m: Connected to MQTT server info: z2m: Started frontend on port 0.0.0.0:8080 info: z2m: Zigbee2MQTT started! ``` --- ## 3. Access the Dashboard The dashboard is exposed on your custom domain with TLS and basic authentication: * **URL:** [https://zigbee2mqtt.moritzgraf.de](https://zigbee2mqtt.moritzgraf.de) * **Username:** `admin` * **Password:** `moritz-z2m-2026` *Note: You can change the basic auth password by running the `k8s/htpasswd.py` script on your machine to generate a new bcrypt hash, then updating the `users` value in `k8s/monitoring/zigbee2mqtt.secret.yaml`.* --- ## 4. Pair the Weather Station (WS90) 1. Open the Zigbee2MQTT dashboard and click **Permit join (All)** at the top right. 2. Go to your physical Ecowitt WS90 weather station and **double-press the physical CAL button** on the bottom of the sensor array. 3. The LED on the weather station should flash, indicating it is in pairing mode (active for 3 minutes). 4. Within a few seconds, the weather station will appear in the Zigbee2MQTT dashboard. You can rename it there (e.g. to `weather_station`). --- ## 5. Verify Metrics flow * **Home Assistant:** The weather station will be automatically discovered via the MQTT integration. You can verify it under **Settings > Devices & Services > MQTT**. * **Prometheus:** Home Assistant will automatically expose the new weather station entities. You can query them in Prometheus or Grafana (e.g. `homeassistant_sensor_temperature_celsius` or similar entity-based metrics).
