Rust implementation of the Apple HomeKit Accessory Protocol (HAP)

HAP (HomeKit Accessory Protocol)

Rust implementation of the Apple HomeKit Accessory Protocol (HAP).

This crate supports all HomeKit services and characteristics currently implemented by Apple and provides the ability to create custom characteristics, services and accessories.

The HomeKit Accessory Protocol supports transports over IP and Bluetooth LE. Currently only the transport over IP is implemented in this crate. Accessories are exposed by the implemented HAP Accessory HTTP server and announced via built-in mDNS.

HomeKit Data Model

The HAP defines HomeKit enabled devices as virtual accessories that are composed of services that are composed of characteristics.

Characteristics hold values of various data types as well as optional metadata like max/min values or units. Services group characteristics and represent features of the accessory. Every accessory consists of at least one accessory information service and any number of additional services. For example a custom ceiling fan accessory may consist of an accessory information Service, a fan service and a lightbulb service.

Ceiling Fan Accessory
|
|-- Accessory Information Service
|   |-- Identify Characteristic
|   |-- Manufacturer Characteristic
|   |-- Model Characteristic
|   |-- Name Characteristic
|   |-- Serial Characteristic
|
|-- Fan Service
|   |-- On Characteristic
|   |-- Rotation Direction Characteristic
|   |-- Rotation Speed Characteristic
|
|-- Lightbulb Service
|   |-- On Characteristic
|   |-- Brightness Characteristic
|   |-- Hue Characteristic
|   |-- Saturation Characteristic

This crate provides a pre-built accessory for every service predefined by Apple in the HomeKit Accessory Simulator as well as others like Television. Custom characteristics and services can be created, assembled and used alongside the predefined ones.

For a full list of the predefined characteristics, services and accessories, see the docs or Apple's official specification.

Usage Examples

Creating a simple lightbulb accessory and starting the IP server:

use hap::{
    accessory::{lightbulb::LightbulbAccessory, AccessoryCategory, AccessoryInformation},
    server::{IpServer, Server},
    storage::FileStorage,
    tokio,
    Config,
    MacAddress,
    Pin,
};

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() {
    let lightbulb = LightbulbAccessory::new(1, AccessoryInformation {
        name: "Acme Lightbulb".into(),
        ..Default::default()
    })
    .unwrap();

    let config = Config {
        pin: Pin::new([1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 3, 3, 3]).unwrap(),
        name: "Acme Lightbulb".into(),
        device_id: MacAddress::new([10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60]),
        category: AccessoryCategory::Lightbulb,
        ..Default::default()
    };
    let storage = FileStorage::current_dir().await.unwrap();

    let mut server = IpServer::new(config, storage).unwrap();
    server.add_accessory(lightbulb).await.unwrap();

    let handle = server.run_handle();

    std::env::set_var("RUST_LOG", "hap=debug");
    env_logger::init();

    handle.await;
}

Setting sync callbacks to react to remote value reads and updates:

use hap::characteristic::CharacteristicCallbacks;

lightbulb.lightbulb.on.on_read(Some(|| {
    println!("on characteristic read");
    None
}));

lightbulb.lightbulb.on.on_update(Some(|current_val: &bool, new_val: &bool| {
    println!("on characteristic updated from {} to {}", current_val, new_val);
}));

Setting async callbacks to react to remote value reads and updates:

use hap::characteristic::AsyncCharacteristicCallbacks;

lightbulb.lightbulb.on.on_read_async(Some(|| {
    async {
        println!("on characteristic read (async)");
        None
    }
    .boxed()
}));

lightbulb.lightbulb.on.on_update_async(Some(|current_val: bool, new_val: bool| {
    async move {
        println!("on characteristic updated from {} to {} (async)", current_val, new_val);
    }
    .boxed()
}));

Setting a characteristic value directly:

use hap::{
    characteristic::HapCharacteristic,
    serde_json::Value,
};

lightbulb.lightbulb.on.set_value(Value::Bool(true)).await.unwrap();
