Shelly beyond generation 1 and 2

Gen. 1 devices can be easily integrated via Shelly MQTT plugin. Gen. 2 Devices can be integrated with the help of Shelly Teacher. I have successfully done that in the past.

But is there any possibility to integrate Gen. 3 or Gen. 4 devices without using node red?

I don't have the time to get to grips with it, and I'm not very knowledgeable in this field. Furthermore, my Domoticz needs to remain at least somewhat maintainable by other family members.

You could have a look at the teacher script and maybe improve it?

The Gen4 (maybe 3 as well?) is Zigbee compatible, so using it with zigbee2mqtt in combination with Domoticz (MQTT Auto Discovery), you should have no issues

And if you have time, write a native implementation.
As all devices support MQTT, I assume they all use the same way to update their status and get the controlled?

At least, I hope there is not a Gen1, Gen2, Gen3 and Gen4 API....

Hi @imautohuttraeger,

Beside the Gen 1 API, only a Gen 2+ API exist.

See: https://shelly-api-docs.shelly.cloud/gen2/

So all solutions for Gen 2 should also work for Gen 3 and Gen 4.

Regards

I see. So will Gen 3 and 4 also work with Shelly teacher?

No idea, I never used Shelly teacher. I always use Node Red.
But try it, I would say.
