3rd Party Modules

Due to its modular structure, pilight can be easily extended by providing additional modules. This page lists the modules that are available together with installation information.

Please note that the modules below have been created by pilight users. They are not part of the pilight package and support for these modules has to be provided by their creators. So do not report any issues with these modules as pilight issues! Only post your questions, comments and issues in the Addons forum: https://forum.pilight.org/forumdisplay.php?fid=24

All pilight documentation has been moved to http://manual.pilight.org.
