0. Install Bluetooth Packages

This step is required if you wish to control your devices via bluetooth.

1. Install

Homebridge UI & HOOBS

Simply go to the 'Plugins' page, search homebridge-govee and click 'Install'.

Manually

This will only work if you are using a platform which installs plugins globally.

sudo npm i homebridge-govee -g

2. Configure

If you use the Homebridge UI or HOOBS then a configuration screen will appear after installing the plugin where you can enter your Govee API key.

See the Configuration page for JSON configuration templates and other optional settings if editing the configuration manually.

3. Restart

And voila your supported Govee devices should be added to your Homebridge/HOOBS instance.
