Bom primeiramente parabens pelo projeto!!!
gostaria que se possivel add possibilidade de adicionar um sensor para status de aberto e fechado . um sensor magnetico add a uma gpio.obrigado desde ja .

digo sobre o sensor pois para o fechamento automatico somente criando automaçôes .com a possibilidade de adicionar um sensor o status mudaria automatico quando sensor ABERTO/FECHADO.sem uso de automaçâo.

OK so I've got it all working.
Im using not red to unlock the door. I was using a web ui for the lock but it was slow, so I've switched to MQTT commands and it is much quick, ie instantaneous!

Suggestion...
in the interface we can already send MQTT commands, but could we also set a custom topic and payload which is sent in addition. Something which is sent when the door unlock is issued.
This would be awesome as we then dont need a MIM line nodered to unlock the door.

There already is MQTT Custom States
They are tied to the internal lock states and only limited to numbers so it’s not complete custom payloads.
It was originally implemented in order to publish data directly to a Lock that has an MQTT API like Nuki’s.
The wiki needs a little work, let me know if you have any questions.

@rednblkx there is another really nice project: https://github.com/esprfid/esp-rfid and I was wondering if a best-of-both would make sense:

• add user management for standard RFID to this project so that not only HomeKey works, but also the cheap tags. My kids don't have iPhones yet ;)
• maybe make use of some of their web-ui and infrastructure for this
• fully emulate a lock, and not only the reading. I want to integrate this into my garage door, and just need a 1s activation of the relais, and then I would be good again.

Ultimately, one could even add a fingerprint reader, for that there is also a project: https://github.com/frickelzeugs/FingerprintDoorbell

Would be happy to hear your thoughts :)

I appreciate all of you ideas, but that seems like a huge change to the general project.

I do User management and the opening closing of the lock in nodered.

That way, so have Homekeys, Traditional Tags via NodeRED, and the correct animation and status of the locks also via NodeRED.
