Can you test and verify compatibility with Home Assistant's ZHA integration via zigpy-zboss (radio library for zigpy used by zha)?

@andryblack @eexarevsky Can I suggest you test/verify ZHA (and zigpy) compatibility with zigpy-zboss by kardia-as/DamCast?

• https://github.com/kardia-as/zigpy-zboss

  • https://github.com/zigpy/zigpy

    • https://github.com/zigpy/zigpy-cli

Main use case is to utilize ZBOSS-based NCP as a Zigbee Coordinator in Home Assistant's own "ZHA" Zigbee Gateway integration:

• https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/zha

  • https://github.com/home-assistant/core/tree/dev/homeassistant/components/zha

For reference, that built-in "Zigbee Home Automation" (ZHA) integration is used by around 25% of all Home Assistant users:

(Note that only a third of all Home Assistant users opt-in to analytics tracking -> https://analytics.home-assistant.io/ )

More information and discussion on zigpy-zboss and ZBOSS specific use case here in Home Assistant's community forum:

FYI; zigpy-zboss is a Zigbee NCP radio abstraction library for zigpy used by "Zigbee Home Automation" integration in Home Assistant, but could also be used by other projects via the new zha library and the upcoming "Web Socket Server" one of their devs is working on:

• https://github.com/zigpy/zha

Another project that uses zigpy (and zigpy-cli) directly without the zha library is the Zigbee for Domoticz Plugin project:

• https://github.com/zigbeefordomoticz/Domoticz-Zigbee

PS: Off-topic but as you are using ESP32 hardware might also be interested in checking out this other radio library for zigpy:
