This repository is based on the offical openHAB 3.0 addons repository and the sources for the awsome Sony binding for openHAB 2.5 as provided here.
It is currenty aimed at providing a personal and lightweight playground to learn how to implement openHAB 3 bindings with the specific task of migrating the Sony binding for openHAB 2.5 to openHAB 3.
Note this is not (yet) an attempt to contribute to the offical repositories.
openHAB add-ons are Java .jar
files.
The openHAB build system is based on Maven. The official IDE (Integrated development environment) is Eclipse.
You find the following repository structure:
.
+-- bom Maven buildsystem: Bill of materials
| +-- openhab-addons Lists all extensions for other repos to reference them
| +-- ... Other boms
|
+-- bundles Official openHAB extensions
| +-- org.openhab.binding.airquality
| +-- org.openhab.binding.astro
| +-- ...
|
+-- features Part of the runtime dependency resolver ("Karaf features")
|
+-- itests Integration tests. Those tests require parts of the framework to run.
| +-- org.openhab.binding.astro.tests
| +-- org.openhab.binding.avmfritz.tests
| +-- ...
|
+-- src/etc Auxilary buildsystem files: The license header for automatic checks for example
+-- tools Static code analyser instructions
|
+-- CODEOWNERS This file assigns people to directories so that they are informed if a pull-request
would modify their add-ons.
To build all add-ons from the command-line, type in:
mvn clean install
To improve build times you can add the following options to the command:
Option | Description |
---|---|
-DskipChecks |
Skip the static analysis (Checkstyle, FindBugs) |
-DskipTests |
Skip the execution of tests |
-Dmaven.test.skip=true |
Skip the compilation and execution of tests |
-Dfeatures.verify.skip=true |
Skip the Karaf feature verification |
-Dspotless.check.skip=true |
Skip the Spotless code style checks |
-o |
Work offline so Maven does not download any updates |
-T 1C |
Build in parallel, using 1 thread per core |
For example you can skip checks and tests during development with:
mvn clean install -DskipChecks -DskipTests
Adding these options improves the build time but could hide problems in your code. Parallel builds are also less easy to debug and the increased load may cause timing sensitive tests to fail.
To check if your code is following the code style run: mvn spotless:check
To reformat your code so it conforms to the code style you can run: mvn spotless:apply
When your add-on also has an integration test in the itests
directory, you may need to update the runbundles in the itest.bndrun
file when the Maven dependencies change.
Maven can resolve the integration test dependencies automatically by executing: mvn clean install -DwithResolver -DskipChecks
The build generates a .jar
file per bundle in the respective bundle /target
directory.
We have assembled some step-by-step guides for different IDEs on our developer documentation website:

Happy coding!
