This manual will show you how to acheive "remote" wmbus metering.

ESP stick

You will need to grab NodeMCU V2 development board and CC1101 radio transceiver.
Feel free to use something like this:
https://forum.arturhome.pl/t/komponent-do-esphome-umozliwiajacy-odczyt-miernikow-wm-bus-i-transmisje-wyniku-do-ha/7548

ESPHome configuration

Use config esp_wmbus.yaml.
In this configuration, ESP stick will stream all received telegrams to wmbusmeters running as your Home Assistant addon.

HA Addon Configuration

Current wmbusmeters addon configuration is somehow broken.
I created a pull request fixing this issue, but it's a breaking change for current users.
wmbusmeters/wmbusmeters#838
For now, you can use my forked repo.

  1. Go to Home Assistant → SettingsAdd-ons
  2. Click ADD-ON STORE
  3. Upper-right corner click 3 dots → Repositories
  4. Add Repository https://github.com/KrzysztofHajdamowicz/wmbusmeters
  5. Install wmbusmeters addon
  6. Configure Your instance:
    enable_mqtt_discovery set to true
    conf:
loglevel: normal
device: rtlwmbus:CMD(nc -lk 9022)
donotprobe: /dev/ttyAMA0
logtelegrams: false
format: json
logfile: /dev/stdout
shell: /wmbusmeters/mosquitto_pub.sh "wmbusmeters/$METER_NAME" "$METER_JSON"

meters

  - name: ElectricityMeter
    driver: amiplus
    id: "12345678" #Note "123" casts number as string

  1. in Network section, add port 9022 as TCP listener

Hi,

thanks for putting this together.
I'm having some issues with compiling this.
I use the ESPHome addon in homeassistant and when I try to compile this, I'm getting the following error.

Can you please help me?

What this means ..."Can't get value" ?
it seems like only some telegrams are working

(The Multical21 and other meters use compressed telegrams, which means that you might have to wait up to 8 telegrams (8*16 seconds) until you receive a full length telegram which gives all the information needed to decode the compressed telegrams.)
