GPIO Doorbell Verifiedhomebridge-gpio-doorbell | Not working | Button presses not registered; new OS GPIO numbering breaks rpi-gpioSaved copyOk, this is a problem with rpi-gpio. With the new Raspberry Pi OS, GPIOs are no longer numbered starting from zero. What you have to do is examine all of the gpiopinxxx nodes for their base and ngpio. As a workaround, you can edit rpi-gio.js and edit the two pin number tables to come up with the correct value. For example, pin 12 should have a GPIO number of 530 and pin 16 a GPIO number of 535. But rpi-gpio needs to switch to laying on top of libgpiod. Excerpt saved from GitHub on 2026-10-22. | Local | Issue #4 · 2024-04 |

Once a Homebridge plugin publishes it, this device reaches Apple Home as a HomeKit accessory behind your Homebridge bridge, so ReReHome shows and controls it like any other.
