A certified Matter controller server exposing a WebSocket API built on the official Matter (CHIP) SDK, originally created to power Home Assistant's Matter integration. It has been superseded by the matterjs-server rewrite, with version 8.1.2 being the final release of this Python implementation.

Use cases

  • run a matter controller server for my smart home
  • control matter devices from python
  • self-host a matter controller in docker
  • add matter support to my own home automation project
  • commission and control matter devices over websockets
  • replace a proprietary matter hub with open source

When to choose

  • you need a certified Matter controller with a WebSocket API for a Python-based or custom home automation setup
  • you are maintaining a legacy Home Assistant Matter setup on this version
  • you want a standalone Matter controller in a Docker container

When to avoid

  • you are starting a new project - use the successor matterjs-server instead
  • you need long-term support or new Matter features, since this repo no longer receives updates
  • you want an end-user app rather than a server component
