openHAB 3: Semantic Model Tags (Location, Equipment, Property, Point)

2021-02-22 Eiko Wagenknecht

When creating a semantic model in openHAB, I find it very practical to have a tree-like overview of the available tags. Here it is, based on the status as of February 22, 2021.

You can find the original with the most up-to-date information in the Github repository of openHAB core. If you notice that something is missing from the list, please let me know, and I’ll add it.

For information on which values you need to use for them to be displayed as “badges,” check the openHAB documentation.
