I just read about the recent new devices from Switchbot - New releases – SwitchBot Global (switch-bot.com). Seems like they have multiple sensors in each device to make them more useful.
Will be nice to have their support in Hubitat!
I believe there are community-developed drivers for switchbot. Their API is through the cloud though.
I wrote SwitchBot drivers for Hubitat for many of their previous devices: SwitchBot gets an open API! - #17 by tomw
I looked at these, and their cloud API relies on polling for motion and contact statuses, which I figured would be too slow for most people. So, I may still add them for completeness but it hasn't been a priority for me.
They have ramped up their examples that show BLE (local) access, which I have played with before and had mixed results. But the main downside is that approach is that you need another Bluetooth capable computer between them and Hubitat like a Raspberry Pi.
Would love to be able to control my two switch-bots locally through Hubitat! Even with an rPI (I happen to have one just sitting around right now 
).
I use the switch-bots to press the button on automatic treat feeders in my goat pen and chicken coop run. Not having to rely on the cloud would be amazing.
You can do this now with homebridge and Homebridge Switchbot Ble plugin. If youre not in the apple ecosystem you can use API calls from RM -> homebridge to triggger the bots.
Thanks for the suggestion but I'll pass on anything Apple related.
Well there is also an open source python host, add a little nodered and it should be able to work with hubitat. It’s a bit more work but might fit your needs.
GitHub - OpenWonderLabs/python-host: The python code running on Raspberry Pi or other Linux based boards to control SwitchBot.
Is there a way to get the Switch Bot Temp/Humidity sensor to work with Hubitat?
Hi, I'm using your driver for Locker and it works wonderful. Thanks for ur work 
I would like to ask if there is any way to use the keypad touch as hubitat keypad....in the drivers it doesn't show up.
Thanks in advance!
I added Home Assistant to HE in order to use BLE Beacons.
It happens to be HA has very nice 100% local integration for
Switchbot devices.So, I immediately switched from cloud based
integration (I was using very nice @tomw drivers) to 100%
local control. Currently I am using 5 curtain bots and 2 switch
pushers.
@vitaliy_kh , so using a conbee zigbee stick on HA?
In that case it should be possible to use a local zigbee driver for HE?
I wonder if someone code adept like @tomw would be able to build somethimg similar to the HA implementation then.
SwitchBot Curtains and Pushers devices are BLE, not Zigbee/ZWave.
HE does not have BLE. Direct integration with HE could be done
only by using SwitchBot WiFi-BLE Bridge. But unfortunately SwitchBot
API is only cloud-based, not local. Therefore @tomw HE Driver works
very well but unfortunately it is cloud-based.
My goal is - everything must be only local, no clouds.
From the other side Home Assistant integration with SwitchBot Curtains
is 100% local but it is BLE.
I am currently investigating whether a Shelly Plus device (easy to get and cheap) could be used as a BLE gateway for HE. That would provide a local solution. Else, some kind of BLE capable embedded computer, like and ESP32 or similar, would be needed as a gateway/proxy.
How this could be better or simpler vs. using HA or RPi?
BTW, I startled with HA on my spare RPi 3 but it was to..o slow.
(Automations on RPI HA was not slow but UI was annoyingly slow.)
Since right now I have multiple things running on HA (SwitchBot
Curtains and Pushers, Ecobee Thermostat, Home Arrival BLE
Beacons) I upgraded RPi3 to ameriDroid and as a result
everything is flying and what is more important, everything is
100% local. No more clouds.
And BTW, Thank You very much for the HADB!
HADB is very important component for the HA-HE integration.
It wouldn't be.
This would be very cool! Keep us posted!!
