Do I need to do anything differently for the Python script to be able to access the GPIO pins so it can read the temperature/humidity and then store the results in a Database that is running on my NAS.
Possibly.
1. The GPIO pins on an RPI[5] board are implemented via the new RP1 chip, and are supported differently by system software. Many of the long-standing Python modules/libraries no longer work or need intervention to make them work. That may affect Homebridge, of which I have no knowledge. Research required.
2. To use the recommended RasPiOS on an RPi[5] board requires the use of RasPiOS Bookworm. That in turn changes the way that Python modules/libraries are installed and accessed. Research required.
If Homebridge is a 'turnkey' solution that has already been adapted, released and supported for an RPi[5] board then these issues may have been dealt with for you and may be of no direct concern/impact.
