If you want to use the Nordic Mesh SDK out of the box, I would recommend my solution above. But if you really want to use the Raspberry Pi as part of your Mesh network, one of these three links might be useful: link 1, link 2, link 3. You could try sending the user ayman a message for some tips maybe?

Instead of SPI or I2C, Raspberry supports BLE with new Mesh SDK supporting GATT Proxy Can I make Raspberry Pi as part of Mesh ??

1) If you take a look at the light switch client example in the latest mesh sdk, you can see that there is a boolean variable called m_relay_enable, which can either be true or false. If it is set to true, then the relay functionality is already enabled. m_relay_enable is set to true in the network_init() function. This means that the relay functionality is already enabled at default.

2) You could use a nrf52 dk to receive the mesh packets & then send these packets to the Raspberry Pi via SPI or I2c for example. From there, you can use the Raspberry Pi to communicate to the cloud.
