Curtain BLE designation of dual vs single curtain setup

Open apollo1220 opened this issue 3 years ago • 4 comments

Current Situation

Currently there doesn't seem to be a way to know whether the curtain device is setup just as a single curtain or is paired with another curtain device to make a dual curtain.

Proposed Change

Add information to the GET API which designates which way the curtain device is configured.

Additional Context

This is for Home Assistant's integration with SwitchBot.

We likely need a way in the advertisement data to know which commands to send

If its a dual setup we likely need to send the original commands that https://github.com/Danielhiversen/pySwitchbot/pull/122/files changed.

If its a single setup we need to use the commands that are in there right now

If you use with OpenAPI then you can see if it is paired with another curtain. That's what I do in the homebridge plugin.

Unfortunately Home Assistant only talks to these over Bluetooth so it has no credentials to access the cloud apis

Our solution was to send both commands which I assume is successful since the issues have not been reopened https://github.com/Danielhiversen/pySwitchbot/pull/127
