Could you clarify, is that plugin working with the new 206 firmware where local connections where removed?

bkonings avatar Dec 19 '18 08:12 bkonings

No, it works with 201 and stops working with 206

These are bad news.

An option to use harmony with homekit ist homebridge-ifttt

I hope someone with skills takes on the challenge of porting harmonyhubjs-client to use websockets vs XMPP like they did with the home assistant. https://github.com/swissmanu/harmonyhubjs-client/issues/46 IFTTT is a bit slow to respond right?

Can somebody tell me how to delete the harmony-plugin exposed things in homekit? I deleted the plugin, removed the config ... but they are still visible.

Remove ‘accesoiries’ and ‘persist’ folders, remove references in config.json and reboot device

gerarddvb avatar Dec 20 '18 18:12 gerarddvb

@gerarddvb do you know what impact removing the entire folders has on homekit setup? If i did that would i have to re-setup other plugins and accessories? Or is it pretty safe to remove with no impact to other homebridge packages?

pponce avatar Dec 20 '18 19:12 pponce

The result will be that you will only loose the accessories added as extra components to homekit. You will also loose the link from accessory to the room

Is there really no other way?

Phoenix-DH avatar Dec 20 '18 19:12 Phoenix-DH

i took the file in the accessories folder and edited out carefully the harmonyhub plugin reference. if you do a find for: {"plugin": and replace \n{"plugin": in your favorite editor you can easily see the line that needs to be edited. for me it was the last plugin reference. that seemed to work for me

Worked, thanks

Edit ~/.homebridge/accessories/cachedAccessories?

toshibochan avatar Dec 21 '18 08:12 toshibochan

Yes

Phoenix-DH avatar Dec 21 '18 09:12 Phoenix-DH

This is for removing the harmony accessories?

toshibochan avatar Dec 21 '18 09:12 toshibochan

Yes

Phoenix-DH avatar Dec 21 '18 09:12 Phoenix-DH

Sad! I think was for fix the problem!

Thank you very much! Will definitely give it a try over the holidays. Merry Christmas!

multiple hub seems to work too. Don´t forget to give the hub different names ;-)

Any prereqs ornisnit dirctly working? Working as before?

What I did not like with the ITFFF way is that there is no known state to thenother switches...

Phoenix-DH avatar Dec 23 '18 10:12 Phoenix-DH

Hi,

@perlbo Great news, thanks for feedback !

@Phoenix-DH : Yes, it is expected to work as before, including retrieving states of the current activity (that was also what bothered me with ifttt integration 😄 ). There is also an option to show a "off" switch (a switch that is on when there is no active activity, and that turn everything off when you switch it .. on ).

nicoduj avatar Dec 23 '18 12:12 nicoduj

Thanks, great! Will try the next days

Hi Nicoduj, thanks for the plugin, it works for my Harmony with 206 firmware :) Question: would it be possible to add support for control individual device? Merry christmas!

maisun avatar Dec 23 '18 18:12 maisun

@perlbo Can you share the multi hub command? Thanks

ClarenceTsang avatar Dec 24 '18 12:12 ClarenceTsang

Working great, thanks!

Phoenix-DH avatar Dec 24 '18 13:12 Phoenix-DH

@clarencetsang

Hi. Just add config for each hub and ip.

perlbo avatar Dec 24 '18 16:12 perlbo

@perlbo worked, thank you 😃

Hi Nicoduj, thanks for the plugin, it works for my Harmony with 206 firmware :) Question: would it be possible to add support for control individual device? Merry christmas!

Hi, you’re welcome ! Concerning individual device, yes, definitely possible but as single switchs with power on / off features . I had in mind to try a programmable switch but I am not sure it is possible, still have to check

I had in mind to try a programmable switch but I am not sure it is possible, still have to check Single on/off switch is good enough in my case, a programmable is even better :) In my case I have an IR controlled lamp that I'd like to map on/off to a HomeKit switch.

maisun avatar Dec 29 '18 18:12 maisun

Individual device controls would be fantastic, even if it's single switch to start. Highly desirable feature for me :)
