Lack of documentation - Cannot get this to work
I have installed the nodes, all looks good for install and API. But I cannot find any streaming mode flag, the node complains if the "mandatory" ID is missing, yet the README.md says you can leave it blank.
The only responses I can get from the node are: 400 - if i set an imaginary ID "Error: undefined away state" - if I set the ID blank
No idea how to use these nodes
LOL. OK, so RTFM, it was not completely obvious and I would advise a little more work on clearer instructions.
You need to use the "request" node. The "status" node is only to set and retrieve home/away mode.
As I was hoping to get the "status" of the smoke detector, it confused me. Better doco would have saved me a fair amount of time.
Looking at using this with my https://flows.nodered.org/node/node-red-contrib-alarm to trigger my house siren with the smoke alarm automatically if we are away from the home.
