Kevo Plugin

You MUST have a Kevo Plus for this plugin to work!

Example config.json:

{
  "accessories": [
    {
        "accessory": "Kevo",
        "name": "Front Door",
        "username": "[email protected]",
        "password": "<your kevo password>",
        "lock_id": "<your lock id>"
    },
    {
        "accessory": "Kevo",
        "name": "Back Door",
        "username": "[email protected]",
        "password": "<your kevo password>",
        "lock_id": "<your lock id>"
    },
  ]
}

Kevo now provides the lock IDs from the web portal or app within the lock detail information. You can also find "lock_id" values by excluding lock_id from your config.json. When you start homebridge the next time, all "lock_id" values for your Kevo account will be printed in the logs.

NOTE: When commanding groups of locks, there will be a 15 second delay between each lock command firing because Kevo does not support rapid API requests. This causes Siri to usually say "Sorry x, I didn't hear back" as a result.
