on GitHub

Important Notes

• This release includes breaking changes (denoted below with a ⚠️), so take note especially if:
  • You use the plugin in LAN-only mode,
  • You have Sonoff devices exposed as Outlet accessories, or
  • You use Accessory Simulations

Added

• LAN Mode (without eWeLink credentials)
  • The plugin now supports removing eWeLink credentials from the config when in LAN mode. It is important to read about this feature before enabling it - read more
• Homebridge UI
  • Device-specific settings will show and hide depending on the new 'Device Model' (deviceModel) option
  • This showing/hiding of options will hopefully be available in the HOOBS UI soon
• Accessory Logging
  • overrideLogging setting per device type (to replace the removed overrideDisabledLogging), which can be set to (and will override the global device logging and debug logging settings):
    • "default" to follow the global device update and debug logging setting for this accessory (default if setting not set)
    • "standard" to enable device update logging but disable debug logging for this accessory
    • "debug" to enable device update and debug logging for this accessory
    • "disable" to disable device update and debug logging for this accessory
• Startup Logging
  • An accessory warning if a manually configured IP is different from the discovered IP
  • An accessory warning if a shared device is used over the cloud
  • An accessory warning if a cloud-device is reported offline
• No Response Status
  • Added a global setting offlineAsNoResponse to mark cloud-offline accessories as 'No Response' in HomeKit
• Power Readings
  • Power readings (via Eve app) now visible for accessories when exposed as Switch
• DUALR3 Devices
  • Support for LAN mode control for DUALR3 in motor mode
  • Power readings (via Eve app) available when in motor mode
  • Option to expose as a WindowCovering, Window or Door accessory type when in motor mode
• iFan Devices
  • Support for LAN mode and ability to specify a manual IP
• TH10/16 Devices
  • Support for LAN mode for all Accessory Simulations and ability to specify a manual IP
• RF Bridge Devices
  • Ability to change sensor type and other configurable options without the need to re-add the accessory
  • Configuration option resetOnStartup to reset the subdevices, useful when adding/removing subdevices to the bridge
  • Added option to specify a manual IP for an RF Bridge
  • Added option to expose an RF sensor device as a Doorbell accessory type
  • Added option to expose an RF sensor device as a StatelessProgrammableSwitch accessory type
• Light Devices
  • Remove Adaptive Lighting feature from a device by setting the adaptiveLightingShift to -1
• Zigbee Button Devices
  • Comparison of trigger time against notification time to reduce duplicate accessory updates
  • Will no longer request current state when coming back online to reduce duplicate accessory updates
• Zigbee Switch Devices
  • Option to expose as an Outlet
• Humidity Sensor Devices
  • Config option to offset the recorded humidity (%RH) for devices that report this
• Accessory Simulations
  • Expose a generic single/multi-channel device as a Doorbell accessory
  • Expose a generic single/multi-channel device as a StatelessProgrammableSwitch accessory
  • Added the option of using a DW2 or Zigbee contact sensor to determine Locked and Unlocked state for lock simulation
  • Power readings (via Eve app) visible for simulations when using a DUALR3 device
• New Devices
  • Support for Zigbee leak sensors
  • Support for device with eWeLink UIID 67 RollingDoor

Changed

• LAN Mode
  • ⚠️ If you have the plugin in lan-only mode then the plugin will remove any accessories that do not support LAN mode
• Configuration
  • ⚠️ The 'Outlet Devices' (outletDevices[]) section has been removed from the configuration - you will need to reconfigured these devices within the 'Single Devices' (singleDevices[]) section
• Accessory Simulations
  • ⚠️ The 'Accessory Simulations' (groups[]) section will be removed in a future plugin version - you should now setup your simulations from within the appropriate device type section using the 'Show As' setting
    • Simulations for TH10/16, DW2 and doorbell, p_button & sensor will need to be recreated immediately
    • Garage door, window blind, door, window, valve, tap, lock and switch-valve simulations will continue to work for now but will need to be recreated at some point in the future
  • ⚠️ Eachen GD-DC5 devices no longer need to be setup as a simulation if this deviceModel is chosen in the configuration
• Outlet Devices
  • ⚠️ Will now be exposed by default as Switch, use the 'Show As' setting to change back to Outlet if needed
• Homebridge UI
  • More interactive - device configuration will expand once device ID and model entered
  • Device configuration options will now hide/show based on the deviceModel field
• Startup Logging
  • Accessory configuration options will be logged regardless of logging level
• iFan Devices
  • Previous fan speed will be used again after turning off and on
• Polling
  • Polling for power/temperature/humidity readings increased to two minutes
  • Polling for power/temperature/humidity readings will be skipped if device is marked as offline
• Configuration
  • sensorTimeDifference minimum reduced to 5 seconds and default reduced to 60 seconds
• Dependencies
  • Recommended node version bump to v14.17.3
  • Bump ws dependency to v7.5.2

Fixed

• An issue preventing controlling a garage door simulation when using a sensor
• An issue with the DUALR3 in motor mode hanging on 'Closing...' or 'Opening...'
• Fixed the multiple notifications when closing an Eachen device garage door
• A RangeError error which caused HOOBS bridge to restart

Removed

• overrideDisabledLogging setting for each accessory type
• outletDevices[] configuration section
• switchDevices[].showAsOutlet removed - use switchDevices[].showAs instead
• ContactSensorState and other unneeded characteristics from garage (simulation) services
