ALL USERS PLEASE READ (Reminder from v2.25.0)
- As well as some new features, this update also contains some important bug fixes which I am keen to push out.
- I have not had a chance to test this release with some devices that I don't own. If you have one of the devices listed below and are keen for stability, then I would advise not updating just yet in case of issues. Ideally I am looking for people to let me know these devices are in fact working well.
- Dimmer lights (D1)
- Colour lights (B1 and L1)
- RF and ZigBee bridge
- Garage door users the inching feature of this plugin has been removed so please make sure that your device has inching turned on through the eWeLink app (for one second or less). This may seem like a backward step, but, having the setting turned on in the eWeLink app is easily done and more reliable than this plugin mimicking the behaviour. I am keen to have feedback from garage door users to make sure everything still works properly.
- For Homebridge users, if you update and have issues and would like to rollback to the previous version, please use the following command in the Homebridge terminal window:
sudo npm -g i homebridge-ewelink@2.24.3
New Features
- Lock accessory type has been added mimicking the use of a button to unlock a door for a number of seconds before showing as locked again.
Improvements
- LAN mode accessories will now have their IP address updated if the plugin notices a change.
- Garage doors - if a request is sent to open the door while it is closing, or close the door while it is opening, the plugin will now send two "on" commands to the device - to mimic a first press of "stop halfway" and a second press to "then move the door up or down" as necessary.
Bug Fixes
- Fixed a bug where the plugin ignored online/offline notifications for devices.
2.25.0 → 2.25.1
- (Hopefully) Fixed a bug that would crash Homebridge when adding an RF bridge with no sub-devices
- Web socket closure bug #85
