🎉 3.0.0 🎉

Version 3.0 is here with a code refactor and a variety of "behind-the-scene" features to make this plugin work even better!


Breaking Changes

  • The following devices have not been tested. When you decide to upgrade (with this warning in mind), please let me know if they are working or not.
    • Irrigation valves, window blinds, garage doors, thermostats, RF Bridges and ZigBee bridges.

New Features

  • Ability to hide master switches for multi-channel light and switch devices [via the config]
  • Ability to set a custom low battery percentage threshold [via the config]
  • Ability to set a custom power wattage threshold for outlets to show as "OutletInUse" [via the config]
  • Support for the KING Q4 Blind/Curtain device

Improvements

  • If at anytime during the plugin setup process there is an internet connectivity issue, then the plugin will reattempt the connection to eWeLink after 15 seconds rather than stop loading entirely (with an error) [using an inteval to retry]
  • If you add a new device to your eWeLink account then you will no longer need to restart Homebridge to add it. It will be added automatically when it receives it's first update from eWeLink [this may not be immediate]
  • RF Bridge and ZigBee bridge main devices no longer show in Homebridge (less clutter!)
  • When a web socket message is sent to update a device, the plugin will now check for a definite "ok" response from eWeLink, and will show the device as non-responsive if there are any problems [using websocket-as-promised]
  • More specific logging upon startup about why LAN mode might be unavailable for your devices
  • The plugin will now close and reopen the web socket every 30 minutes as a way of preventing gradual lagging

What's Next?

  • Probably dealing with an influx of issues/bugs 😛
  • Blind device with two switches
  • Eachen garage door device
