🚧 Developers Coding Questions

  1. Re: "command":"startLevelChange","type":["ENUM"]},

What are the ENUM options? How can you indicate what direction to level change? Can you indicate speed or other parameters eg a min or max where to stop?

  1. Re: "command":"setColor","type":["COLOR_MAP"]},

How do you setColor using this command? How does the "COLOR_MAP" variable have to be defined?

  1. "command":"configure","type":["n/a"]},

What does this command configure? What variables can you use?

  1. up, down. No you can't specify any other parameters in that command.
  2. You can't. Maker API does not support being passed a map, just strings. There are other posts on here about that. For color change use separate HSL commands instead of setColor.
  3. "Configure" is a standard capability. It does exactly 1 thing - issues a configure command to the driver. What the driver does when issued a configure command is device driver dependent, but it usually does things like set up notifications from device to hub and/or set specific configurable parameters to the driver default.
