It took two tries but now Homebidge is up and running through Docker on my Synology NAS. I dont use HomeKit that much at all but it's far the best presence device I have tried. All in the family are using iPhones and setting a virtual switch that registrates our in and out of home zone works really well.
Thank you for your work with this and for your good guides and info @dan.t!
does it have to do with how HB is trying to set the color? I know my partcular light can use CT or RGB, but it looks like HB was trying to set Saturation/Hue. I am not sure if there's another way to have to set it.
It is even worse..... I can definitely see that HomeKit is sending a “set CT” to Homebridge even though I am trying to set a “Hue, Sat, Brightness” preset.... I am still digging
Hi @dan.t, hate to be the bearer of bad news but I had the out of sync issue again: HE was showing light was off and Home was showing it on. I did a reboot on the HE and when it came back on I tried refreshing the Home app but same issue. Then I rebooted my raspPI (only way I know how to restart Homebridge) and then it correctly synced the light state.
Not sure what is going on still. Just letting you know.
It's probably been a week since I have noticed it, but if I see it happen again I would be happy to send them. It was just a single dimmer so I figured it was just a fluke, and I hadn't checked my iPad to see if it was correct there.
Yes next time I will...mine is more frequent (couple of times a week) so I should be able to grab it shortly. Nothing to enable beforehand is there? Like special debugging parameters?
@Ken_Fraleigh, @walksonair,
One more question that just jumped to my mind: do you have any buttons exposed via MakerAPI to Homebridge? I remember that I fixed an issue with button events in the hubconnect version that caused a crash of the plugin and that could miss MakerAPI events. I never merged that fix in the makerapi version. Just did that and released a new version
