Feature request: TwinDos Info for Washing Machines

[sirupflex]

What do you want to achieve? Is your feature request related to a problem?

For my Miele Washing Machine, one of the anticipated key benefits for me for the OpenHAB binding would be to see the status of TwinDos, i.e. what type of detergent (Ultra-Phase 1/2, etc.) and the remaining capacity/level (%) for each bottle/slot (Slot1, Slot2). In the Miele Android app you get this info, but there you only see this info if the Washing Machine is on and a program is selected. This is very annoying and not matching the general use case, unfortunately. I'd like to see the detergent type and capacity/level e.g. when I'm (online) shopping, without the need of turning on the machine and selecting a program.

Describe the solution you'd like

I'd like to have new Items/Channels for TwinDos, for "Slot/Bottle 1" and "Slot/Bottle 2", providing the info of which laundry detergent is used (e.g. "Ultra-Phase 1") and what is the remaining capacity/level (in %). This would be 4 new Items/Channels, e.g. Slot1_Detergent, Slot1_Level,Slot2_Detergent, Slot2_Level. I only need to read the info, no write access required. This info should be available to me even when no program is selected and when the Washing Machine is turned off. As an idea, please keep the last known status for the channel, even if the Washing Machine is off and cannot be polled for recent data.

Describe alternatives you've considered

None, a life without TwinDos is possible but meaningless :)

Is there something else that could be useful in the context of your feature request?

None, happy to be available for any questions / info if required

Edited the feature request title and text and replaced "AutoDos" with "TwinDos", because "TwinDos" is the correct marketing name used by Miele for washing machines.

Thank you for your suggestion, currently this feature is as #2 not part of our roadmap for the Miele 3rd party API, we may consider this for the future.
