[Feature Request]: ChargingStatus Switch #177

Closed jhawkbear closed 2 years ago

jhawkbear commented 2 years ago

Enhancement of issue

Charging Status is currently showing as a "Status" in HomeKit under the Accessory. Is it possible to importing this from HomeBridge into HomeKit as a virtual switch so that I can create automations based on the charging state?

For example, I would like to create an automation that will turn on a light when the vehicle is charging, and then turn the light off when charging is complete.

Solution

Interesting thought! I'll play around with this and update here if I have something to try out.

I finally got around to implementing this. You can try it out in the latest test version (v1.7.0-test.0). You can install it via the "Install Previous Version" menu in Homebridge. Also, you will need to enable this in the plugin settings under the "Advanced Settings". Let me know if this works for you!

This has been added in v1.7.0.
