Question: How is the robot vacuum integration supposed to work?

[JannThomas]

Describe Your Problem

I would like to understand the intention of the robot vacuum Integration.

Hi,

I am using this Plugin with my K10+ Robot vacuum. I would have assumed the configuration for it to be an on-off switch, where on means clean and off means go to Station. Currently it shows as a dimmable light bulb which always has a state of 100%. I can paste the logs here no problem, but from looking at the code it seems like this is intentional? Maybe I misunderstand how this integration is supposed to work?

Thanks a lot, Jann

I need to look over the code again, I don't have a robot so haven't been able to test it myself. I will take the time soon to get the code updated. I would also accept a PR if you are up to that?

[JannThomas]

Yeah I will take a look in the coming days, just wanted to confirm I don't miss something obvious before diving into that.

[JannThomas]

So, I finally got a look at this today and it turns out the fix is actually really simple, a one liner. Check out #1028 for it.

Merged into beta which will release a new beta with the changes for testing.
