Adding new function to this plugin!

[TipsTricksMore]

Hey everyone, I changed the index.json to trigger the motion sensor when the switch in on but first disable the motion sensor when the switch is off. I needed that implementation for my automations. Feel free to use for your own or @aaronpearce you could implement it as an option inside the plugin. Thanks for your work!

index.json file direct download: index.json.zip

or the source code:

var Service, Characteristic;

module.exports = function(homebridge) { Service = homebridge.hap.Service; Characteristic = homebridge.hap.Characteristic;

homebridge.registerAccessory("homebridge-motion-switch", "Motion Switch", MotionSwitchAccessory); }

function MotionSwitchAccessory(log, config) { this.log = log; this.motionSensorName = config["motion_sensor_name"]; this.switchName = config["switch_name"]; this.switchState = false; this.motionSensorState = false;

this.motionSensorService = new Service.MotionSensor(this.motionSensorName); this.motionSensorService .getCharacteristic(Characteristic.MotionDetected) .on('get', this.getMotionSensorState.bind(this));

this.switchService = new Service.Switch(this.switchName); this.switchService .getCharacteristic(Characteristic.On) .on('get', this.getSwitchState.bind(this)) .on('set', this.setSwitchState.bind(this)); }

MotionSwitchAccessory.prototype.getMotionSensorState = function(callback) { callback(null, this.motionSensorState) }

MotionSwitchAccessory.prototype.getSwitchState = function(callback) { callback(null, this.switchState) }

MotionSwitchAccessory.prototype.setSwitchState = function(state, callback) { this.switchState = state

// When we turn this on, we also want to turn on the motion sensor this.trigger() callback(null); }

MotionSwitchAccessory.prototype.trigger = function() { if (this.switchState) { this.motionSensorState = 1; this.motionSensorService.setCharacteristic(Characteristic.MotionDetected, Boolean(this.motionSensorState)); } else { this.motionSensorState = 0; this.motionSensorService.setCharacteristic(Characteristic.MotionDetected, Boolean(this.motionSensorState)); }}

MotionSwitchAccessory.prototype.resetSensors = function(self) { self.switchState = 0

self.motionSensorState = 0 self.switchService.setCharacteristic(Characteristic.On, Boolean(self.switchState)); self.motionSensorService.setCharacteristic(Characteristic.MotionDetected, Boolean(self.motionSensorState)); }

MotionSwitchAccessory.prototype.getServices = function() { return [this.motionSensorService, this.switchService]; }
