I can't make the plugin to work.

[SergeStre]

Hello! I'm trying to start this plugin and went through 3 steps except step 2. I don't understand what I have to do on step 2. And I'v got some errors then homebridge starts. Here is the snapshot.

The error is in your config.json file at line 83. Can you post your config.json or test it in https://jsonformatter.curiousconcept.com. Can you give me your OSX version and your Mac model ?

STEP 2 : In homebridge-macosx-info.sh script : 1/ You can change path of temporary .json files -> var JSON_DATA_FILE 2/ You can change path and option of check_osx_smc binary -> var CHECK_OSX_SMC For adapte option of check_osx_smc your must read :

• The hardware compatibility -> https://github.com/jedda/OSX-Monitoring-Tools/blob/master/check_osx_smc/known-registers.md and read the README in https://github.com/jedda/OSX-Monitoring-Tools/blob/master/check_osx_smc/README.md

Best regard Alexandre

I have installed plugin using sudo npm install -g --unsafe-permhomebridge-macosx-info as Homebridge didn't start saying "Error: The requested accessory 'MacOSXSysInfo' was not registered by any plugin." Config.json is absolutely valid, you can check it by yourself. { "bridge": { "name": "Homebridge", "username": "CC:22:3D:E3:CE:30", "port": 51770, "pin": "031-45-154" }, "ports": { "start": 52100, "end": 52150, "comment": "This section is used to control the range of ports that separate accessory (like camera or television) should be bind to." }, "platforms": [ { "platform": "MiPhilipsLightPlatform", "deviceCfgs": [ { "type": "MiPhilipsSmartBulb", "ip": "10.0.1.13", "token": "e9513a296a6f0406ed874a89ca6653e8", "lightName": "Свет", "lightDisable": false } ] }, { "platform": "config", "name": "Config", "port": 8091, "log": "/Users/macmini/.homebridge/logfile.log", "restart": "sudo systemctl restart homebridge.service" }, { "platform": "Shelly", "name": "Shelly" } ], "accessories": [ { "accessory": "MacOSXSysInfo", "name": "macOSX Info", "file": "/tmp/_homebridge-macosx-info.json", "serial": "042-03-000", "consumption": true, "user": true, "updateInterval": 60000 } ] } My system: Macmini 5.1 Mac OS X 10.9.5

Hi, Can you send me "/tmp/_homebridge-macosx-info.json" file ? In README.md on STEP 2 you must change option of check_osx_smc in homebridge-macosx-info.sh for adapt it for your Mac ("See the hardware compatibility -> https://github.com/jedda/OSX-Monitoring-Tools/blob/master/check_osx_smc/known-registers.md").

And try to start homebrige with this config file ( I just deleted "consumption": true, "user": true) {
"bridge":{
"name":"Homebridge", "username":"CC:22:3D:E3:CE:30", "port":51770, "pin":"031-45-154" }, "ports":{
"start":52100, "end":52150, "comment":"This section is used to control the range of ports that separate accessory (like camera or television) should be bind to." }, "platforms":[
{
"platform":"MiPhilipsLightPlatform", "deviceCfgs":[
{
"type":"MiPhilipsSmartBulb", "ip":"10.0.1.13", "token":"e9513a296a6f0406ed874a89ca6653e8", "lightName":"Свет", "lightDisable":false } ] }, {
"platform":"config", "name":"Config", "port":8091, "log":"/Users/macmini/.homebridge/logfile.log", "restart":"sudo systemctl restart homebridge.service" }, {
"platform":"Shelly", "name":"Shelly" } ], "accessories":[
{
"accessory":"MacOSXSysInfo", "name":"macOSX Info", "file":"/tmp/_homebridge-macosx-info.json", "serial":"042-03-000", "updateInterval":60000 } ] }

The error is in the .json respond file : The "power" key is empty {
"updateTime":"Tue Oct 1 19:35:26 YEKT 2019", "temperature":45.0, "fan":1798, "power":, "uptime":"up 16 days", "load":"0.45 0.35 0.34", "freemem":8.11, "disk":"38", "user":3 }

Your hardware is not compatible with this function. So you must delete in your config.json file the MacOSXSysInfo accessories and remplace with this lines.

"accessories": [ { "accessory": "MacOSXSysInfo", "name": "macOSX Info", "file": "/tmp/_homebridge-macosx-info.json", "user": true, "serial": "042-03-000", "updateInterval": 60000 } ]
