Validation schema not valid for cooking appliances #42

Open digitalhoax opened 6 years ago

digitalhoax commented 6 years ago

The validation schema found in this repo is not valid for cooking appliances described in the API documentation. Please update the schema to reflect these new categories.

i.e. the example discovery response for a MICROWAVE device is invalid.

Furthermore, the documentation is completely inconsistent on this topic, e.g. this documentation page lists supportedCookingModes whereas the link above lists the same field as cookingModes

Is there any place more appropriate to list these mistakes, as there are quite a few in the documentation that should really be updated.

Thanks for your feedback. I can comment on the docs issue. There was some last-minute renaming that resulted in the doc discrepancy you mentioned. This should be fixed now. An issue filed against the docs with a list of items to be fixed is fine. I have quite a large surface area to cover, and appreciate your input.

An internal ticket was opened on 2018-02-08 to address the validation schema and is still being tracked. Will update when resolved or resolution path is known.

@mikemaas-amazon @simchery Now, I also encountered the same problem is the discovery response for a MICROWAVE device is invalid.

I need the following help:

  1. Validation schema MUST BE VALID for discovery response for cooking appliances.
