Configuration issue with homebridge 1.7.0 / hoobs 4.3.1 #200

Hi there, I just struggled with the configuration of this plugin on homebridge 1.7.0 / hoobs 4.3.1.

Following Configuration was requried to create a motion device. The thing is, if clicked on "configuration" on the plugin, only the second part (homebridge-http-webshooks" is shown... but the sensors need to be configured unter the HttpWebHooks section - which is only available in the "Advanced" section.

"accessories": [],
"platforms": [
    {
        "platform": "HttpWebHooks",
        "sensors": [
            {
                "id": "motion1",
                "name": "Motion 1",
                "type": "motion"
            }
        ]
    },
    {
        "platform": "homebridge-http-webhooks"
    }
]

With my "old" hoobs (3.3.5) this was working fine, there was even a graphical interface for the configuration. still not sure wether this is a plugin issue or something I would need to address with hoobs?

someone with the same expierence?

My very first comment would be why are you using such an old version of Homebridge? Current version is v1.8.4. Update Homebridge then try again.

Thank you for that hint. I was even not aware of that, as I am using a new bought HOOBS Box. I assumed (wrongly) that with the latest HOOBS version I would get the latest homebridge as well - which is not the case obviously. Fun fact, I had running HOOBS on a older version now for approx 2 years and there the plug in worked quite fine.

I guess I will give homebridge (native) a try. And reach out to HOOBS in parallel if they would update their version.

Thanks!
