Not an issue but an question

Leonoerlemans commented 6 years ago

Hi, thank you for this plugin. I am new to homebridge. I do know how to use the plugins, but I am getting stuck on altering them. I am hoping that you can and will help me to controle my environment with homebridge. Here is my situation:

since your plugin voor de blinds kind of resembles wat I need voor a dimmable lightbulb. Sounds strange but here is my situation:

I have created an arduino based device which can control 64 relays bij a HTTP command.

URL format: http://0.0.0.0/?XpYnnnn X = Board (A-B-C-D-E-F-G-H) p = Pin number (0-7) Y = Action to perform

H = Relay OFF
L = Relay ON
T = Toggle (ON > OFF & OFF > ON)
P = Pulse nnnnn milliseconds uses toggle

I can ONLY controle the light via a external switch: with two touch switches ON/+ and OFF/- each time a set of two relais is wired to the touch switches. When I:

give a short puls (200 ms) to the relay which controles the ON switch, the light goes ON give a short puls (200 ms) to the relay which controles the OFF switch, the light goes OFF keep the ON switch pressed (either bij a long puls or set the relay ON (with an URL) and after a certain time set the relay OFF (with an URL)), the light will turn brighter keep the OFF switch pressed (either bij a long puls or set the relay ON (with an URL) and after a certain time set the relay OFF (with an URL)), the light will get less brighter so I need to create a plugin with an config.jsn -file with parameters:

ON URL OFF URL duration time in ms (from fully off to fully on and visa versa ) brighter relay ON URL brighter relay OFF URL less brighter relay ON URL less brighter relay OFF URL Because I want to create a dimmable lightbulb in Homekit

I realize I ask for a lot, but can and will you help met with that.

Kinds regards,

Leon
