Request: Less Chatty in Log #3

Open ManBehindPlan opened 3 years ago

Hi!

First off, thank you for creating this plugin - I was looking for exactly this function to move humidity around the whole house, as I have a large humidifier in one room. Between a humidity sensor, a switchable plug, and this plugin, I have a robust solution!

I also think I'm going to build up a "circulate the house" approach later when things stabilize; the RTH6580WF thermostat I have doesn't have a mode to run the blower at intervals.

So, considering this, maybe this request is not a high priority.

I do frequently look at the Homebridge logs to determine why other plugins are working, or even some quick notice of sunrise/sunset times from Suncalc. Since installing the TCC FAN plugin, my log is now full of "normal state" status messages.

Would it be possible to have a Debug flag in the plugin that enables this chattiness, and leave only the hard errors logging in the non-Debug mode (errors like connection issues to TCC, reset connections, etc.)?

Thanks in advance for your consideration, and again, for your work on this plugin!

Hey @ManBehindPlan - checkout my fork. I've augmented it a bit and made the log less chatty.

Thanks @Freddicus - could you please tell me now to install the fork into Homebridge?

I now get an error on the UUID module, and had to remove the plugin. @NorthernMan54 fixed this in his plugin.

@ManBehindPlan I believe it's just sudo npm link - been a while since I installed / updated locally. But that's whats in my history.
