Remove existing accessory from cache #73

Open mkz212 opened 4 months ago

mkz212 commented 4 months ago

Great template. But there is no function that removes existing accessories from the cache when they are no longer in the setup. Currently, there are only two options: get from cache or add new ones.

Hey @mkz212,

Will this work for you? https://github.com/uswong/homebridge-plugin-template/blob/latest/src/platform.ts

The lines I have added to remove those existing accessories not restored from cache are as follow: https://github.com/uswong/homebridge-plugin-template/commit/8358c8cb7f454a759569959782121171d3d4ade6

For me it seems to be ok, but @bwp91 should take a look, he maintain this and knows it best.
