More Information

Hi,

This is simple HTTP plugin covering Interaction with Switch and reading Sensor JSON data. Each accessory can be adjusted inside config (see Config example). Main reason i have wrote this code is not to be dependent on non maintained plugins which were causing my homebridge to crash. I'm using it on iot devices built by my self.

There are similar plugins out there but none of them are verified. I'm new to this kind of process, I hope i did it OK :)

Best regards, Kreso

Hi @kreso975 I think your config.schema.json file isn't quite right, and it is only showing the name and description fields in the UI settings.

I think you need to move this devices up into schema.properties

https://github.com/kreso975/homebridge-http-sensors-switches/blob/e4e622a742bff97414ccbc16a753129850b6c2c8/config.schema.json#L19

[kreso975]

Hi @bwp91,

Thank you for taking the time to check my plugin. To be honest, I somewhat forgot to properly set up the schema. I wasn’t sure what the best approach would be to get it right. I’ll dig into it, make the necessary adjustments, and let you know.

Thanks again for your time.

Kreso

Hi @bwp91, “I have rewritten config.schema.json and released an update. It should work now. Please check it and let me know if everything is OK.
