Mac OS X Install

[TomBoehm]

The preinstall script fails because there exists no binary apt-get in Mac OS X "preinstall": "sudo apt-get install git-core libnss-mdns libavahi-compat-libdnssd-dev -y"

Hi Tom, I think you are my Apple Teacher...

I've uploaded a new Version of ioBroker.homekit.

Hi husky-koglhof

I tried (on Mac OS X 10.11.1)

I do not know if all the things, you try to preinstall are required im Mac OS X Example „libavahi-compat-libdnssd-dev“ => That is something about Zerovonf / Bonjour Mac OS X has already implemented Bonjour

Hi Tom, sorry, the main.js is implemented and tested on Mac OS X El Capitan. But the module is currently only under Debian/Raspian available.

Currently i'm testing the Installation Procedure. If it's working correct, i will implement a generic installer for all Operating Systems.

greetings Christian

[TomBoehm]

Thx for the feedback - I removed the preinstall script line from package.son => and it installs without problems

[husky-koglhof]

Hi Tom,

that's cool. This Adapter will only work with the Devices described in Readme.md. I've tested this Adapter with the Elgato Eve App. You have to give all needed Objects a correct Name within ioBroker. e.g. HM-CC-TC Thermostat (hm-rpc.0.JEQ0225305.1.TEMPERATURE) must have a Name (e.g. Living Room) e.g. HM-LC-Sw1-FM Switch (hm-rpc.0.KEQ0254722.1) must have a Name (e.g. Light)

greetings Christian

Did not get that far: homekit.0 Error: EACCES: permission denied, mkdir '/persist' at Error (native) at Object.fs.mkdirSync (fs.js:799:18) at Function.sync (/Users/localadmin/Documents/iobroker/node_modules/iobroker.home homekit.0 error uncaught exception: EACCES: permission denied, mkdir '/persist'

Did chmod -R 777 /Users/localadmin/Documents/iobroker/node_modules/iobroker.home - problem remains.

Hi, i've uploaded a new Version, cause of Troubles with HAP-NodeJS.

Can you try it?

[TomBoehm]

A big step forward! After creating the folder "persist" via

sudo mkdir '/persist' 

the adapter starts and Elgato Eve can access my devices. Maybe we could move the folder from

/persist 

to

/Path_to_iobroker/iobroker-data/persist 

to avoid sudo

If I try to switch, I get an error

error   hm-rpc.0 binrpc -> setValue: no dpType for hm-rpc.0.EEQ0023884.1undefined!

I have tested with devices of type "HM-LC-Sw1-Pl" and "HM-LC-Sw4-PCB" Is there a way for me to add these device types ?

[husky-koglhof]

Hi,

for /persist, I've to analyse the hap-nodejs code. You can add a new Type with the following Procedure (currently it's not implemented within admin site)

Open the Object "system.adapter.homekit.0" within ioBroker and change the Attribute "Accessories" to the following:

[husky-koglhof]

Hi Tom,

there's a new version 0.0.5 uploaded. Now you can implement new Devices from iobroker admin Site.

greetings Christian

[husky-koglhof]

Can you give me a short Feedback if you've successfully tested new Devices?

Then i will implement it within io-package.json as Default.
