SmartThings Button Support? #125

Open DMcWetty opened 1 year ago

I'm just looking to see if you can add support for basic buttons. Could be exposed as a simple On/Off switch. Right now they are only showing up as temp sensors.

I started on that, but given the delay resulting from the polling that the plug does for updates, it wouldn't be a great experience. I am working on a web hook version of the plugin that will update more reliably and closer to real time. Should be testing it soon. However, this will require a subscription since I'll be running services in the cloud and have to pay for that as well as maintain it.
