Error when adding an accessory

sebastien247 commented 4 years ago

Hi,

I obtain an error when I add an accessory to the config.json.

My config file:

{
    "bridge": {
        "name": "Homebridge 3911",
        "username": "XXXXXX",
        "port": XXXXX,

            "theme": "dark-mode",
            "tempUnits": "c",
            "lang": "auto",
            "platform": "config"
        },
        {
            "name": "Domoticz",
            "server": "XXXXXXXX",

        {
            "name": "Google Smart Home",
            "token": "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXxx",
            "notice": "Keep your token a secret!",
            "platform": "google-smarthome"
        },
        {
            "platform": "Blynk",
            "name": "Blynk",
            "serverurl": "XXXXXXXXXXXX",
            "token": "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX",
            "pollerperiod": "1",
            "accessories": [
                {
                    "name": "Distributeur",
                    "widget": "Switch",
                    "mode": "PUSH",
                    "caption": "Distribuer",
                    "pin": "V1"
                }
            ]
        }
    ]
}

Without this part:

            "accessories": [
                {
                    "name": "Distributeur",
                    "widget": "Switch",
                    "mode": "PUSH",
                    "caption": "Distribuer",
                    "pin": "V1"
                }
            ]

homebridge can start without any problem.

Thanks

Solved?

Hello, I have exactly the same problem after updating all my Homebridge system. Any solution ?

Works perfectly without any accessory, but when I add an accessory, Homebridge crases with same error log.

mpw-eng commented 3 years ago

I have the same problem - I think the new Homebridge version is expecting additional characteristics such as "Identify" and "FirmwareVersion"

Perhaps @doom369 may have someone that can fix this for us poor coding newbies who are more likely to do more harm than good ;-). I can't wait to say "Hey Siri, turn on my ESP32-Blynk light."

Hello,

Have you resolved the issue? I have exactly the same.

Thank you all

fbaudens commented 3 years ago

Hi I don’t remember if it’s working now, i´ve switched to home-assistant and i use node-red to interact with HA using Blynk web api. My homebridge now only use for connecting my Nest thermostat with Homekit
