RESOLVED: ON/OFF Doesn't work

[KiqoCode]

Hi,

I use the homebridge-telldus plugin for homebridge, it does get my devices from telldus live but when I try to change the state of the device, nothing happends.

My config.json is as such:

{
    "bridge": {
        "name": "Homebridge",
        "username": "CC:22:3D:E3:CE:30",
        "port": 51826,
        "pin": "031-45-154"
    },

    "accessories": [
    ],

    "platforms": [
        {
            "platform" : "Telldus",
            "name" : "Telldus Liv!e",
            "public_key" : "secret",
            "private_key" : "secret",
            "token" : "secret",
            "token_secret" : "secret"
        }
    ]
}

When I use the "Eve" app on iOS (I have tried several but with the same result), in the terminal I get [9/13/2016, 4:01:14 PM] [Telldus Liv!e] [Giraff] Executing command bool : 1 and then nothing happens. In one app the 1 was changed to true but that didn't make a difference. And after that I get an error in the app saying HomeKit reported a communication failure. Please try again.

Anyone know a solution?

THis is a duplicate of this issue

Resolved. Removed index.js and replaced it with index.js and it works without any problems!

[steam0]

What is the difference between these index.js-files? @cisco92

[KiqoCode]

They look totally different.. I just looked at a swedish Telldus forum and they all used with index.js instead of the original one.. Works with all devices it seems like. Just try it out.. Keep the original for backup.

Maybe you should add a pull request for that index.js if this solves everyones problem?

[KiqoCode]

Yeah but I created my github account today.. So don't even know how to create a pull request.. xD

[steam0]

Meh, nvm I just did it.

Seems like he has already tried to add this as a pull request. Case closed and thank you.

[KiqoCode]

Did you try the replacement index.js to see if it worked??

[steam0]

It worked like a charm. :)

I spent an evening applying these changes manually and can confirm that these changes work! Great job. It would however be awfully nice to get them packaged in a npm package since the fix has some dependencies etc. that have to be manually installed.

[steam0]

We have tried. This dude just wont accept the pull request! 🙄

Hi and sorry for the really late response, haven't had time to work on this at all for a couple of months... It will be changed from now on :)

I've merged the pull request now anyways. Please confirm if it works and I'll close this.

Do you mind adding some of us as administrators to this project? I dont min answering questions and approving working pull requests.

I am the sole user in the homebridge-telldus channel on the official homebridge slack. Please do pop in if you want to.
