Hi Kieran, glad the house move was completed — have been seeing your updates on twitter!
I'd be delighted to take on your responsibilities and look after this excellent project you started.
@max-christian this is great news that you are taking over the plugin. I have tried a number of times now to install your fork on to my home bridge (hoobs) but literally not getting anywhere fast, would it be possible that you could tell me what i need to do or point me to a link... I think i managed to download it and ended up with a folder with your files in on my Pi , did an rpm install and then nothing else really happened, so got worried i would break something. I guess i have probably installed it in the wrong place ?! Thanks Nath
Hi Nath, sorry only just seen this. What I do is a normal clean install of the main build, then I use this command line to launch:
homebridge -D -P path/to/downloaded/files/
where the path specified is the folder containing index.js, package.json etc.
Cheers I’ll give it a go and see what I manage to break 😀
I've just tried to transfer ownership to you max-christian but I cannot as you already have a repository by that name, not sure how to fix that mind...
Hi @kieranmjones, hope you're settling in to your new home! I've just renamed my repo out of the way so maybe it will work now?
It seems it isn't just name, it is knows that your repo is in this repository. You possibly need to remove your repo completely, or I suppose merge your repo into this one before then removing it if you have changes?
Sorry for the delay on this, baby on the way shortly! Going to try to merge today so we can get this back on track.
@max-christian congrats on the baby ! Looking forward to seeing how this progresses. Not very good at coding but if you need anything testing .... 👍
Hi @kieranmjones , I did the pull request a few days ago, so hopefully we can get this done soon.
Apologies, I’ve merged your pull request. If you now remove your forked repo I should be able to make you the owner.
Thanks @kieranmjones ! I just deleted my repository... good luck!
That seems to have worked, thanks Kieran. I've added a link to you in the README. Do you have any tips on doing a release, is it pretty straightforward?
That’s great! Glad that’s worked! 🙂
I can’t remember how I did a release, here’s a help article that maybe will do the trick? https://help.github.com/en/github/administering-a-repository/managing-releases-in-a-repository
Ah, I think the final step you need to do is to add me as a collaborator on here? https://www.npmjs.com/package/homebridge-texecom
(I’m maxchr on there.)
If anyone wants to install the latest version in advance of the release, this command-line seems to work. If you've had trouble with serialport build errors, these might now be resolved:
sudo npm install -g --unsafe-perm git+https://git@github.com/max-christian/homebridge-texecom
I believe I have added you to that package and removed myself, hopefully. Let me know if that hasn’t worked!
I'm afraid to announce that I will no longer be able to develop this plugin, I am moving home and my new home at least for now does not include a Texecom alarm nor do I think I am necessarily going to install one.
This is a great plugin though and I know people are getting some good use of it so I am hoping someone might be interested in taking it over. I am informed that I can transfer a repository to another user so if there are any volunteers then please let me know.
@max-christian might you be interested?
