Add type configuration for value range properties #345

Closed St3ve32 closed 1 year ago

St3ve32 commented 1 year ago

Currently when there is a propertyControl for any value ranged property it is shown as a light-bulb. This allows convenient control of the property, but can be confusing when displaying in Homebridge UI or Home app. Example: fan-speed in an air purifier.

I think it would be nice to be able to set the type of the "device" in propertyControl.

Hi, thank you so much for adding the feature, it looks great in the Home app.

However if I set the property to fan, it won't allow me to change the speed. In the log I get:

[10/27/2022, 1:07:35 PM] [homebridge-miot] [Mi Air Purifier 3C] Property custom-service:favorite-speed seems to have already the value: 300. Set not needed! Skipping...

If I change it back to lightbulb, it works fine.

I tried to remove the air purifier and add it again, but it doesn't help.

Do you have any idea why this might be happening please?

Will have a look, might be a bug...
