Hi Tim,
Agreed, but what do you think the plugin should do when we encounter fatal errors? Do you think a red line warning in the log is enough?
Also, I'm guessing the error here is that login failed due to missing MFA but could you please confirm?
Yeah. It could fail gracefully -- handle the error, report on it and not crash homebridge :) Then retry. Other plugins do this. It just needs better error handling here.
Looks like a server side error, not related to config. The API seems to fail sometimes, crash homebridge, then they recover and everything continues on.
I'm not sure if this is applicable, something new the myQ plugin is doing to add even more failure handling...

They have multiple API endpoints, east and west. The plugin sees a failure and switches the API endpoint used, continues on. In this case it has helped a lot, but it's also how myQ has built their infra. Bit of extra effort to keep the plugin rolling. Maybe alarm.com has different options.
Just pushed up some code to the beta branch which will stop homebridge crashing the getAccountSettings() method fails.
Cool, I’ve updated!

Fixed in b7736ea
Resolved in stable v1.10.1
Describe the bug Alarm.com threw an error and the plugin crashed Homebridge entirely. Requires better error handling.
