Update the list of featured add-ons #453

Closed jimtng closed 3 months ago

jimtng commented 4 months ago

Some of the addons in the featured list no longer exist in OH4.

Also picked some bindings that I personally think would be more popular than the ones they replaced.

stefan-hoehn commented 4 months ago

First of all, thanks for updating this, definitely. However, I wonder who "decides" which of the plugins we want to feature? (yes, I saw that you mentioned it is your proposal 👍)

Nest was removed, but it still exists? Kodi as well.

Do you think they should be added back in? I might be wrong, but AFAIK Nest is no longer a current platform, i.e. it's shut down. I'm not sure how popular Kodi is. I'll add it back in.

WWN has been shut down, but the binding still supports SDM for integrating Nest products.

Is it something new people can buy and use or just for legacy / existing users?

In any case, do you have a specific recommended list in mind? Should I just revert the changes for the Binding section?

The products are still sold, and there might even be new products added. The SDM API was created by Google after the Nest takeover.

No, I don't have any list in mind, was just curious which criteria you applied when updating the list.

I'm wondering how the featured list plays together with suggestion finder (if at all)?

jimtng commented 4 months ago

It seems that I'm mistaken and I will put Sonos back on the list. Which other one should we knock out of the list?

I only used a guess to come up with the list. Not based on any facts. Just gut feeling.

See: https://github.com/openhab/openhab-webui/pull/2431#issuecomment-1970886742

Featured is a separate list on the website and in webui. In the webui, it is used to put on top some addons for specific categories in the addon store. Currently, no more featured bindings are shown in the addon store in the ui, as suggestions take precedence (could be changed back, but the list became too long, and suggested is probably more relevant than featured for bindings that may not work in that environment). Other categories still show featured.

jimtng commented 3 months ago

I'm really not sure what bindings to prioritise on the web site, so I've reverted it to the original list.

What was the reason to take out the javascript transformation?

Because it does not exist anymore.

I got in touch with @florian-h05 and he explained that this can be done now with https://next.openhab.org/addons/automation/jsscripting/#js-transformation instead.
