Updated configurability

[ronaldsteen]

Hi,

I've updated configurability. You can now specify pins and addresses.

Cheers, Ronald

I`m just testing your versions of homeduino and pimatic-homeduino. It seems to miss an action called readDstSensors, which is called at the beginning of homeduino.coffee.

error [pimatic-homeduino]: Couldn't connect to homeduino device: Object # has no method 'readDstSensors'.

[ronaldsteen]

It requires the adjusted version of homeduinojs too. By default you get the current version of that package. You can replace it by manually cloning my homeduinojs version in your node_modules folder.

Let me know if you need more detailed instructions for testing it.

Sorry, seems that it did not copy homeduninojs. Now it is working. Although there seems to be a wrong type of the temperature variable.

in homeduino.coffee: attributes: temperature: description: "the meassured temperature"
type: "string"
unit: '°C' pin: "number" address: "string"

I think it should be: attributes: temperature: description: "the meassured temperature"
type: "number" <---- has to be number
unit: '°C' pin: "number" address: "string"

Thanks. I've just updated it.

I've remote the pin and address attribute, because I think it does not make much sense to have this as an attribute visible in the gui.

Thanks again for the additions. Please sync back my changes to your repository if you want to make additional changes.

Could it be that you deleted the temperature attribute with the pin and the address attribute? Or am I blind :(

[ronaldsteen]

I thought the format was wrong.. pin and address were part of temperature, now they're separate attributes.

attributes:
      temperature:
        description: "the meassured temperature"    
        type: "number"    
        unit: '°C'
      pin:
        description: "The pin that the sensor is connected to."
        type: "number"
      address:
        description: "The address of the sensor."
        type: "string"

I delete all, because the temperature attribute gets inherit from TemperatureSensor anyway.

thanks for your explanation. I`m just getting the hang of the programming for ardunio and pimatic (coffee)
