Garage door opener #47

Open dcaccount opened 6 years ago

dcaccount commented 6 years ago

Hello,

I am using your great plugin to trigger a relay that opens and closes my garage door.

I works perfectly but being a switch I need to tell Siri “switch on the garage door” instead of “open the garage door” and above all I do not get any notification.

Is there a way above all to implement notifications?

Thanks, Dan

And just say Siri “open” or “close” the garage.

Thanks, this is clear but I do understand what is written between brackets in the description of the parameter: “(err on the side of being longer than it actually takes)”.

Then I do not understand the purpose of this parameter, can you please clarify?

Thanks, Dan
