Fibaro RGBW controller appearing just as a dimmable light in HomeKit #16

Hi!

I just gave homebridge-homee a quick try because I was frustrated with Homee's own HomeKit support lately. (Feedback loops that make it impossible to set an RGB bulb's color...)

So, I set up homebridge-homee with one single device (filtered via homee device group) to play with. That's a Fibaro RGBW controller. The controller however turns up as a dimmable light with no color control in HomeKit (e.g. just a brightness fader and on/off switch).

How would I go about providing additional information? Can you tell if this is a problem with the homee plugin or homebridge itself?

Hi. Currently the color selection is not supported yet. I started the implementation a few months ago, but it doesn't work properly yet. I can deal with it again in the next few weeks, but I can't promise anything.

Would you be available for an alpha test?

Sure, I'd be happy to test. Just one caveat: I'm a C++ programmer with just a little bit of JS knowledge, so I would need a tip how to install development versions if necessary. My foo only consists of npm install -g so far. :)
