[Feature Request] Grouped Accessoires iOS13

[crbyxwpzfl]

I like this feature of an other homebridge plugin. With IOS 13 it's now possible to have different tiles (accessorise) grouped into one tile. While long pressing on it it will reveal them. For example it's possible to have two switches grouped:

I have no idea how much effort it would be to implement this.
Just thought I post it here.

Hmm, I wonder how it's done. I will have a look.

I thought this can be done already with cmd4 using "linkedTypes". I have done it and the example below is using the type "Switch" as parent but displayed as "Fan" in HomeApp with a type "Fan" as "linkedTypes". The config.json file for that is attached for your reference.

            {
                "type": "Switch",
                "displayName": "Aircon Fan",
                "on": "FALSE",
                "name": "Aircon Fan",
                "manufacturer": "Advantage Air Australia",
                "model": "e-zone",
                "serialNumber": "Daikin e-zone",
                "queue": "A",
                "polling": [
                    {
                        "characteristic": "on"
                    }
                ],
                "state_cmd": "'/usr/local/lib/node_modules/homebridge-cmd4-advantageair/AdvAir.sh'",
                "state_cmd_suffix": "${IP}",
                "linkedTypes": [
                    {
                        "type": "Fan",
                        "displayName": "Fan Speed",
                        "on": "TRUE",
                        "rotationSpeed": 100,
                        "name": "Fan Speed",
                        "manufacturer": "Advantage Air Australia",
                        "model": "e-zone",
                        "serialNumber": "Daikin e-zone",
                        "queue": "A",
                        "polling": [
                            {
                                "characteristic": "on"
                            },
                            {
                                "characteristic": "rotationSpeed"
                            }
                        ],
                        "state_cmd": "'/usr/local/lib/node_modules/homebridge-cmd4-advantageair/AdvAir.sh'",
                        "state_cmd_suffix": "${IP} fanSpeed"
                    }
                ]
            },
