Is there any interest in a plugin for Bond Ceiling Fan controller if I write one?

I don't know if anyone is working on a Bond plug-in.

Hi guys, I'm actually working on Bonds plugin FYI

It will be HS4 only plugin I'm afraid

[alexbk66]

BTW guys, can you please list the Bond device models you are using.
Anybody uses Bond Bridge?

[alexbk66]

I would gladly provide reputable developer with a Bond unit to program a plugin with.

bmsmithvb What unit are you offering (to reputable developer )? Is it Bond Bridge?

[bmsmithvb]

Yes. That’s the only Bond unit I am aware of.

[alexbk66]

Yes. That’s the only Bond unit I am aware of.

Ok, Bond is sending me the Bond Bridge for testing, so it's all good.

I got my Bond Bridge today and set it up to control a ceiling fan. So far, so good. Count me in as a purchaser of the plugin, when it is available for HS4. Elliott

Hi guys, I have a Beta version for testing. Can't publish it in the updater, I get a funny error:

You must have a Beta Version for your product when releasing a Beta

Until problem is fixed by HST - attached is the zip and updater_override.txt for manual install.

Notes:

1. This is a BETA version only for testing the Bridge discovery and device creation. The controls don't work.
2. After installing and enabling the plugin it will create the Bridge root device with status "Unauthorised"
3. You need to reboot the Bridge (with plugin running) to get the authentication token.
4. When the token is obtained - the plugin will create the child devices - not functional yet.

Thanks. I will test this later today.

[alexbk66]

Thanks. I will test this later today.

BTW, updater problem is fixed, so the plugin can be installed from BETA section.

[alexbk66]

Thanks. I will test this later today.

To get the actions/commands working I suspect I will need input from the users - most of them are device specific, so I don't think I can implement anything generic, except for On/Off probably.
