HAP-NodeJS VS homebridge-config-ui-x

Doing a bit of digging, I found the Charaacteristic definition in https://github.com/homebridge/HAP-NodeJS/blob/master/src/lib/definitions/CharacteristicDefinitions.ts. I'm still a bit new to Typescript... what would the best way / place for me to modify this Characteristic? Do I need to just make this change here and basically run a custom version of Homebridge?

Well, the API only provides m3 values, and the plugin you suggested is only displaying 2 decimals instead of 3 in homekit (most likely a homekit limitation; since in homebridge 3 [and even 4] decimals are listed, and the accuracy of the sensor seems to be 0.0001 - as listed on https://github.com/homebridge/HAP-NodeJS/blob/master/src/lib/definitions/CharacteristicDefinitions.ts )

HAP-NodeJS Pull: HomeKit Secure Video #920

My goto place regarding this is the HAP-NodeJS repository

They're related in that u/koushd contributed https://github.com/homebridge/HAP-NodeJS/pull/904 to Homebridge, which was completed and merged with many of their commits in https://github.com/homebridge/HAP-NodeJS/pull/920.

Yeah this appears to be the relevant discussion on it: https://github.com/homebridge/HAP-NodeJS/pull/918 I guess Raspbian does not ship with avahi by default.

I looked at libraries like HAP-NodeJS or HAP-python, but those seems focused on:

There is already a report https://github.com/homebridge/homebridge-config-ui-x/issues/1912

I can't even search for plugins without getting a similar timeout error. I've tried everything in the Troubleshooting page, and the only thing that works at all is disabling ipv6 on my Eero Pro 6e network, which seems like a less desirable option. The Pro 6e doesn't have Homekit security features, and I don't have advanced security turned on. I've tried disabling ipv6 on the RPi and in Homebridge, but I'm only following random posts I find online, so I'm not even sure if I did that correctly. Sometimes I make a change and can no longer get into Homebridge through the portal, then I have to reinstall.

All these Terminal commands can be found here or in Terminal by typing

You should post a new enhancement issue to the repo

hb-service is part of the config-ui-x plug-in. You’ll need to install that first.

The UI has its own rest api

You should be able to remove specific accessories from displaying in Home via your homebridge, you can start homebridge in insecure mode: https://github.com/oznu/homebridge-config-ui-x/wiki/Enabling-Accessory-Control which should enable you to control accessories.
