Pyrebase VS homebridge-plugin-template

I would suggest not using the firebase authentication on the client and instead routing everything to the same authentication endpoint in Django. From Django, you can authenticate against Firebase (see Pyrebase).

A container that accepts actions from either HomeKit(via Homebridge) or Google Home (using pyrebase) and syncs the device states between them.

Pyrebase is a simple python wrapper for the Firebase API.

I followed the guide here: https://github.com/homebridge/homebridge-plugin-template

Yep, just fork it, the plugin template readme should be a good resource about what you need to change to be able to publish it and then use it in parallel: https://github.com/homebridge/homebridge-plugin-template/blob/master/README.md

I want to (learn how to) create a simple homebridge plugin that makes url calls that trigger actions on a device and show the status of the device. Currently I am using "Homebridge Http Switch" to make start and stop my Vacuum cleaner. I found https://github.com/homebridge/homebridge-plugin-template but it is kind of overkill for what I am trying to do I think. Could someone point me in the right direction if a simple plugin already exists that has kind of the same features so I only have to change the url-calls?

You should start with this homebridge template: https://github.com/homebridge/homebridge-plugin-template and the habitat api, (which I could not find), you could also reverse engineer the app and add it but that’s a paid in the 🍑.

Start taking a look at the official Homebridge API page: https://developers.homebridge.io/

• Template for Homebridge plugins: https://github.com/homebridge/homebridge-plugin-template

here are some detailed instructions on how to get the basics set up, here is a list of a bunch of things you can control that have pre-built plugins. And here is the gist for how the solar panel is controlled (though that was written after I built mine, so I can't speak to this article)

I am taking a swag at some plugin development, I downloaded the template from GitHub When I run npm run watch I can see my new plugin in Homebridge. The plugin in that repo adds two default accessories. Bedroom and Kitchen, I am not seeing these show up in the Homebridge UI, so I assume the plugin while installed isn't actually being invoked. Any ideas what I need to do to make that happen?
