  • The expample you’re sharing is for a platform plugin, it’s a more complex use case, in this case is more easier for you to go with this example https://github.com/homebridge/homebridge-examples/tree/master/accessory-example-typescript which is for an accessory. Let me know if you need some help and I can give you some tips there.

  • homebridge-plugin-template

    A template you can use to create your own Homebridge plugins.

  • 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?
