    NuHeat Homebridge plugin

  • Me: Developer of https://github.com/senorshaun/homebridge-nuheat here. I'm having issues with HOOBs users installing this plugin. The config.schema.json has the pluginAlias set as NuHeat (not the capitalization of the H). This is also how the platform is defined within the plugin.It looks like HOOBs (and not hombridge-config-ui-x) is saving the configuration as a Nuheat (uncaplitalized) in the config.json. It also saved a blank plugin block with the correct name. For example, this is what was saved on the new install.{"accessories": [],"platforms": [{"platform": "NuHeat"},{"platform": "Nuheat","name": "NuHeat","password": "password","email": "[[email protected]](mailto:[email protected])"]}]}

  • homebridge-raspbian-image

    Official Homebridge Raspberry Pi Image based on Raspberry Pi OS Lite.

  • Spread the word: HOOBS is a waste of time and money, and is a drag on developers' precious time. Now that Config-UI-X is included and the official Homebridge image is so easy to flash and install, there's very little reason for HOOBS to exist.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
