Homekit metadata through Karaf console

Setup, Configuration and Use Items & Sitemaps

Hi all,

I’m updating my homekit implementation from using tags to using metadata, because the tags are depricated and metadata can store more information.

For this, I now want to add a Vale with the irrigation type, which is shown in the documentation as following:
Group gValve "Valve Group" {homekit="Valve" [homekitValveType="Irrigation"]}

I know how to add the simple “Valve” information to the metadata, but how do I do this with the [homekitValveType="Irrigation"]} part?

Simply adding the “Valve” info the the gValue group do I do like this:
smarthome:metadata add gValve homekit Valve

Besides adding the irrigation info, I’m also wondering how to add 2 items like the example:
Switch valve_active "Valve active" (gValve) {homekit = "Valve.ActiveStatus, Valve.InUseStatus"}

As I figured it out by myself, I will answer myself for other people running into this problem.

This where the two commands in the Karaf console to use:

smarthome:metadata add gValve homekit Valve [homekitValveType=Irrigation]

smarthome:metadata add valve_active homekit "Valve.ActiveStatus, Valve.InUseStatus"
