Hi there,
I hope i do not ask the same question again. When get additional accessory types in the home kit binding supported? I’m eagerly waiting for “rollershutter”.
Thanks,
Michael

@beowulfe ^ I’ve been wondering the same. Haven’t seen anything on the git repo yet and just curious if you’re still planning on implementing those changes.
Yes, I’d still like to - just need to find some time to actually do it. Now that the Holidays are over, I’m optimistic
Would be great if more is possible… Pressure is not supported and many other things…
any news here?
I’m also very interested in this.
Can i help you in any way to achieve this? I’m not a dev but maybe i can test the new stuff for you or something.
Thanks,
Michael
Taking a look at https://github.com/beowulfe/HAP-Java/tree/master/src/main/java/com/beowulfe/hap/accessories shows that there are already additional accessories not yet available in the openHAB2 HomeKit Add-on.
I personally would like to have an item to display a generic value (e.g. current power consumption in kW). And what would really to great: Camera item such that any (cheap) webcam could be added as a Homekit accessory.
So: Do you have some hints which files to touch or to add when trying to add a new accessory to your java library? I think the way to go is to 1st extend the HAP-Java library with a new accessory and then 2nd to update the HomeKit Add-on such that the new accessory is visible there. Right?
me too
Hopefully the publishment of HomeKit Accessory Protocol Specification brings a fresh breeze to the HomeKit Add-on.
I too hope to see more accessories in the add-on. I am currently hacking a ceiling fan remote with a NodeMCU board and MQTT. I have the fan mode and speed setup as Switch items in my configuration with “On, Off, Auto” fan modes (where Auto is based on the temperature from a DHT22 in the remote) and speed settings of “Low, Medium, High”. However, there is no way to configure these items into a HomeKit-compatible device as of yet…
Best thing you can do is chime in on https://github.com/eclipse/smarthome/issues/1093 and https://github.com/eclipse/smarthome/issues/3692 if you have any suggestions on how to resolve them. We’ve been struggling to come to a consensus there.
Just a view days until IOS11 hits general public - and no visible improvements on HomeKit integration on OH
… la lala lala lala … perhaps this is solved when iOS12 arrives, … in the meantime, I’ll use homebridge for the missing items …
I also switched to Homebridge a while ago since I see no progress in the OH2 implementation of Homekit. Thats really disappointing.
I tried the pre-release of the homekit addon to control my z-wave shutters.
It looks like state is inverted openhab says “closed”, homekit says “opened”. State in openhab is correct.
Is that possible?
pre-release of the homekit addon with roller shutter support? really??? Where did you get it? I can barely count the amount of month i’m waiting for that …
Merry Christmas
Thank you! Wish you happy holidays too!
