Hello I am sure this must be written somewhere but I can seem to find it so please send me in the correct direction if it is there.
I have my normal home.items file where I kept all my information but it is getting rather large and I would now like to split it into different files for maintaining my system better.
So I would like to have a
switch.items - for all my switches
weather.items - weather station
ectr…
I have created the various items file but if I move a switch item from my home.items file to the switch.items file the switch no longer works in the classic UI. Now I assume that I would need to link to the new items file in the site map but I cannot find any info as to how to do that or does the sitemap “detect” the new item file?
Yes, no need for manual intervention.
If you have a lot of items it can take a minute after changing your items files until openHAB has read all the contents back in.
You may create as many individual *.items files as you want, those will be catched up by openHAB automatically.
If something does not work your openhab.log should tell you what is wrong …
