Nice idea, I considered making this as a Homebridge plugin at first; ended up going with MQTT targeted specifically at home-assistant compatibility in the end, and I'm using Homebridge-homeassistant to get them added to HomeKit... home-assistant has native HomeKit integration now too, but I've yet to try it.

The other thing that's worth mentioning (though you may have already figured it out), is that you have to call connect() before any of the other actions will actually do anything.
