Use as a Trigger in HomeKit

[doooh]

Hi,

thanks for sharing this plugin with us. I tried to set it up in Homebridge and so far everything seems to work fine. Homebridge knows the plugin and the Home app knows the service and shows the correct lux values. However I tried to set up a trigger based on this service (if lux value = 0.0001, then turn on the lights) and this does not seem to work.

Were you successful in using this service as a trigger?

Thanks in advance.

I experienced the same problem and ultimately decided to use hardcoded timed triggers. I'm not sure why it doesn't work. Unfortunately, it's difficult to debug since there are no real world light sensor devices for HomeKit.

I was trying to get this to work with the Home app in iOS 10, but it never shows the value for me, while other apps like Hesperus do. Did any of you guys experience this?

Edit:
This issue solved itself in beta 4, so I guess it was just a bug in iOS 10. I'm now looking at getting triggers to work as well, so I'll let you know if I make any progress.

Hi there, any luck with this yet? Would be nice addition to be able to use this as a sensor.
