Indigo Domotics

Looking for some help with troubleshooting this. Here's where I am:

I've had a solid HB-I setup running for months.

Bought a Hue Go, added it to Hue bridge no problem, added it to Indigo using the Hue Plugin no problem, it works fine in Indigo. I'm not running HBB.

Stopped and restarted HomeBridge at the command line. As it starts up, I can see that it sees the Hue Go by its Indigo device name "Reading Lamp."

Waited a while for things to percolate to HomeKit/my AppleTV/Home App/Whatever.

And here the problem starts: It never shows up in Home app or Eve. When I tell Siri "turn on the reading lamp" it responds by turning on ALL lights. Except the Reading Lamp!

Ideas?

One more troubleshooting step: I've now restarted my AppleTV. No joy.

homebridge-indigo only works with native devices - it doesn't support plugin devices.

ummmm.... I've been happily controlling my Hue lights with homebridge for months. Just this new one that's the problem.

And for clarity: I've been controlling them with hb-indigo because that's the ONLY way HomeKit knows about any of my devices. I have a V1 Hue hub with no Siri.

Also all my indigo virtual devices work with HB-I, as does my Harmony hub stuff.

It all depends on how the device presents itself via the Indigo RESTful API. What does the homebridge log file say?

Hmmm, this is since a reboot for other reasons.

The super odd thing is when I invoke HB-I, it seems to run fine and shows me this:

Code: Select all

[5/14/2017, 8:40:01 PM] Homebridge is running on port 51826.

Also, further back in the output:

Code: Select all

[5/14/2017, 8:40:00 PM] [Redacted] Discovered Color Lights (Aura, Bloom, StoryLight, LivingColors, etc.) (ID 304277966): Reading Lamp

BUT then later

Code: Select all

[5/14/2017, 8:40:01 PM] [redacted] Initializing platform accessory 'Pond pump'...
[5/14/2017, 8:40:01 PM] [redacted] Initializing platform accessory 'Rear Corner Spot'...
[5/14/2017, 8:40:01 PM] [redacted] Initializing platform accessory 'Recently Added'...

Notice no "Reading Lamp"

Could you send me the entire log in a PM?

That actually was the entire log.
