Homebridge 2.0 - New Release
Homebridge has been upgraded to version 2.0, and with that, there is a whole new way of doing things. The plugins are now separate modules that are installed independently. That means I will be able to update the homebridge-indigo plugin without needing to wait for it to be merged into homebridge. That also means it's easy for anyone else who wants to contribute improvements to the homebridge-indigo plugin to submit them to me for inclusion. Also, it makes it easy to install other homebridge plugins to bridge other systems into HomeKit.
Migrating from Homebridge 1.0
This section is only relevant if you were using Homebridge 1.0. First, if you were using Homebridge 1.0, you'll want to stop your homebridge server, take your config.json file and persist directory, and copy them into a new .homebridge (yes, with a leading period) directory in your home folder. You may want to edit your config.json as I have added new features. See below for more details. Here are example commands to move your files to the right location:
- Code: Select all
cd path-to-wherever-you-have-homebridge-installed
mkdir ~/.homebridge
cp -rp config.json persist ~/homebridge
