Switch and brightness

[dariusrosendahl]

First of all, great plugin!

I'm a bit confused though. I got it working by setting "service": "fan", or "service": "light",.

However when I set it to switch the brightness control doesn't work even though it says so in the readme. Is there any way to to get this to work with speaker or switch?

Thanks!

The switch and speaker settings use Volume by default. You need to set brightness in config.json to use Brightness instead.

I did set the brightness. However the switch just stays an on/off switch. It does work with fan or light.

My config:

{
    "platform": "ZP",
    "service": "switch",
    "brightness": true,
   "speakers": false
}

Am I missing something?

That’s a limitation of the Home app. The Brightness should be recognised by Siri, though. See
#10 (comment).

I created PR #59 to explain this limitation in the readme.
