homebridge-roborock v0.5.5

homebridge-roborock

This plugin is a fork of homebridge-xiaomi-roborock-vacuum (thanks to Nico Hartung) with the following changes: 1) Changed the logic to periodically pull status from the device, make the accessories more responsive 2) Added support for go to target function 3) The room switches can be used to select multiple rooms before start cleaning. When cleaning fan is powered on, it automatically detects if the device should do a full house clean or room clean based on if any room is enabled for cleaning 4) Fixed the resume function so now it's possible to resume from room cleaning mode 5) More validation logic added together with some other small improvements 6) Fixed no gentle mode for Roborock S5 7) Auto configure the minimal step for fan service so for models with 4 speeds it will be 25% each level and for models with 5 speeds it will be 20% each level. It is no longer possible to choose other percentages.

Optional parameters

AutoRoom Generation

This feature seems to be working only on the S6 Model. We figured out this is why the Api call only delivers the mapping when the Rooms are named in the Xioami / Roborock App.

So when you have an S6 but not named the Rooms in your App this function will not work! Thanks @domeOo
