Structure

Key	Description
`accessory`	Must be `Thermostat`
`name`	Name to appear in the Home app
`apiroute`	Root URL of your Thermostat device (excluding the rest of the requests)
`temperatureDisplayUnits` (optional)	Whether you want °C (`0`) or °F (`1`) as your units (`0` is default)
`currentHumidity` (optional)	(`true` or `false`) Whether to include `currentRelativeHumidity` as a field in `/status` (`false` is default)
`targetHumidity` (optional)	(`true` or `false`) Whether to include `targetRelativeHumidity` as a field in `/status` and be able to set it via `/targetRelativeHumidity` (`false` is default)
`heatOnly` (optional)	(`true` or `false`) Whether the thermostat only supports heating (`true`) or heating and cooling (`false`) (`false` is default)
`maxTemp` (optional)	Upper bound for the temperature selector in the Home app (`30` is default)
`minTemp` (optional)	Lower bound for the temperature selector in the Home app (`15` is default)
`timeout` (optional)	Time (in milliseconds) until the accessory will be marked as "Not Responding" if it is unreachable (`5000` is default)

API Interfacing

Your API should be able to:

Return thermostat info when it recieves /status in the JSON format like below:

{
    "targetHeatingCoolingState": INT_VALUE_0_TO_3,
    "targetTemperature": FLOAT_VALUE,
    "currentHeatingCoolingState": INT_VALUE_0_TO_2,
    "currentTemperature": FLOAT_VALUE
}

Note: You can also add the currentRelativeHumidity and targetRelativeHumidity fields individually or together above if enabled in the config.json (read Structure)

Set targetHeatingCoolingState when it recieves:

/targetHeatingCoolingState/{INT_VALUE_0_TO_3}

Set targetTemperature when it recieves:

/targetTemperature/{INT_VALUE}

If enabled in config.json (read Structure), set targetRelativeHumidity when it recieves:

/targetRelativeHumidity/{FLOAT_VALUE}

HeatingCoolingState Key

Number	Name
`0`	Off
`1`	Heat
`2`	Cool
`3`	Auto

Heatmiser Support

Folder 'heatmiser' contains a contributed example of the API. It supports Heatmiser wireless thermostats, as long as https://github.com/thoukydides/heatmiser-wifi is installed and working.
