what if apcaccess, but in homebridge??

homebridge-apcaccess

An apcaccess wrapper for Homebridge. Supports precisely one UPS. If you're on battery power, the Contact Sensor is open.

This accessory:

• Is essentially a worse version of homespun/homebridge-accessory-apcupsd which I was too dumb to get working.
• Publishes a BatteryService to show charging state / battery levels.
• Publishes ContactSensor two subscribable events: Contact State and Low Battery, for your push alerting pleasure.
• Optionally publishes a TemperatureSensor if you have a fancy UPS which reports this.

Configuration

The plugin will run with these default values, they can be changed in the accessories: [] section of homebridge config:

{
    "name": "APC UPS",
    "host": "127.0.0.1",
    "port": 3551,
    "manufacturer": "American Power Conversion'",
    "model": "APCAccess UPS",
    "serial": "unknown",
    "interval": 1,
    "temperatureSensor": false,
    "errorLogsOnly": false
}

interval is in seconds.

homebridge-apcaccess's Issues

Unable to change log level

Getting the following error if I set errorLogsOnly: true

[APC Smart-UPS] Polling UPS service failed: TypeError: this.log.update.warn is not a function

Suppress Logs

Would there be the possibility to stop the logs, perhaps by defining a debug and a deploy mode?

problem with 'ECONNREFUSED'

The plugin, whatever version I use, throws an error:

Couldn't connect to service: Error: connect ECONNREFUSED ::1:3551
at TCPConnectWrap.afterConnect [as oncomplete] (node:net:1300:16) {
errno: -111,
code: 'ECONNREFUSED',
syscall: 'connect',
address: '::1',
port: 3551

my json file configuration is

{
"name": "SAI bateria",
"accessory": "APCAccess",
"location": "127.0.0.1",
"port": 3551,
"manufacturer": "Fujitsu APC",
"model": "FJT750i",
"serial": "AS1305696928",
"interval": 1
}

I'v tried other IPs, and seems that 'address' block always stays at: '::x',

can you help me please?

enhancement: Homekit App status

Is it possible to add the following information in the Homekit App status?
Battery Level
Charging State
Mains power

Thanks

Please Fix

Hi there
This plugin is just what I’m after. Something to tell me when my house IT falls down and I can tell my wife to shut things down…whilst I’m working in a foreign country.
But I have a wee snag in that I can’t get it to work.
Can I send you a debug report so you could tell me what I’ve done wrong? Probably best if I can send it to you direct as I do bones not computers. Not sure how to run through everything and anonymise it.
