🆒

I can attempt to do a quick first pass in making this work, but not actually having a thermostat is definitely going to make doing this complicated.

i would try my best to help you..
as far i remember there is a demo thermostat ? https://github.com/balloob/home-assistant/blob/dev/homeassistant/components/thermostat/demo.py

I can spin up a branch, but you're going to have to know how to use checked out versions of homebridge plugins to test it. I can't publish it until it actually works. And I certainly can't publish it over and over to see if it works.

Someone could always just send me an Ecobee too, heh.

npm install <githubname>/<githubrepo>[#<commit-ish>] sounds not too complicated.

So, after taking a look at this, I've decided not to move forward with it. The primary reason is simple: I don't have a smart thermostat.

While I'd love for this plugin to support it, I just don't have time to devote to something that I can't actively test or get anything out of. Open source can be very self serving and that's definitely the case for this plugin. My apologies for things being like this, but I just don't have the time available to write something in the blind and that I'm not going to get anything out of.

That being said, I absolutely welcome any contributions for this feature, thats actually the real beauty of open source :)

So, I'm going to just close this for now.

maybe now some more peoples are working on this.. we can reopen it @maddox ? perhaps someone else is willing to add climate to this plugin?
