Command Syntax for friendly topics

[tsightler]

I don't think it's a bug, probably just poor documentation that could probably be more clear. The documentation does hint at the right thing to do in the example:

The template above defines two topics "state" and "brightness_state", and the template engine automatically creates the corresponding command topics, in this case specifically "command" and "brightness_command".

Basically, the expectation is the the template defines topics with the suffix of _state, and the engine automatically creates corresponding _command topics, so in your example it should be (just did one for and example):

SetTemp_state: {
        key: 106,
        type: 'int',
        topicMin: 18,
        topicMax: 40
      }

And then you can get state at tuya/waermepumpe/SetTemp_state and send commands to tuya/waermepumpe/SetTemp_command.

Thank you, that's it! So I just added _state to all of my topics and it works now "as expected" ;-)

I read the example several times and misunderstood the description. On the other hand now that you explained it in other words the documentation seems quite clear.

Thank you for your unbelievable fast support!

Glad you got it working.
