Let me know if you actually get a low battery warning. In my case, it never happened and pretty sure my battery just died.

Curiously, it appears when there is no contact with the door position sensor, battery reports as 100%.

Getting a whole bunch of errors in the log that look like that:

Am currently running the latest https://github.com/oznu/docker-homebridge with this plugin installed (v1.0.5)

I get this error when I use the plugin? Also, what info do you use if you have 2 separate garage doors at your house?
This plugin generated a warning from the characteristic 'Target Door State': characteristic was supplied illegal value: number 4 exceeded maximum of 1.

Thank you, love to get this corrected.

Hi... I have one Genie Controller and two doors. I am consistently seeing the following error in HomeBridge:

Here is what my config section (minus credentials) looks like:

{
"name": "Garage Door 1",
"username": "",
"password": "",
"status_update_delay": "15",
"poll_state_delay": 20,
"accessory": "AladdinConnectGarageDoorOpener"
},
{
"name": "Garage Door 2",
"username": "",
"password": "",
"status_update_delay": "15",
"poll_state_delay": 20,
"device_number": 0,
"garage_number": 2,
"accessory": "AladdinConnectGarageDoorOpener"
}

Any assistance with this would be helpful. Thanks

First of all thank you for the plugin. Works well so far.
The following is really not a bug but an enhancement request: When Home Bridge/HOOBS restarts services/plugins, this plugin announces to Apple Homekit/Home app and to the user the status of the garage doors even when the user is not actively using the Home app. I have 3 garage doors and my wife thought it was funny at first but now is wondering if she is going to be notified in the middle of the night with the status of the garage doors.
Please enhance so that just the status when in the Home app is updated when services are restarted and the user is not formally notified of the status of the garage doors.
Thank you
Jay

[Battery Level] characteristic value expected valid finite number and received "NaN" (number)

I am using the following code from the Hoobs 4 plugin for Aladdin Connect and nothing is happing.
{
"accessories": [
{
"accessory": "AladdinConnectGarageDoorOpener",
"name": "Garage Door",
"status_update_delay": 15,
"poll_state_delay": 20,
"device_number": 0,
"garage_number": 1,
"battery_low_level": 15,
"ignore_errors": false,
"log_polling": false,
"allow_debug": false,
"username": "[email protected]",
"password": "#########"
}
],
"platforms": []
}

It installs fine and adds to HomeKit fine even shows the door open and close but nothing actually happens to the garage door. I am using the ower account information as I am the owner. please help.

Every time HomeBridge is restarted, the garage is stuck in a state of Opening… even though it is closed and not opening.

I've been trying to figure out why this plugin has just not worked for me at all recently. I've tracked it down to this error:
[*] DEBUG: battery_level and link_status response: [{"id":1,"status":"invalid"},{"id":2,"status":"invalid"}]
[*] DEBUG: Error details: {}
[*] DEBUG: door_status response: [{"id":1,"status":"invalid"}]
[*] DEBUG: Error details: {}

From my research, it gets the portal id and door id correctly, and I can run that command in cURL. My issue arises when I get to the status and the response I get is:

{
"error": {
"code": -1,
"message": "JSON parse error"
}
}

So I guess I'm asking if anyone else is having this issue or if it's just my account or something.

Ability to set battery "full" value. System reports battery at 66%, but electrical test shows full (13.3v). It would be nice to be able to recalibrate the reporting so the system reported a more accurate percentage value.

Is this plugin actively updated? I haven't been able to control my doors through homebridge since genie released the new app.

After a couple of days of usage, the Homebridge started complaining about the "homebridge-aladdin-connect-garage-door" plugin slowing down Homebridge.
Here is the warning shows on Homebridge logs:

[18/11/2021, 13:42:13] [homebridge-aladdin-connect-garage-door] This plugin slows down Homebridge. The read handler for the characteristic 'Current Door State' was slow to respond! See https://git.io/JtMGR for more info.

The status shows open or stopped regardless of the actual state and I am unable to open/close the door via Homebridge or my iDevice. The state doesn't change when the door is opened via the AladdinConnect app. The login credentials used are the primary user NOT a secondary user.

"accessories": [
{
"name": "AladdinConnectGarageDoorOpener",
"username": "[primary account email address]",
"password": "[password]",
"status_update_delay": "20",

"device_number": 0,
"garage_number": 1,
"log_polling": true,
"allow_debug": true,
"accessory": "AladdinConnectGarageDoorOpener"
}
],

This plugin no longer works. It cannot open/close the garage door, and doesn't change when I use the aladdin app to do it. But it looks like a whole bunch of auth errors in the logs. (yes, the user/pass is correct.)

First things first: thanks for the plugin! I can finally control 2 different garage door openers from one place.

In the documentation, you have device_number described as door number. It would appear from my setup that that is the number of the configured Genie device (the main unit), not the door. The other, garage_number appears to map to the door (as numbered, in my case, by the labels on the back of the device).

I have a single Genie controller with one door (myQ opener, doesn't actually work with the Genie) connected to Door 1 (on the back of the unit) and another (older Liftmaster, the one I want to control) to Door 3. The configuration that got this to work for me was device_number=0 and garage_number=3.

Thanks again!

When I use hoobs to trigger the garage door to open or close, and watch the status of the garage door in the home app, the transitions don't update properly. What I see:

When opening door:
Closed->Opening->Closed->Open

When closing door:
Open->Closing->Open->Closed

Using:
Aladdin - 1.0.1
Hoobs - 3.3.1

Hi,

Garage door has a false "Open" status, also when you try to send command it won't open or close.

I have one controller and two doors. Both are consistently reporting that the doors are opening and closing when there is actually no activity at all.
