Big thanks for @Areson for his help/motivation in rewriting this. Another shout out to @nh.schotfam for your help on the optimizations for hubitat.
I also wanted to mention the following projects I referenced for inspiration for a few minor items and fixes:
- See CHANGELOG
- See CHANGELOG
- Device/location events are almost real-time.
- This option allows the hub to send updates directly to your homebridge-hubitat-tonesto7 installation.
- The hub must be able to send an http packet to your device so make sure to allow incoming traffic on the applicable port.
- The port used for this can be configured by the
direct_portsetting and defaults to8000. - The program will attempt to determine your IP address automatically, but that can be overridden by
direct_ipwhich is useful if you have multiple addresses. - The plugin and hubitat will continue to function when you lose internet (with the exception of controlling any cloud based devices).
When properly setup, you should see something like this in your Homebridge startup immediately after the PIN:

Installation comes in two parts:
- Install Hubitat Package Manager
- Search for Homebridge v2 under the Package Manager
- Open the Hubitat UI in your web browser
- Click on
Apps Codein left navigation panel - Click
New Appon the top right of page - Click the
Importbutton:- Paste in this URL:

Select
Homebridge v2from the choices on the list. -
Configuring the App:
In
Define Device Typesthere are 8 inputs that can be used to force a device to be discovered as a specific type in HomeKit. NOTE: Do not select the same device in more that one input. If you select a device here, do not select that same device in the other device inputs on the previous page.For any other devices you would like to add that weren't added in the previous step, just tap on the input next to an appropriate device group and then select each device you would like to use. (The same devices can be selected in any of the Sensor, Switch, Other inputs)
- There are several categories here because of the way Hubitat assigns capabilities. You might not see your device in one, but might in another.
- Almost all devices contain the Refresh capability and are under the "Other Devices" group.
- Some sensors don't have a refresh and are under the "Sensor Devices" group.
- Some devices, mainly Virtual Switches, only have the Switch Capability and are in the "Switch Devices" group.
If you select the same device in multiple categories, it will only be shown once in HomeKit. You can safely check them all in all groups, aside from the NOTICE above.

DoneYou are finished with the App configuration!
NOTICE: I highly recommend using homebridge-config-ui-x to manage your homebridge instance, plugin and configs. This will allow you to use the web based form to configure this plugin.
- Install homebridge using:
npm i -g homebridge(For Homebridge Install: Homebridge Instructions) - Install Hubitat plugin using:
npm i -g homebridge-hubitat-tonesto7 - Update your configuration file using the config generator inside the Hubitat App as the template to copy/paste into platform section of the Homebridge config.json.

platform&nameRequiredThis information is used by homebridge to identify the plugin and should be the settings above.

View Configuration Data for Homebridge -
use_cloudRequired | Default:falseThis will enable the plugin to communicate with the hubitat app via the cloud url. (Mostly useful for troubleshooting local communication issues via ports)
-
communityUserNameOptional | Default: ''Only needed when you are having issues with the plugin and you want me to be able to identify your reported exception errors.
-
direct_ipOptional | Default: 'First available IP on your computer'Most installations won't need this, but if for any reason it can't identify your ip address correctly, use this setting to force the IP presented to Hubitat for the hub to send to.
-
direct_portOptional | Default:8000This is the port that the
homebridge-hubitat-tonesto7plugin will listen on for traffic from your hub. Make sure your firewall allows incoming traffic on this port from your Hubitat hub IP address to your HomeBridge instance. -
temperature_unitOptional | Default:FThis will allow you to define the temp unit to use. This can also be set in the HUbitat App
-
validateTokenIdOptional | Default:falseThis forces the plugin to validate the Hubitat app token and location with that defined in the plugin configuration
-
adaptive_lightingOptional | Default:trueThis enables support for bulbs with Color Temp and Brightness to use HomeKit's new Adaptive Lighting features.
-
adaptive_lighting_offsetOptional | Default:0Defines a custom temperature adjustment factor. This can be used to define a linear deviation from the HomeKit Controller defined ColorTemperature schedule. For example supplying a value of -10 will reduce the ColorTemperature, which is calculated from the transition schedule, by 10 mired for every change.
-
consider_fan_by_nameOptional | Default:trueBy default the plugin will identify a fan device by using a devices label, and whether it has Fan in the label.
-
consider_light_by_nameOptional | Default:falseBy default the plugin will identify a light device by using a devices label, and whether it has Light in the label.
-
excluded_capabilitiesOptional | Default: '{}' (None)NOTICE: The Hubitat app offers many inputs to help filter out device capabilities. Only use this if the available inputs don't meet your needs. Specify the Hubitat device by ID and the associated capabilities you want the plugin to ignore. This prevents a Hubitat device creating unwanted or redundant HomeKit accessories.
-
logConfigOptionalDefine log output format options as well as enable the log file output.
-
debugOptional | Default:falseEnables Debug log output.
-
showChangesOptional | Default:true
Logs device event changes received from Hubitat.
-
Q: Can this support Axis Blinds? A: Maybe, it can support any device that has the windowShade capability and/or level attributes.
