## Installation
|
|
|
|
1. Install homebridge using: `npm install -g homebridge`
|
|
2. Install this plugin using: `npm install -g homebridge-neato`
|
|
3. If you don't have a Neato account yet create one [here](https://www.neatorobotics.com/create-account/).
|
|
4. Update your configuration file. See the sample below.
|
|
|
|
## Configuration
|
|
|
|
Add the following information to your config file. Change the values for email and password.
|
|
|
|
### Simple
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
"platforms": [
|
|
{
|
|
"platform": "NeatoVacuumRobot",
|
|
"email": "YourEmail",
|
|
"password": "YourPassword"
|
|
}
|
|
]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Advanced
|
|
|
|
The following config contains advanced optional settings that are off when not specified.
|
|
|
|
The parameter **refresh** sets in what interval (seconds) changes of the robot state will be pushed to homekit. The minimum refresh time is 60 seconds. You need this only when you set up rules based on the robot state and start him outside of homekit (e.g. with the Neato app).
|
|
|
|
The parameter **extraCareNavigation** sets if supporting models (currently Neato D3 and D5) should take extra care of your furniture while cleaning.
|
|
|
|
The parameter **disabled** accepts a list of switches/sensors that can be disabled in the neato homekit plugin (e.g. dock, dockstate, eco, schedule).
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
"platforms": [
|
|
{
|
|
"platform": "NeatoVacuumRobot",
|
|
"email": "YourEmail",
|
|
"password": "YourPassword",
