Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Homebridge Global Caché iTach IR

Introduction

This Homebridge plugin supports sending IR commands via Global Caché iTach IR products:

  • WF2IR
  • IP2IR
  • IP2IR-P

Documentation

This plugin is based on the Homebridge Broadlink RM Pro plugin so start with its documentation.

Important differences:

  • No automatic discovery. You must manually provide the hostname or IP address of your iTach device.

  • No IR learning.

  • No MQTT.

  • No ping/arp support.

  • Only the following accessory types are supported:

    • switch
    • outlet
    • light
  • Instead of a hosts array, add a single host: <hostname or ip address> at the top of the platform config. This is the default host that any accessories that don't have the own host: <hostname or ip address> will use.

  • The "data" strings must adhere to the iTach API sendir syntax, less the sendir, prefix. e.g.

    {
        "name": "Accessory Name",
        "type": "switch",
        "data": {
            "on": "1:1,0,38000,1,1,129,65,16,...",
            "off": "1:1,1,38000,1,1,129,65,16,...",
        }
    }

    i.e. <connectoraddress>,<ID>,<frequency>,<repeat>,<offset>,<on1>, <off1>,<on2>,<off2>,....,<onN>,<offN>

    • <connectoraddress>: 1:1, 1:2, or 1:3 to send the command via IR port 1, 2, or 3.
    • <ID>: a value between 0-65535.

    Hint: Sign up for Global Caché's Control Tower and have the codes e-mailed to you. It's a huge database and this is easier than learning all the codes.

Thanks

This plugin is based on https://github.com/kiwi-cam/homebridge-broadlink-rm. I removed most of its accessory types and adapted the remaining code to work with the Global Caché iTach protocol.
