homebridge-Savant

Savant platform for homebridge. This cannot run stand-alone!

This Work In Progress, use carefully.

Please also visit homebridge github homepage first.

Latest to homebridge-savant changes can be found in the CHANGELOG.TXT

This can only be used with the new homebridge >=0.2.0 and Node >=4.0.0

Installation and running

• Install homebridge first, see there; nfarina recommends a global install as super user. It's a server tool, so we can safely assume that the person that installes it is sufficiently priviledged to do so. sudo npm install -g homebridge
• then install this package to <any> directory you want; If you installed homebridge globally I recommend to do so with homebridge-savant: sudo npm install -g homebridge-savant
• configure homebridge and its plugins. You might start by copying the sample-config.json to a new folder .homebridge in your user folder and rename it to config.json
• when done, start homebridge with homebridge. If you have chosen a local install, go to the homebridge folder and do a bin/homebridge --plugin-path <any>/homebridge-savant with the path to the homebridge-savant installation.

Configuration

The configuration of the homebridge-savant plugin is done in the global config.json of homebridge. If you did not pass the -U parameter to homebridge, the directory for the config.json is /home//.homebridge

Syntax of the config.json

You need to configure all devices directly in the config.json.
