Bug: After the latest update to v1.1.0 this plug took down my whole Homebridge service about homebridge-switchbot HOT 9 CLOSED

Update fixed the issues. Thanks!

from homebridge-switchbot.

I also had my homebridge server crash when I upgraded to v1.1.0, but I'm not sure that they are causally linked, since I downgraded back through the versions to v 1.0.0 and was still unable to restore functionality.

At first I was getting the same TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'deviceType') error as @ydogandjiev, but after opening the settings for the switchbot plugin and then restarting that error went away and my whole homebridge server isn't crash looping anymore.

Now it is not loading the switchbot devices properly. Logs say that it is loading them from cache after it fails to load them due to missing Device Type:

I see the devices, but the temp/humidity sensors are returning 0 for all values (including battery level), and I can't control any of the switches.

@ydogandjiev Your hide_device section is no longer needed, remove it and remove and re-add

@lgranger i need to see your config.

@donavanbecker, thanks for the quick reply but this didn't work. I removed the SwitchBot plugin completely (including the config) and re-installed it just adding my token in the config. Now at least Homebridge starts up but none of my SwitchBot devices show up. I see this error in the logs:

[11/17/2021, 10:54:32 PM] [SwitchBot] Initializing SwitchBot platform...
[11/17/2021, 10:54:32 PM] [SwitchBot] "The devices config section is missing the \"Device Type\" in the config, Check Your Conifg."

Seems like this latest version still has some serious bugs in it. I am rolling back to v1.0.2 to get myself unblocked. Will not be upgrading again until this issue is resolved.

Hmm, rolling back to v1.0.2 didn't fix the issue this time around. :( I had to delete the two SwitchBots from my account that appeared to be causing the issue. Thankfully I am not using them at the moment. Hopefully whatever caused this regression gets resolved soon.

@ydogandjiev, can you try Beta:

I'm having the same issue, also after installing 1.1.1b8. Log shows:

[18/11/2021, 14:30:39] [SwitchBot] The devices config section is missing the *Device ID* in the config, Check Your Conifg.
[18/11/2021, 14:30:39] [SwitchBot] The devices config section is missing the *Device Type* in the config, Check Your Conifg.
[18/11/2021, 14:30:39] [SwitchBot] You must set your Bot to Press or Switch Mode

I've removed the switchbot (only keeping curtains and airco control), removed the plugin & reinstalled but still get the above error in 1.1.1b8. Reverting to 1.1.0 gives this error:

[18/11/2021, 14:48:15] [SwitchBot] "The devices config section is missing the \"Device Type\" in the config, Check Your Conifg."

The 'Devices' tab in the switchbot plug settings says 'No Devices'.
and this is the config section:

{
            "name": "SwitchBot",
            "credentials": {
                "openToken": "XXXXXXXXXX",
                "notice": "Keep your token a secret!"
            },
            "options": {
                "devices": [
                    {
                        "bot": {
                            "deviceType": "outlet"
                        }
                    }
                ],
                "debug": "device"
            },
            "platform": "SwitchBot"
        }

When I remove the "bot": section from the config and restart I finally get access to my curtains again.

Here's my config:

        {
            "name": "SwitchBot",
            "credentials": {
                "openToken": "<Token>",
                "notice": "Keep your token a secret!"
            },
            "platform": "SwitchBot"
        }

Here's also a gist with the switchbot portion of the home bridge logs: https://gist.github.com/lgranger/4a3f33bb3f694fd2150f34466fd9d06b

I've also tried the current beta and it's still not working. I've had to disable the plugin.
