Esp-homekit-devices: 0.8.5 Dummy switch

[kalety]

Hi Jose!, I've updated one of my switches to 0.8.5 version. At Eve's app appears the dummy switch option, but no idea how to manage it, not appears at Home app. Can you explain in more detail how works it?.

Thanks in advance!

I am busy now, but give me a chance to write documentation about it in Wiki.

Great dummy!
I’d personally use it with Garage door _(instead of extra dummy from HomeBridge)_ to overcome the need of unlocking iPhone before “someone arrives” automation or saying “Open garage door”.

However I still willing to see Inching relay saving it’s logical state (1st click on, 2nd off), for example in such a dummy.

UPD: Oh, wait. I can do it now! By:

• using Dummy as regular switch
• relay in inching mode
• two automations to trigger inch when Dummy switched both On and Off

Question: May I still get external button to toggle dummy/logical state?(
