Created on 24 Sep 2019  路  3Comments  路  Source: Koenkk/zigbee2mqtt

This is just a quick question i couldn't find it on the docs (did read, extensively)

Does friendly_name support paths i.e
can i call my hue lights

friendly_name: Hue/Lights/Kitchen/Roof
friendly_name: Hue/Lights/Kitchen/Lamp
friendly_name: Hue/Lights/Bedroom/Roof
friendly_name: Hue/Lights/Hallway/Roof

and device like

friendly_name: Hue/Dimmers/Bedroom
friendly_name: Hue/Dimmers/Kitchen
friendly_name: Hue/Dimmers/Lounge
friendly_name: Sensors/Temp/Kitchen

I just tried this and it seemingly works fine, i will leave the ticket open as it would be great to have official confirmation before i deploy 50 device in this format, and for others to know int he future 馃槃

It's not supported yet by Zigbee2MqttAssistant.. https://github.com/yllibed/Zigbee2MqttAssistant/issues/26

But I think I'll fix it soon if it's officially supported by Zigbee2Mqtt.
