Hive Binding v0.4.0

Changes

• Added EUI64 property to zigbee things.
• Added autoboost related channels (auto_boost-duration and auto_boost-temperature-target) to thermostat heating zones.
• Added debugging channels to Hive Account things (last_poll_timestamp and dump_nodes)

Known Issues

• easy-mode-operating for hot water will report SCHEDULE instead of OFF

Upgrade notes

• Please remove and re-add your things to get access to the new channels.

Hive Binding v0.3.0

Changes

• Make "transient-remaining" channel report 0 if transient override (boost) is cancelled.
• Add hardware info properties to relevant things (firmware version, modelId etc.)
• Create "easy-..." channels that allow you to control heating zones/hot water more like the Hive app.
• Mark channels that can be replaced by "easy-..." channels as "advanced" (hidden by default).

Upgrade notes

• Please remove and re-add your things to get access to the new channels.
• Change any hive:hot_water:xxx:yyy:is_on channels to hive:hot_water:xxx:yyy:easy-state-is_on in your .items files.
• You probably want to switch to using "easy-mode-operating" etc. channels instead of directly using "mode-operating" etc.

Hive Binding v0.2.0

Changes

• Fix ThingUIDs of discovered things
• Add channels for battery devices: battery-state, battery-voltage, battery-notification_state
• Null pointer exceptions should not be thrown if you update the binding but not your things.

Upgrade notes

Please remove and re-add your things to get access to the new channels.

The ThingUID fix will break any existing links when you remove and re-add things because channel UIDs will change to match. You will have to fix these manually.

e.g. the Channel UID:
hive:node:deadbeef-dead-beef-dead-beefdeadbeef:temperature-target
will change to
hive:heating:cafebabe:deadbeef-dead-beef-dead-beefdeadbeef:temperature-target

Hopefully this sort of thing will not have to happen in future updates.
