Sensor

This “sensor” plugin allows you to create and manage various types of sensors that can measure and track various environmental parameters such as temperature, humidity, light intensity, and other physical quantities.

Creating an abstract device based on the “sensor” plugin simplifies the process of integrating different sensors into a smart home system. It provides a unified interface for working with different types of sensors, making it easy to retrieve data from them, set their state, and configure their operation parameters.

Thanks to the flexibility and versatility of the “sensor” plugin, it is suitable for most use cases where working with sensors and obtaining data about the environment’s state is required.

The “sensor” plugin also implements a JavaScript handler called entityAction. This handler is designed to handle actions related to “entity” type devices based on the “sensor” plugin.

Example implementation of the entityAction handler:

entityAction = (entityId, actionName, args) => {
  // Action handling code
};

In this example, the entityAction handler takes two parameters: entityId, representing the identifier of the “entity” type device, and actionName, representing the name of the action to be performed.

The entityAction handler allows you to perform the necessary logic in response to actions related to “entity” type devices. Inside the handler, you can access functions and methods of the “sensor” plugin to perform specific operations, update the devices' state, or interact with other components of the smart home system.

Example usage of the entityAction handler:

EntityCallAction('sensor.sensor123', 'turnOn');

In this example, the entityAction handler is called with the device identifier “sensor123” and the action name “turnOn”. Inside the handler, you can define the logic associated with executing the required action for the specified device.
