Support for 3rd party Vera plugins ?
-
Can confirm that Vera Reactor has Harmony support. You’re able to start/end activities and send device commands too

Switchboard and VirtualSensor come along for free because I used standard devices for those plugins. Sonos I had already written the mappings for, because I use Sonos around my house, so I at least grabbed what I know I can get right. I'm thrilled to hear that RfxTrx works.
I just did mappings for color lights, which were incomplete (attributes but no actions yet), and I just did both attributes and actions for a generic thermostat. Unfortunately, I can't easily test thermostat, because my own thermostat plugins don't use Vera's standard thermostat devices (they're horribly broken and hard to write a functional plugin/virtual on top of). So I'm curious how that will pan out. All that will be in tonight's 21054.
@toggledbits Great!

Don't sweat it. Let me take a look and give a mapping a try. Just keep in mind, I don't have the device, so I'm flying totally blind--I can build, but I can't test. I rely on your hands and eyes for that.

Sounds promising if it already works in Reactor plugin for Vera.
In addition I'd need to be able to also tell which Harmony Activity is currently active? Or if the Power Off activity is active etc.

The AltHue plugin works fine as well as RfxTrx plugin and, of course, your own Switchboard, Virtual Sensor, Sonos. I have not installed, yet, the Harmony plugin so I can not test it now, although I have a Harmony in the TV-room.

In MSR or in the Reactor plugin for Vera?
-
@matohl Is it ?
I can't see how to run a Hue Scene or start the ColorLoop off the Hue Bridge.
There doesn't appear to be any Actions implemented yet against the AltHue device.

As @rigpapa said, he needs to map them.
Since we're at it, I think both my VeraAlexa and VeraTelegram plug-ins are good candidate as a native MSR plug-in, since they could be written as node.js/bash script. Virtual HTTP Devices plug-in is using standard services, so we should be good.

And that’s ok if you want to send text only, but images/videos could be complex, since you need to send a file as well.
