Python Plugin framework question

[emme]

I'm in the process of evaluating my first plugin about BLE and beacons (let's say... this is my actual area of interest )

I've donloaded the documentation from the Wiki, but I'm unclear about how devices are created:
when I define a new device can this be listed ONLY in the device tab instead of having it availabe in the switches tab? like it happend for any other hardware like zwave or rf433?

my intention is to add all devices discovered, but it does not mean I want to add them all to the device I will use.....


thanks

@emme,

Interesting. I hadn't thought of that.

I think what you are asking for is the ability to create devices that are marked as 'Unused'. Users would need to go into the devices tab and mark them as used for them to show up in the tabs.

You can't at the moment but I could add it in the next day or so.

Exactely! but in your way is much more understandable

if it is something that needs to be developped... maight I suggest to take under conideration the state of "add new hardware" switch in settings?

@emme,

I will look at it. Some other people have asked for some of the settings to be available to plugins as well,maybe now is the time...
