Z-wave driver documentation missing

YannickYannick Member
in Developers
I'm a bit desperate for my z-wave devices (horstmann, yale) not being supported yet and thought I would try to make a basic driver myself but i can't find the documentation. 
Had a look at the Zwave developers page and the ZwaveDriver but they only have examples, no docs.
Am I missing something?

    no real docs aren't available yet, and won't come in short notice (more like a few months into next year)

    just trial and error with the examples of the many apps that there are now, and the documentation from z-wave alliance themselves
  • YannickYannick Member
    is there a z-wave driver template with a basic on/off device that I could modify?
  • casedacaseda Member
    no templates for basic CC

    i did write some documentation for my own reference and stuff:
    https://github.com/caseda/homey_zw-ccl

    it doesn't have all the CC's yet, but has the most common used CC's

    @ Yannick, did you make any progress on building an app yourself? 
  • YannickYannick Member

    Well making zwave drivers is pretty easy, even i can do it. documentation enough arround as well as examples.
    Its not the lack of docu anymore thats at the base of the no progress of the app

    I just got finished writing an app for my Yale YRD110-ZW-619. I forked the Athom Danalock app. First and likely only Homey app (I'm not a developer, got it working mainly through trial and error with my lock, and the code is likely of awful quality). It supports lock and unlock remotely, notification of who has entered or left (via the keypad's user ID), notification of manual lock or unlock, and tamper alarms.

    It works well enough for me, feel free to take the code and run with it. You might be able to get it working just by changing the manufacturer/productType/product IDs in the app.json.

    Cool, I'm currently working on the BeNext Tagreader so will absolutely take a look and see if I can re-use some of it :)

    Almost done, I only have to create a proper logo for the device and some last testing. Only I don't have that much time to do the finishing touch at the moment. Hope to get some time next weekend. And then it's still up to the app owner to merge it and submit it to the App Store.
