Lock with access control?

[patrickharris]

Does anyone have an example of a lock working with linked services like access control? I think doing things like setting pin codes and assigning them to people is possible in homekit, but I haven't been able to get this working in NRCHKB, just a single lock.

@marcus-j-davies how similar would this be to your Ring keypad?

[marcus-j-davies]

I think my ring keypad is setup quite differently (as it's only seen as an alarm accessory)

I manage codes outside of HK, and create them in NR directly (to be used physically)

As for Access Control, HAP NodeJS, does not yet have full support.

I Created a half working example, but it was terribly glitchy, and was not stable enough IMO, as you have to manage TLVs yourself until HAP NodeJS provides better support.

Ahh, okay - I'm not missing out on anything yet then!

[marcus-j-davies]

Your not!

There is no native support for it yet!

Below is a proof of concept however, from which I was able to test it - but again, you are better of waiting until it's been made easier to implement by hap node js

Having to read/write the TLVs is horrible!
