Obtaining Credentials

In order to use this plugin you will need to obtain a client id and client secret from Flair.

Follow the instructions here.

Specifically you need to:

1. Create a Flair account with a developer email address at my.flair.co.
2. Provide this email address to [e-mail] and they will send you a set of developer credentials.

You will use the client id and secret they send you in the config block above.

Auto Vs Manual Mode

When you use Pucks with your setup the pucks will appear in the app as a Thermostat. If you turn those thermostats off it will put the Flair system into Manual mode. If you turn the thermostat to any other setting it will set your system to Flair's Auto mode.

Vent Accessory Type

You can specify how vent accessories are shown in HomeKit with the ventAccessoryType property.
