Hi @denisgabriel5

I noticed we already have an existing verified plugin https://github.com/rooi/homebridge-intercom-automation-hat, I'm asking this purely since both this one and yours have intercom in the name, are they similar functionality or am I wrong here?

Hi @bwp91

The plugin you mentioned is based only on Raspberry Pi. While my plugin currently supports only Shelly Uni based intercoms, I've put in the effort to allow it to add intercoms based on other devices as well.

Hi @denisgabriel5

with a minimal config of:

        {
            "name": "Intercom",
            "manufacturer": "Default-Manufacturer",
            "model": "Default-Model",
            "serialNumber": "Default-Serial",

            "intercomType": "shellyUni",
            "shellyUniStatusUrl": "ksajdklasjdks",
            "shellyUniStatusJsonPath": "saljdklas",
            "shellyUniButtonsOrder": "open-talk",
            "shellyUniButtonsTimeout": 1,
            "shellyUniRingSuppressionTimeout": 0,
            "_bridge": {
                "username": "0E:C9:32:1E:39:47",

            },
            "platform": "Intercom Plugin"
        }

I receive the following crash loop:

[22/09/2024, 15:00:28] [Intercom] Child bridge ended (code 1, signal null). The child bridge ended unexpectedly, which is normally due to the plugin not catching its errors properly. Please report this to the plugin developer by clicking on the 'Report An Issue' option in the plugin menu dropdown from the Homebridge UI. If there are related logs shown above, please include them in your report.
[22/09/2024, 15:00:28] [Intercom] Child bridge will automatically restart in 30 seconds (restart attempt 3 of 4).

Please update the plugin to ensure that the configuration is valid - in this case I assume the error is showing because this is not a valid URL in my config - shellyUniStatusUrl - but this could be checked and caught and an error log used instead of crashing the plugin.
