Issues
Publish Thing Description schema and Types in another npm package
https://
Daniel: Cristiano proposes to split TD and API changes
Cristiano: Issue related to WebThings io work I am doing
… versioning scheme is not very clear
Daniel: add historical changes section
Zoltan: managed version?
… version the source
Cristiano: TD does not publish on NPM
Cristiano: I can try to work on the split
… NPM needs to be done by DanieLP
Should writeProperty() return a value
https://
Daniel: interoperability with ECHONET is important here
Kaz: working on ECHONET binding
… might take longer
observeallproperties and unobserveallproperties methods are missing
https://
Cristiano: WebThings can get all events
… in this case binding acts already
… the need is to capture this situation in scripting
… difficult to know whether to re-open connection
Zoltan: can provide convenience API
… subscribe all events / properties
… explain exception
… one can do with one or many requests
… observeAll present and runtime can decide wheteh to use binding or loop
Cristiano: if binding does not support observeAll we can also throw error
… makes clear what the binding supports
Zoltan: we could do both.. having option
… observeAll is like convenience method
… convenience methods easier to maintain
… having option "strict" w.r.t. to TD op's
Cristiano: Wonder whether this is better done in utility library
… we use strict always
… similar to observeProperty .. binding not supporting observing
Zoltan: seems a bit different to me
… strict way by default but can be relaxed
Cristiano: should stick to one rule
… strict to operation
Zoltan: can add interaction-options in the future if there is interest
Daniel: still have binding issue
Zoltan: miss next Monday
