Allow customising the bridge name

lazyatom opened this issue · comments

It'd be neat to be able to change the name of the device (bridge) that appears when you first try to pair, which is I think defined here. Perhaps it could be given as an argument to RubyHome.run?

Hey @lazyatom that is indeed the correct parameter to change. I’m on holiday at the moment but I can take a look when I return 🙂

Hey @lazyatom thanks for the suggestion I've gone ahead and implemented this #62 along with some other customisations that can be made.

I called the attribute you referred to as "bridge name" discovery_name so you should be able to set it like this:

RubyHome.configure do |c|
  c.discovery_name = 'My House'
end

I will merge and release this tomorrow night under 0.1.22 I just want to do some more testing locally before it's 🚢'ed.

Sounds great - thanks for this!
