Description
In recent Homie work, I have a property whose value is an integer "index", a client would use that value as an index into "something"
So, I wonder if adding the unit index
or i
might be warranted?
Somewhat related, there are property values that are "identifiers" or IDs.
In all cases, these IDs are (or can/could be) strings.
In some cases, these IDs may reference an entity outside the Homie-domain, but in other cases, the ID
may be a Homie-ID, eg, a device-ID
, a node-ID
, or even anther property-ID
I am wondering if there is any interest in representing IDs as such, either as a new datatype(s), or something (it strikes me that an ID is not a unit of measure, so unit not the right thing)
In the spirit of intended humor and attempted friendly collegiality: I note that ATM I am 0 for 2 with regard to ideas for new units, so I am not "holding my breath" anticipating any agreement here! :-)
