My matter accessory define an endpoint of type light, with a custom cluster.
if I connect my accessory using Home app, I'm I supposed to find HMService/HMCharacteristic corresponding to my custom matter cluster?
Is there any requirement on the custom cluster to have it visible in HomeKit ?
Thanks.
I have this question too. I have used the debugger and print() to examine what I get from the HomeKit APIs for a Matter device and I'm not convinced I am getting custom clusters. It would be very useful to know if this is possible and if so how to make it work.
If not, it sounds like I would need to commission the device using the Matter Framework rather than HomeKit with my own certificates and if I do that it isn't clear that the device would appear in the Home app. If that were the case I suppose the user could commission the device twice but that would be a terrible user experience.
Thanks in advance for any assistance offered!
I posted a separate question about this and got a answer that was helpful to me, perhaps it will help you too? https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/757458
