Expose Zones as Switches to HomeKit

[sunchaser360]

Unfortunately Apple HomeKit is not able to schedule the sprinkler system or single zones.
Please include an option to present the zones as switches, so they can be scheduled per automation in HomeKit.

Thanks and keep up the good progress!

Plugin is great but only for manual control. It would be great to use zones in automations eg. Using fake switch - if fs is off irrigation will not start. I would love this

Well at least we can schedule through the regular app for now.
But can we give Siri command to manually turn on Zone 1 or Zone 2? I tried a few assumed commands without success.
Currently, the only way I see to turn on Zone 1 or Zone 2 is to long-press the ESP-ME3 button in Home, and you'll then see Zone 1 and Zone 2 on off sliders. Is that all we can do? I guess it's ok when you're testing the system etc. Amazon skill allows you to ask to water a specific zone for xx minutes though. Can someone help confirm what's possible with homekit on this?
