Type temp cannot show negative temperatures about homebridge-openhab2-complete

Which accessory are you using? Certain HomeKit Types do not support negative values.

I am on vacation, so I do not have the code available. But I am quite sure I used type 'temp' in homebridge.

I have connected the very same Item in openHAB to both Homebridge and Homekit native integration, so it is easy to see the difference in behaviour on my iPhone.

I can see that other have had problems with this as well. It seems that the Homebridge server uses default values (min=0, max=100) and according to @KhaosT the application should override these with the values needed. Read here for more info include small code examples of how to set a custom minimum and maximum temperature.

I suggest the minimum in openHAB Complete to be -100 and maximum to +200. Both are in Celcius, and the reason for the high maximum number is because I have sensors on my solar panels and they can easily exceed 100 degree Celcius.

Thanks.

I just implemented a potential fix for this (wasn't able to test it locally since I am currently traveling). Feel free to test the latest commit (b10ac33) on this.

Note: The Configuration syntax for 'temp' changed slightly.
