Seam Now Available on Mac Homebrew

Changelog image for Seam Now Available on Mac Homebrew

Mac lovers, this week, we’re excited to announce that you can now brew install the Seam CLI on your Mac! Simply run brew install seam to get started. Special thanks to all of you who upvoted our GitHub project to help us secure the Seam name with Homebrew.

If you're not familiar with the Seam CLI, you can give it a spin in your browser first. It’s a great way to explore and test the Seam API.

Shell
1brew tap seamapi/homebrew-seam
2brew install seam

You can also install the Seam CLI using npm install -g seam-cli.

2024.09.27 Changelog

New

  • Thermostats API refinement: Last week, we announced our powerful and flexible new thermostats API. We appreciate your ideas and suggestions, and we are continuing to refine this API based on your feedback. For more details, see last week’s changelog or contact Seam.

Changed

  • August-Yale device name changes: When you change the name of an August or Yale (North America) lock using the Yale Access app, Seam now reflects this update right away instead of waiting for the next full device refresh.
  • More SmartThings sandbox device accounts: We added more sandbox device accounts for SmartThings.
  • Improved Igloohome Bridge access code performance: We introduced automatic job throttling with Igloohome access code creation to avoid job limits and timeouts on Igloohome Bridges.

Fixes

  • August/Yale capability detection: We improved the sync process to report device capabilities more accurately for August and Yale devices that are initially missing a bridge.
  • Igloohome access code creation: We expanded access code programming support for additional Igloohome device models.
