Software Developer Support
Extending HomeSeer to Support Other Hardware and Software If you are a developer, installer, or hardware manufacturer HomeSeer can support your product. With HomeSeer’s plugin architecture and our script and plugin SDKs, you can easily develop your own plugin to support your hardware or software. You can also contract us to develop the plugin for you.
Selling Your Application If you would like to re-sell your plugin or script, we can handle that also. Your application can be sold through our online store. This program works as follows:
- Your application will be promoted in our online store.
- We will generate a product ID for you so users can purchase your application.
- You will have a free forum on our message board to discuss and support your application.
- Your application will be included in the HomeSeer Updater so users have easy access to it.
- For more information, check out our 3rd party development & distribution policy and contact us directly.
If you are creating a licensed plugin, then the product has to have a unique product ID string (for plugins, this is what is returned from the Name function). You must also provide information to HomeSeer and agree to the terms set forth by HST to use the HST store, licensing system, and for maintenance of the licenses and license information. Please visit this web page for all of the latest information and requirements.
Information on distributing an application you have written using HomeSeer’s Updater can be found in the updater section of the SDK documentation.
