Arduino Thing Description - pushButton

Mozilla IoT
#1

I’m having trouble describing a pushButton in Arduino.
My code is
const char* deviceTypes2[] = {“PushButton”, nullptr};
ThingDevice kitchenMain(“kitchenMain”, “Kitchen Main Lights”, deviceTypes2);
ThingProperty on2(“on”, “Pushed”, BOOLEAN, “PushedProperty”);

The pushButton thing is showing up but there is no ability to push the button or toggel on/off.

The PushButton type is for a push button sensor. For your use case an OnOffSwitch with an OnOffProperty would fit better and allow you to turn it on and off from the gateway UI.
