This plugin allows you to control the relays on the 8 channel network relay boards being sold on eBay. This plugin also exposes the 8 on-board input sensors.

and nothing else, it's not working. DUMP
and hit enter. There are a few more features, but that should get you going. Please report any issues on GitHub. It uses the python plugin telnetlib which seems to come standard with macOS.
I use this with 5 irrigation valves to control sprinklers & pool fill, two different garage door openers and a 3-wire 1" ball valve I found on Amazon for around $60. That valve controls my house water. The device has been very solid for many months.
I have not used the input sensors much, although I do leave my update interval at 2 seconds without problems.

This release fixes a number of bugs introduced with the 1.0.0 release.
Also included are four new sprinkler device states: Schedule Running, Unexpected Zone Activates, Last Active Zone and Zone Last Active. The first state is a boolean and goes true when a sprinkler zone is requested to turn on by Indigo. It goes false when all zones are requested off by Indigo. If a zone unexpectedly activates, its name will be placed into the second state mentioned. This happens when something besides a sprinkler schedule triggers a relay on, that is assigned to a sprinkler zone. The last two states store the last zone that was on and (with a margin of error equal to the update interval) the time it turned off.

This releases adds the ability to control the relays as native sprinkler devices. In addition to this new feature, some bug fixes have been put into place to reduce the chance of lost data. In other words, clicking cancel on the device edit window will now revert to the previous state, even if devices were deleted or added.
