REST endpoint JSON {"status": true} not working as of 1.9.0 rc6 and above

[coehn1]

Hi,

I use diyHue to control my MiLights through the Hue app.

diyHue sends comands to the REST /gateways endpoint.

To toggle the lights on/off diyHue uses:
{"status": true} and {"status": false}

As of 1.9.0 rc6 this doesn't work anymore. The false/off stae works but the true/on doesn't work anymore. I've tried these firmware version:
1.8.8 -> workst
1.9.0 rc4 -> workst
1.9.0 rc5 -> workst
1.9.0 rc6 -> doesn't work
1.9.0 rc7 -> doesn't work
1.9.0 rc8 -> doesn't work
1.9.0 rc8 -> doesn't work
1.9.0 -> doesn't work
1.9.1 -> doesn't work

Could you please check this.

That was the ArduinoJson v6 upgrade, I think.

Can publish a fix.

There is still an issue with the status command:
On version 1.9.2 (nodemcuv2):

• {"status": true} and {"status": false} are working
• {"status": on} and {"status": off} are not working

{"status":on} and {"status":off} are not valid JSON.

Try {"status":"on"}.

I wrote it wrong on this forum, but in my code it is {"status": "on"} and {"status": "off"} . I apologise.

I did some more investigation: {"status": "off"} is also working in version 1.9.2
But {"status": "on"} is not working in version 1.9.2

I'm not able to reproduce. Works fine for me on 1.9.2 and 1.10.0-dev.7.
