Configurable baseTopic

Hi Marvin,
Great job with Homie ESP8266, it's really amazing.

I have seen that in node red, the configuration node has the base topic hardcoded as "devices/" ( this.baseTopic = 'devices/' + this.deviceId; in line 24).
I am asking if it is possible create a new configurable field to modify this property, so the default value in set up configuration (http://setup.homie-esp8266.marvinroger.fr) is "homie/". Or at least change default base topic in node red to be the same at in set up configuration page.

Thanks in advance,
MAnel

The Homie Send node does not work

The Send node does not change the property of the node at all.
Looking at the source it seems it does not append "/set" to the topic:

https://github.com/marvinroger/node-red-contrib-homie/blob/master/nodes/deviceconfig/deviceconfig.js#L30

The only work-around is to append "/set" after the property name in the Property field. For example if the property is "on" you should put "on/set":

Any example flow please ?

Hello,
Can you please provide any sample flow for your node-red app ?
