bashio::addon.option cannot set boolean

[llamafilm]

Problem/Motivation

My addon has a boolean config option that starts as true, and after a successful initialization, my shell script sets it to false, to prevent re-initialization on the next launch. This isn't working because bashio adds quotation marks to everything.

Expected behavior

I run this code:

bashio::addon.option regenerate_auth False

After that, I expect the toggle switch in the GUI to show off, but it's still on:

The API shows the value was set to "false" with quotes but it should not have quotes.

curl -s -H "Authorization: Bearer $SUPERVISOR_TOKEN"  \
  http://supervisor/addons/self/info | jq .data.options.regenerate_auth
"false"

I found a workaround:

options=$(bashio::addon.options)
new_options=$(echo $options | jq .regenerate_auth=true)
payload=$(bashio::var.json options "^${new_options}")
bashio::api.supervisor POST "/addons/self/options" "${payload}"
curl -sH "Authorization: Bearer $SUPERVISOR_TOKEN" http://supervisor/addons/self/info | jq .data.options

Did you try bashio::addon.option 'regenerate_auth' '^false' ?
