Remote API support #125

Closed jonesg504 closed 5 years ago

jonesg504 commented 5 years ago

Is there support to authenticate with the remote api?

peter-murray commented 5 years ago

Not in the existing v2 API, but I am looking to add this in in the v3 version that I am currently working on.

andertun commented 5 years ago

@peter-murray do you have an eta for v3? 😊

peter-murray commented 5 years ago

I have been bogged down on dealing with the migration of schedules code from v2 over to v3, am trying to get that completed so that I can provide a drop in shim for the v2 transition to v3.

There are also some quirks that I need to do around the convenience functions for the lights (like setting rgb colors).

Then I need to deal with documentation, so will be about 2 to 3 weeks (maybe a little longer depending on work obligations).

I could cut a alpha release sooner, but not sure if anyone would be interested in that or find it useful.

peter-murray commented 5 years ago

There is an alpha release 3.0.0-alpha.2 in the npm registry as of now, this will be released as the next major version once I complete the documentation. All the API functionality is practically locked down now for

I am currently also working through the necessary pieces to fully support the remote API

andertun commented 5 years ago

Cool - I look forward to check it out 😊

I am also very interested in Remote API support

peter-murray commented 5 years ago

I have just started to look into the necessary changes to support this (as the v3 initial work is done), in theory it is not going to be too difficult, but I need to set up a test application so that I can get the necessary tokens from the remote API so I can develop against it.

I would expect to see something in the next couple of weeks around this.

glaliberte commented 5 years ago

The Remote API is very very close to the local API: the calls are all the same with different URL structure and an authorization header in the request.

Cool to hear that you are working on this.

peter-murray commented 5 years ago

This is now available in the 3.1.0 release of the library. Consult the documentation or the examples on how to configure the remote bindings.
