Multiple Nests on 1 account #1

First of all, awesome! Thank you. I tried your script and I have 2 Nests on my account. Your commands only communicate with the first Nest it sees on the account. Can you add a parameter for the "name"?

Hello Ryan,

I just pushed an update to github that should have support for multiple nests. I’ve provided two ways to do it. One is to use the “–index” argument. For example, “–index 1″ to use the second nest.

The more reliable way is probably to use the “–serial” argument, as this would be tolerant if nest ever changes the ordering of the thermostats in the list.

Both options are untested, as I only have one nest.

Many Thanks - Code works great - tried it with two Nests. My Python skills are rusty. I am hoping to figure out a way to encrypt the Username/Password so that if I were to run this on something like AWS - my account info is NOT in the bash (command) history of the shell!
