pbauto-nodejs-http

This project is part of the Pandoras Box SDK. It implements an interface to access the Pandoras Box Automation.

Requirements

node.js
Pandora's Box Manager with web server enabled

Installation

npm install pbauto-nodejs-http

Usage

Create a new PBAuto instance by passing in IP and Port of the Pandoras Box Web Server Service.

var PBAuto = require('pbauto-nodejs-http');

var connection = new PBAuto("2.0.0.1", 6214);

You can then proceed to use all api functions. You can provide an optional callback to retrieve the response values.

connection.getSelectedDeviceCount( function(response){
	// response.http holds the HTTP status code
	// response.code holds the Automation Command code
	// both are considered for the convenience value response.ok
	if(response.ok) // check if request was successful
	{
		// response values are automatically parsed and put on the response object
		console.log(response);
	}
});

Response (Raw JSON)

{
	http: 200,
	ok: true,
	code: 81,
	selectedDevicesCount: 2
}

Versioning

The version consists of a major, a minor and a revision field. (major.minor.revision) If the major version changes, then these changes are incompatible with prior versions. Changes to the minor version indicate backwards compatibility. The revision field is reserved for the Pandoras Box revision that is required to use all features. It might be possible to use the SDK with an older revision of Pandoras Box, but not all the commands will work.
