Example with 1 IoT API

Overview

The home-iot-api is designed for the EatBacon IoT project, allowing developers to interact with various IoT devices such as lighting and temperature sensors. This API provides endpoints to manage devices, retrieve their states, and control their functionalities, making it essential for building smart home applications.

Why It's Useful

This API enables seamless integration of IoT devices into applications, allowing for real-time monitoring and control. Developers can easily register new devices, retrieve their statuses, and adjust settings, enhancing user experience and automation capabilities in smart homes.

Prerequisites

Resources and Capabilities

ResourceHTTP MethodDescription
/devicesGETReturns all registered devices
/lighting/dimmers/{deviceId}/{value}POSTSets the dimmer to a specific value
/temperatureGETRetrieves the current temperature summary
/zonesGETReturns all zones in the system

Authentication

This API does not require authentication for accessing the endpoints. However, it is recommended to implement security measures in production environments to protect sensitive data and ensure secure communication.

Getting Started

To get started, you can use the following example to retrieve all registered devices:


GET /devices?skip=0&limit=10
    

This request will return a list of devices, allowing you to manage and interact with them as needed.
