Usage

see samples

Read/Write IR-Data

IRKit has a HTTP-API that can be used from within the same LAN.

require 'irkit'

## find IRKit with Bonjour
irkit = IRKit::Device.find.first

## or, specify with IP-Address
irkit = IRKit::Device.new(address: '192.168.0.123')

unless irkit
  STDERR.puts 'device not found'
  exit 1
end

ir_data = irkit.get_messages
unless ir_data
  STDERR.puts 'IR data not found'
  exit 1
end

p ir_data

puts 'rewrite IR data'
irkit.post_messages ir_data

Internet-API

To access IRKit from outside of the LAN, use Internet-API. It uses api.getirkit.com as a proxy.

Get clientkey and deviceid

irkit = IRKit::Device.find.first

unless irkit
  STDERR.puts 'device not found'
  exit 1
end

token = irkit.get_token
puts "token: #{token}"
res = irkit.get_key_and_deviceid(token)

puts "clientkey:#{res.clientkey}"
puts "deviceid:#{res.deviceid}"

Read/Write with Internet-API

irkit = IRKit::InternetAPI.new(clientkey: "your-clientkey", deviceid: "your-deviceid")

unless irkit
  STDERR.puts 'device not found'
  exit 1
end

p irkit

unless ir_data = irkit.get_messages
  STDERR.puts 'IR data not found'
  exit 1
end

p ir_data.message

puts 'rewrite IR data'
irkit.post_messages ir_data.message
