Note: In order to use this app, you'll need to use the Google API Console to register your SHA1 token along with the package name, this app won't work otherwise.
WatchTower is a simple application which was created to test and explore the functionality of the new Proximity Beacon API. The application can be used to try out:
- Registering Beacons
- Updating Beacons
- Viewing Beacons
- Viewing Beacon Diagnostics
- Viewing Beacon Attachments
- Adding Beacon Attachments
- Deleting Single Beacon Attachments
- Deleting Batch Beacon Attachments by Type
Some features are not very practical within a mobile-app (for example, adding json data to attachments), so these have not been included.
Note: This was built quickly to simply test the APIs functionality. If you come across any bugs please feel free to submit them as an issue, or open a pull request ;)
