IOTDB / Home☆Star Controller for SmartThings

This Module allows you to control your SmartThings devices from IOTDB and Home☆Star. Note that this inherently is complicated. You'll have to add a new app to SmartThings. If you're not comfortable with programming-like things, please ask for help from someone who is.

Installation

Install Home☆Star first.

Then:

$ homestar install homestar-smartthings
$ homestar configure homestar-smartthings

Quick Start

Home☆Star

If you have correctly setup and configured your SmartThings app, all you need do is:

$ homestar runner browser=1

You may have to refresh the page, as it may take a little while for your Things to be discovered.

IOTDB

Turn a SmartThings switch off

$ homestar configure homestar-smartthings
$ node
>>> iotdb = require('iotdb')
>>> things = iotdb.connect("SmartThingsSwitch")
>>> things.set(":on", false)

There are many more samples available. Look for the files called iotdb_*.js.
