Notice ❗

Please note this repository has moved to imdea-control-python.

• The problem is Mechanize gem, because only works on Ruby 2.0.0. So, we decided to create another script in python.

imdea-controls

A script to control the room blinds, temperature, lights and door at the IMDEA Software Institute.

Dependencies

You do not worry about this, only run 'install.sh' script.

• Ruby 2.0.0 ONLY.
• Gems:
  • Mechanize gem.
    • This gem needed Nokogiri gem.
  • Rake gem for testing.
• An account and office at the IMDEA Software Institute.

Installation

1. Clone the project.

$ git clone https://github.com/svg153/imdea-controls

1. Change to the folder.

$ cd imdea-controls

1. Give execute permission to install.sh.

$ chmod +x install.sh

1. Run install script. This will create an alias in ~/.aliases to run the script in any location, so there are two install ways. ONLY RUN ONE OF THEM:

• 1º way - Normal: The blinds.rb alias will be "blinds".

$ ./install.sh

• 2º way - Custom: Give the alias by argument.

$ ./install.sh -a'aliasForTheScriptBlinds'

1. Create the configuration file, .blinds.yml from template.

$ cp .blinds.yml.template .blinds.yml

1. Edit the .blinds.yml with your IMDEA Software information.

username: USERNAME
password: PASSWORD
room_no: ROOM

1. By default, install.sh saw you the help. But to see the help, type this.

$ ./blinds.rb -h

Configuration file

username: USERNAME
password: PASSWORD
room_no: ROOM
