How flexible is it going to be?

Automate:

--- Quote from: johpe on November 06, 2013, 08:37:25 am ---I would then like to use an 'offboard' API towards the Almond+s Z-Wave and ZigBee networks. I suppose the Almond+ web interface will have some kind of higher level JSON interface towards the devices to be able to set and read the different nodes? That's where I'd like to be able to hook in, would that be possible as well?

I'm looking for the same type of interface but don't want to use a cloud service.  I don't want the interface between my other in home automation systems and the Almond+ to stop working if my internet connection goes down.  I also don't want the extra latency of sending info/commands to the cloud and back.  Just a simple Ethernet socket connection would be great maybe using JSON.

LGNilsson:
It's really hard for us to say if something like this will work or not, but I can't see any technical reasons as to why it shouldn't. It might take a good bit of tinkering on your side, but I'd suggest asking around in the OpenWRT forums first, as if it can be done in their platform, it can be done with the Almond+. As for adding bits to NutsOS for controlling things, that's a different matter and it would require our SDK from what I understand. The SDK will be available after launch to everyone that are interested in tinkering with their Almond+.
