NAME
Device::Nest - Methods for wrapping the Nest API calls so that they are accessible via Perl
VERSION
Version 0.03
SYNOPSIS
This module provides a Perl interface to a Nest Thermostat via the following
methods:
- new
- connect
- fetch_Ambient_Temperature
- fetch_Designation
In order to use this module, you will require a Nest thermostat installed in
your home as well. You will also need your ClientID and ClientSecret provided
by Nest when you register as a developper at https://developer.nest.com.
You will aos need an access code which can be obtained at
https://home.nest.com/login/oauth2?client_id=CLIENT_ID&state=FOO
Your authorization code will be obtained and stored in this module when you
call it.
The module is written entirely in Perl and has been developped on Raspbian Linux.SAMPLE CODE
use Device::Nest;
$my_Nest = Device::Nest->new($ClientID,$ClientSecret,$code,$phrase);
$my_Nest->connect();
undef $my_Nest;
You need to get an authorization code by going to https://home.nest.com/login/oauth2?client_id=CLIENT_ID&state=FOO
and specifying your client ID in the URL along with a random string for state
Use this code, along with your ClientID and ClientSecret to get an authorization code
by using the 'connect' function below.
From now on, all you need is your auth_tokenEXPORT
All by default.SUBROUTINES/METHODS
new - the constructor for a Nest object
Creates a new instance which will be able to fetch data from a unique Nest
sensor.
my $Nest = Device::Nest->new($ClientID,$ClientSecret,$phrase);
This method accepts the following parameters:
- $ClientID : Client ID for the account - Required
- $ClientSecret : Secret key for the account - Required
- $auth_token : authentication token to access the account - Required
Returns a Nest object if successful.
Returns 0 on failurefetch_Auth_Token - generates and displays the auth_token
This function will display the authenticaton token for the PIN code
provided. This can only be done once per PIN code. Pleas make sure
to note and store your auth code since it will be the only thing requiired
for all other API calls.
