WeMo control
============
The plan:
---------
1. Use Fauxmo to create a virtual switch 'Movie Lights' recognized on the
2019-07-24 15:48:46 +00:00
NAS at port 20000 on a MacVLAN IP address in the IP range 224-240
2. Fauxmo will run in a docker file and be able to talk to another container,
2019-07-21 00:35:25 +00:00
which runs our golang executable. Other container host will be movielights
(added via add-host option)
3. Our golang executable will then talk to the actual wemo switches
TODO:
-----
Figure out how to discover the IP addresses. Options are:
* Do a discovery at startup
* ~~Do a discovery before an event~~ I don't like this one due to latency
* Do a discovery after an event
* Do a discovery on a time basis
Discovery is currently via a node module. Would prefer to use go here
