Geeks, which app or drivers are being developed?

Is someone also working on a app to send out raw ethernet (UDP/TCP) messages?
I need to readout some PLC's and I know how to setup the message (on ethernet) but don't know if this is possible in Homey

Thank you
So it is possible.
Are there some good (UDP) examples (used in Homey apps) to take a look at?
I am not a very experienced programmer (done some vb.net) but get it to work there by editing examples.
When Homey comes I hope to find time to do some learning in JS
That's great! I really do need more different players and setups to test. Do you have access to the virtual Homey? If so, you could technically install it when you are comfortable with Git and command line (for Athom-cli). Another option is (assuming you do have access to vhomey01) - that I leave it running for a day on which we agree on? You could than play with it and shoot issues into github.
Hay guys,
At the moment I'm hooking up my Calenta heater to an Arduino. With thanks to Robert Hekkers I'm able to read status values and counters from it. Now I'm thinking of the best way to connect Homey to the arduino. I've got a WiFi shield present so I thinks that's the most easy way. But then I'm stuck... What's the best way to put the info into Homey? Is that by setting up a REST API so that Homey can read the values or are there better and easier ways?
We'll release an Arduino library that talks directly to Homey for the nRF905 chips soon
Cool!
So exited for this!
Im cool on the outside but my feelings are like
Lets post my question here as well, don't know where else to put it.
Don't know if it a driver is the answer but here we go:
Is it by default possible for homey to just post a URL like: http://192.168.0.94/zone=01&Lights=1 on your local network? So just a static URL, not that Homey needs to put one together from scratch.
Building a driver will take me too long (will need to learn the language,,) and the nRF905 will probably take too much pins for my mini pro to be a decent option.
I thing it'll be supereasy to write a little app that run custom GET requests on your local network, but as a fallback you can look at the IFTTT maker channel because the app seems ready.
I will make an HTTP app for the flow editor, so you can use that. Probably can have it done while sitting on the toilet ;p
Great thnx.!
Now in can order my pcb's as wel.
Nice to know when I'm using the HTTP app where it was developed! HAHA
Hello developpers,
1-wire is a bus communication system that makes is possible to connect simple low cost I/O to a computer
The OW Server is a network connected host for maximal 24 clients
Weather station equipment, door and window status, light intensity values, (heating) temperatures etc. can be made available in Homey.
Is there somebody that is considering to develop a plug-in for the OW server?
There is open source client software available but I have no idea how to write the appropriate drivers .
The smarter coffee machine and the Ikettle 2.0 are totally different as the Ikettle 1.0
So it not possible to use the 1.0 app. I think. But I have no experience with makeing a app.
I found on GitHub a code maybe someone else can make a app.
