\ No newline at end of file +Interconnect daemon for OpenSmarts. This is an implementation of the logical hub for OpenSmarts devices. + +Its responsabilities are (in *hub mode*): +- Maintain an internal graph of the network (uuids, keys, and *endpoints*) +- Keep and run all the *automation scripts* as required +- Manage/push new state information to smart home devices as required by users or scripts +- Store/forward state information from smart home devices as requested by users or scripts +- Pair new devices when requested by users + +Its responsabilities are (in *endpoint mode*): +- Present all onboard logical endpoints as iot devices +- Pair and maintain keys with other smart home software +- Forward commands from the paired hub to underlying onboard devices +- Forward new data from underlying onboard devices to other smart home software + +This daemon is meant to run as the underlying logical smart home hub for a given network. +Current focus is on the basic features of device management, automation, and extensability, but +future work will be done on different setup modes to run a "hub device" as a bridge or endpoint +so that it can be managed (and expose its connected devices) to/from other smart home software +such as HomeAssistant or AppleHomeKit. |
