node-fauxmo

Make fake WeMo devices! Another Node.JS port of fauxmo, borrowing heavily from fauxmojs. This library gives you the ability to easily control anything you'd like from your Alexa enabled devices. You can control an array of relays from a raspberry pi or even start, stop, and get the status of a service on your computer. I've added the ability to get the status of a "fake device" from an external source. Enjoy!

Installation

npm install node-fauxmo

Usage

This example demonstrates the creation of 4 fake devices. The fourth uses the optional "statusHandler" method allowing the fake device to query other sources for it's status.

'use strict';

const FauxMo = require('node-fauxmo');

var dev4status = 0;

var dev4statushandler = function() {
	return dev4status;
}

var dev4handler = function(action) {
	dev4status = action;
}

let fauxMo = new FauxMo(
{
	devices: [{
		name: 'Fake Device 1',
		port: 11000,
		handler: function(action) {
			console.log('Fake Device 1:', action);
		}
	},
	{
		name: 'Fake Device 2',
		port: 11001,
		handler: function(action) {
			console.log('Fake Device 2:', action);
		}
	},
	{
		name: 'Fake Device 3',
		port: 11002,
		handler: function(action) {
			console.log('Fake Device 3:', action);
		}
	},
	{
		name: 'Fake Device 4',
		port: 11003,
		handler: function(action) {
			console.log('Fake Device 4:', action);
			dev4handler(action);
		},
		statusHandler: function(callback) {
			callback(dev4statushandler());
		}
	}
	]
});
