Toying with This Week (Dec 27 - Jan 2)
Added 2020-12-27 13:55:48 +0000 UTCThis past week I did some work on Teases support but it'll still be a while. I also added some API support which was a fairly simple bit of work for me but should lead to some cool things from other developers in the future.
This week I'm primarily working on adding positional support for The Handy. Their 3.0 firmware isn't out yet to control the position directly so I'm just adding the ability to select a positional pattern and upload it to the device. You won't be able to adjust anything while the pattern is running or be able to draw a pattern or anything. I might make it so you can rewind the pattern though.
I'll also probably make it so funscript positional patterns can be directly imported to make it as easy as possible to load up positional patterns. It's of course still not super useful for The Handy folks until it's also syncing with video. But hopefully that won't be too much longer.
Webhooks
Scripts can now have a webhook connection which allows you to communicate with the script via an API.
You set up a trigger in your script to listen for a certain action sent via the webhook and then can trigger any action in XToys as usual. You can also pass in any trigger variables like you can with other triggers.
So like in the example below you can call the temporary-on action and pass in values for what intensity to set the toy to and for how long.
It's using the Firebase Realtime Database which isn't the most cost effective way of doing things so I'll have to see what sort of limits I need to set on things. And I'm still debating on how best to also pass data back out of XToys via an API.
