VControl

vcontrold client to connect to a running vcontrold service. The client can read data from the service by sending a get command or write data by sending a set command. The available commands can be obtained when connecting with telnet to the vcontrold service and send commands.

Details on how to set up the hard- and software to get a vcontrold server running can be found in the OpenV-Wiki.

Installation

Install with npm

npm install --save vcontrol

Example

const VControl = require("vcontrol")

vControlC = new VControl({
  host: "localhost",
  port: 3002
  debug: true   // optional
})

await vControl.connect()

let data = await vControl.getData("getTempA")
await vControl.setData("setTimerZirkuMo", ["07:00", "09:00"])

await vControl.close()

I experienced that vcontrold blocks command execution if there are multiple open connections. It might be a good practice to close the connection when the command finished.
