Get the internal IP address of your Hue bridge

Description

This function uses the bridge UPNP service to get the internal IP address of your hue hub. You need to be on the same network, else you'll get an error. This is not the only method to get the bridge's ip address, but is probably the easiest. This function has no parameters/inputs.

Usage

get_hue_ip()

Create a place to store API keys

Description

This function will look for a 'keychain' file with your keys at the place you tell it to look with the file parameter. If it doesn't find it, it will make one.

Usage

save_private_keys(api_var = NULL, key = NULL,
  name_of_outputted_object = "api_keys", file = "~/r_keychain.rds")

Arguments

Details

This function WILL NOT actually save the file. Instead, it will return a dataframe with the keys, and give you the code to save the file to your system.

The intended use is store API keys in the home space.

Intended use

Save variables in a way that can automatically get read in by my other functions in this package. For the hue lights the variables I expect to see in api_var are "hue_ip" and "hue_username", while for pushover, the variables I expect to see are "pushover_userkey" and "pushover_apitoken".

See the example for a use example.

Bugs

## Not run: api_keys <- save_private_keys("new_key","THE KEY")
