Hi;



I am playing with housebot and I like it so far. I have used Scottbot's

HB_Control.exe to exectute tasks etc. I see according to the docs

there is a built in ability to use tcp/ip to control housebot. I don't see

a lot of docs on it.

Can a tcp connection be used to create devices, properties, or tasks without

having initially set them up in housebot gui? I have m yown GUI and want

to use housebot functionality but not it's native GUI so i can hide it's complexity.

Can anyone share some example code? kinda new to the windows side of programming so not too sure how to proceed. Any help appreciated.

Unfortunately no. The idea of having a remote configuration has been around for a while, but currently the config and running logic are all tied together.
