homebridge-winpc

Homebridge module for the windows PC (using WOL and Airytec Switch Off)

Description

This plugin is basically a modification of homebridge-http. Main difference is:

  • Ability to poll every 5 min a WindowsPC
  • Ability to sent a WakeOnLan request
  • Ability to sent on OFF command to a WindowsPC (provided Airytec Switch Off is running in service mode and active)
  • If no answer is received, the power state is set to false
  • If any answer is received, the power state is set to true
