Support for non-HD lights

[mcclown]

As far as I can tell, this should work for non-HD lights as well, with some reasonably minor changes. My guess would be the following.

• Create a BaseDevice class, with shared functionality
• Modify HDDevice class to inherit from BaseDevice
• Add Device class, inheriting from BaseDevice and add anything that is specific to non-HD devices.

If anyone has non-HD devices and is interested in helping, this work could be completed with some teamwork, as long as one person is a developer.

I've managed to do a bit of research on this, the API appears to be different for the AI Director device, so this issue may be a bit more involved.

I'd like to get involved. I have 3 Hydra 52s NON HD that I just got and id really like to be able to control them without the controller if the controller ever breaks in the future. If you point me in the right direction I can definitely assist.

I ended up getting a non-HD Hydra 26, when someone sold me the wrong light, when one of my other light broke. I've had a quick look at it but haven't managed to reverse-engineer the API yet. I'll have to find some time to take a deeper look.

Thank you for the offer of help.

I will accept pull requests if you have time to work out some of it yourself

The API paths are:

/api/devices
/api/tanks

From there you can use the device_id & tank_id.

Examples:

$ curl http://10.0.0.108/api/devices/
{
    "response_status": true,
    "response_code": 0,
    "response_desc": "Success.",
    "response": [
        {
            "device_id": 123456789,
            "device_type": "hydra",
            "model": "",
            "device_name": "AI Wireless Device",
            "group_id": 1,
            "position": 0
        }
    ]
}
$ curl http://10.0.0.108/api/devices/123456789/version ^C

$ curl http://10.0.0.108/api/devices/123456789/info ^C

Ditto for /api/tanks
