I know it's been a while...
I finally had a chance to get back into things a little more. Last night I ripped out the code for my server and started over with it. I went with an asynchronous method instead on this version of it and it can also handle up to 30,000 clients - of course, I haven't tested with that many yet, and I likely won't ever, but hey, at least it's an option :)
I made some excellent progress. I have the client talking to the server and am able to see a list of all my zWave devices as well as turn them on/off. I'm on a 1x network with my cell phone, so the response time isn't as fast as I'd like - it varies from 1-3 seconds. The speed feels about the same as my normal zwave controller at least...
As far as future updates, here's what I've got planned:
- View a specific device and allow the level to be set (instead of just toggled on/off)
- Auto-update the client when a switch's level event is fired
- Change the server so it'll optionally only show Switches (instead of sensors, outlets, etc.)
- Pretty it up with icons
- Show useless details such as how long the light's been on, etc.
All in all, things are going well.
