API Calls

This is an article from the Animatronic WorkBench Documentation

The AWB client provides an HTTP API that makes it possible to control various functions of the AWB and retrieve information about the status of the project.

To do this, the client provides a Wi-Fi network to which other devices can connect. These devices can then send HTTP requests to the client to obtain information or perform actions. For details on the Wi-Fi connection, see Wi-Fi Connection.

Playing Timelines

To play a timeline, an HTTP GET request can be sent to the URL 'http://192.168.1.1/remote/play/?timeline='. Where '' is the name of the timeline to be played.

The name of the timeline must be URL-encoded, i.e. spaces are replaced by '+' and special characters are encoded accordingly.

For example, to play the timeline "Wink", the following URL can be called:

'http://192.168.1.1/remote/play/?timeline=Wink'

If the request provides a response with a status code of 200, the timeline on the client has started successfully.
