Hacking your Home with Ruby
summary
Demos show a working hack stack: Raspberry Pi running Debian, GPIO LEDs and a relay clicking mains on pins 18 23 24 25, controlled from Ruby using pi_piper and wiringpi gems and the Nest API gem. A small library called whip cream deploys a Sinatra server to each Pi and serves buttons that successfully toggle hardware from an iPhone. Notes include Siri proxy breakage on iOS 7, no security or remote access out of the box, and mDNS discovery as a planned improvement.
