CWS: Part 4

This post is going to be the last one covering CWS (for now). We’ve created an API that lets us view the current system settings, now we just need a way to update them. In this part, I’ll go over how to take in and apply new settings.

CWS: Part 3

In this part, we’ll build out a system configuration page that uses CWS to make changing system settings easier.

CWS: Part 2

In this part, I’m going to look at adding route handlers to our CWS server. I’ll continue adding to the program we wrote in CWS: Part 1, so grab those files from GitHub if you’d like to follow along.

CWS: Part 1

One thing that always seems to come up during the C# labs at Masters is Crestron Web Scripting (CWS). I never think about adding this to my own projects, but it is a good way to provide some level of advanced configuration (or even remote control) of the running program. I’m watching the Intermediate C# videos this morning and see that the first lab dives right into using CWS. So in the spirit of Masters, let me try to incorporate some of their teachings into my day-to-day programming.

I’m hoping in this series of posts to build out a CWS program that can:

Work on 3-series and 4-series processors
Configure a room system
Provide a REST API for external control

Let’s begin!
