Question about source of API documentation & bluelab files

[NDJ-1701]

Hello SpikedCola, can you let me know where you found information about connecting to the bluelab device? I would like to work on my own UI using their API but your repo is the only thing I've found. Thank!

Hi @NDJ-1701,

All the information in the repo came from reverse-engineering BlueLab's "OpenBluelab" Java software. This was done in order to connect a piece of our BlueLab equipment with MQTT. Initially BlueLab showed some interest in doing this, but eventually ceased all communications. I was forced to approach the problem a different way.

I do not have access to any BlueLab hardware at the moment to continue working on opening their API. But I would be happy to point you in the right direction if you have any further questions!

@SpikedCola I am very much interested in any further info you have available. If you are interested I'd like to commission you to build out a basic Home Assistant integration from this. My commission would just be for you to build it. The code can remain open source and attributed to you if you'd like.
