Provide a base, self contained Electron User Space App that:\n    * Provides a fully self-contained app to run in user space with no elevated privileges.\n    * Manages an overall user connection to the API back end (rest based)\n    * Allows the user to see and monitor Wemo, Homekit and other devices on the local network\n    * Allows to \"connect\" (pair) devices selectively to (and remove them from) the currently active Allow2 account\n    * May allow some other basic functions in future\n2. Provide a separate capability to detect (and authenticate against?) a separate elevated daemon service that runs\non system boot.\n3. Includes the ability to automatically install the elevated daemon service where the relevant App Store\nallows the binary to provide that capability.\n4. Includes a reference to how to download and install the separate daemon installer for those App Stores that\ndo not permit the background process to be included in the installer (Yes Apple, I am looking at you!).\n\nThe base operation is intended to show a \"Network Wide\" view of all detected automation devices, and provide the ability to\nlink/authenticate with them directly, with bridges and otherwise, and de-duplicate any that may come through separate channels\n(ie: direct wemo connections and the same device via a homekit bridge).\n\n# Screenshots\n\n![Allow2Automate on OSX](/ScreenShots/Screen%20Shot%204.png?raw=true \"Allow2Automate on OSX\")\n\n# Development notes\n\nThe following provides more detail on the structure and intent of the application and components.\n\n## Installation\n\nThis is a standard electron app, to get started simply clone the repo and run npm install.\n\n```sh\ngit clone https://github.com/Allow2/Allow2Automate.git\ncd Allow2Automate\nnpm install\n```\n\nTo run in dev mode (launch the user space app with hot-loader):\n\n```sh\nnpm run develop\n```\n\n## Deployment\n\nTo build for all platforms:\n\n```sh\nnpm run pack\n```\n\nor for a specific platform:\n\n## Mac App Store\n\n```sh\nnpm run pack:mac\n```\n\n```sh\n./sign.sh\n```\n\nThen upload with *Application Loader*\n\n## Windows App Store\n\nNOTE: cannot currently build on Mac without using a Paid pro version of Parallel.\nSo need to do that, or build on a VM\n\n```sh\nnpm run pack:win\n```\n\nThen drag into https://developer.microsoft.com/\n\n## Linux Snap\n\n```sh\nnpm run pack:linux\n```\n\n```sh\nsnapcraft push dist/Allow2Automate_1.1.0_amd64.snap\n```\n\n# Notes\n\nFor installation of the daemon helper:\n[https://www.npmjs.com/package/electron-sudo](https://www.npmjs.com/package/electron-sudo)\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fallow2%2Fallow2automate","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fallow2%2Fallow2automate","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fallow2%2Fallow2automate/lists"}
