First... Thank you sebr for this fantastic work!

Second... Anything I can help with from a user/test perspective, please let me know. Even if its documentation, man pages, etc.

Running the example rest script example_rest_api.py and I do successfully connect and it returns the relevant information. I was wondering if I might ask for another example code file that maybe shows how to do some basic things folks may want to do using this code? (In regards to controlling their device?) Perhaps manually opening/closing valve, setting timers, etc? (If this is even possible?) If you have a way I can donate a few dollars for such a request I would be happy to do so!

How I am attempting to use this code (just for your curiosity). I have a garden raspberry pi 3b+ that acts as a weather station, hose/water relay control, and soon, a water hose turret system to keep the small animals from eating my food if caught by my cameras motion detection. :-) It currently tracks temp/humidity internal to the enclosure, external temp/humidity, solar lux, soil temperature, soil moisture content (in 2 large beds 75sq/ft or 7 sq/meters each), and controls 3 relays that turn on watering to 3 different zones, if a significant amount of rain isn't immediately forecast. Due to their being 7 hoses, a manifold, a relay valve box, etc there are very small leaks from time to time. And to avoid these leaks while the system is not in a watering mode, I have purchases one of the orbit b-hyve smart faucet and wifi relay devices to turn off the water at the source, so the main system can remain unpressurised while not in use. I am attempting to use the rpi to control this device prior to it initiating a watering cycle. Either by BLE or Wifi. Which is where your code would come in extremely handy. :-)

When you have a spare second please let me know if I can help, or donate in any way and if controlling these devices using python is possible.

Regards, and stay safe.

Is this library still functional? Thanks!😊
