Installation
============
To install the software, simply add the xAAL directory in your PYTHONPATH. For
example, in a bash terminal: 
 $ export PYTHONPATH=/home/jkx/Projets/SID/xAAL/trunk/

At this time, there is no setup.py, nor pip support (see the TODO list). 


Tests
=====
- Edit the xAAL/config.py to fix CONF_DIR, and SCHEMA_DIR 
- CONF_DIR: default config file path (Be careful, the directory must exist !!)
- SCHEMA_DIR:  path where you store the schemas. 
- Schemas are mainly used for the xAALBrowser at this time. 

- Start the dumper. 
  cd apps/cmdline; python ./dumper.py

- Start devices/spotify; python ./spotify.py

- Send command through xAAL to spotify 
  cd apps/cmdline; python send.py e58d7d24-3db3-11e4-97b3-3c77e618c6f7 stop

- Now you can try the web interface : 
  - Install cherrypy if needed (apt-get install python-cherrypy3)
  - Start the web-server : cd apps/xAALBrowser; python xAALBrowserIHM.py 
  - Browse http://localhost:8080/devices

TODO
==== 
- Add a setup.py / pip support .. 
- Fix the ifdown / ifup error. Right now, on an ifdown the xAAL API raise 
  an socket.error.
- Fix WiiBalance Bluetooth connection.
- Fix in xAALBrowser: 
	* Default methods forms/buttons to add parameters inputs like dimmer for instance.
	* Avoid reload the entire page /devices 
- Fix Spotify schema

WARNING
======= 
- The API send a "attributesChange" each time a attribute change. This
  doesn't follow exactly the xAAL specs.
