Looking for ways to extend Indigo to support additional hardware or new functionality? Want to integrate your home automation with other software (iTunes, iCal, Security Spy, etc.)? Need to see some example Indigo AppleScripts to help you get started?

Below are some great user contributions for integrating Indigo home automation with different devices and software. Additionally, some of these are excellent tutorials-by-example, so fire up your Script Editor application (inside your Applications/AppleScript/ folder) or other editor and see how they work. If you write a script, application, or plug-in that might be useful for others, then please submit it.

Disclaimer: Perceptive Automation, LLC. does not guarantee the usefulness, quality, or safety of any scripts on this page. We have personally used quite a few of these scripts, but be careful and use common sense when installing and using any software or scripts.

Cynical Network    
Indigo 5.x-6 more info
Overview 

An Indigo 5 plugin that allows Indigo to connect to, and receive connections from, TCP services on the Internet (which includes your own computer :-). Make connections, send text on them, add event triggers to respond to incoming text using regular expressions, and generally make TCP your, uh, friend.

Note that a fair lot of network serial port adapters simply tell you to connect to a network port on the device. This will do the job.

Installation 

Download the zip file. Double-click it to expand. Double-click the resulting plugin to install.

Usage 

Select the About Cynical Network menu item for usage instructions. Post in Perry The Cynic's third party developer forum for questions, comments, and complaints.
