MHGUI(1)

πŸ’– MHGUI(1) β€” the manual, but make it cute πŸ’–

okay bestie, welcome to the mhgui page of the manual. yes the header says MHGUI(1) up top and honestly? iconic. let's get into it. πŸŽ€


✨ NAME ✨

mhgui β€” a GUI to access the myharmony.com web service πŸ¦‹


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

mhgui [OPTIONS]

πŸ’… DESCRIPTION πŸ’…

so. mhgui is built to reach into the web service hiding behind the myharmony.com website. why do we care? because it lets you program Logitech Harmony remote controls that are only supported through that website β€” the ones that normally force you into Microsoft Silverlight (😭 the way that software haunts us). mhgui said "not me, not today" and gave you a way in. periodt. πŸ’œ


πŸ”₯ OPTIONS πŸ”₯

  • --use-local-wsdl β€” so normally, mhgui goes and downloads its WSDL files from Sourceforge. this option says "no babe, stay home" and forces mhgui to use WSDL files straight from the local filesystem instead. super useful if, like, Sourceforge is down for some reason and you're not about to wait around. πŸ™ˆ
  • --suds-debug β€” turn this on and mhgui will log debug info about everything it's saying to the web service. it's giving troubleshooting main character energy β€” the devs might literally ask you for these logs if something's acting up. keep them handy. πŸ‘‘

😭 REPORTING BUGS 😭

found a bug? spill the tea to <concordance-devel@lists.sourceforge.net>.

also fyi: mhgui utilizes libconcord. and until mhgui grows its own sourceforge project, it piggy-backs off the concordance/libconcord mailing list. we're borrowing the group chat, respectfully. 🌈
