Major frameworks used

Install

Via pip

pip install xbox-smartglass-core

See the end of this README for development-targeted instructions.

How to use

There are several command line utilities to check out::

xbox-cli

Some functionality, such as GameDVR record, requires authentication with your Microsoft Account to validate you have the right to trigger such action.

To authenticate / get authentication tokens use::

xbox-authenticate

REST server

Start the server daemon

Usage information

Example localhost:

# Serve on '127.0.0.1:5557'
$ xbox-rest-server
INFO:     Started server process [927195]
INFO:     Waiting for application startup.
INFO:     Application startup complete.
INFO:     Uvicorn running on http://127.0.0.1:5557 (Press CTRL+C to quit)

Example local network:

192.168.0.100 is the IP address of your computer running the server:

xbox-rest-server --host 192.168.0.100 -p 1234
INFO:     Started server process [927195]
INFO:     Waiting for application startup.
INFO:     Application startup complete.
INFO:     Uvicorn running on http://192.168.0.100:1234 (Press CTRL+C to quit)

REST API

Since the migration from Flask framework to FastAPI, there is a nice OpenAPI documentation available:

http://{IPAddress}:{port}/docs

Authentication

If your server runs on something else than 127.0.0.1:5557 or 127.0.0.1:8080 you need to register your own OAUTH application on Azure AD and supply appropriate parameters to the login-endpoint of the REST server.
