Google Home local API

[Phuket2]

I just seen a interesting article today about accessing your google home on your local network. Here is a the link to the docs which in turn has a link to a git hub repo.
I did some tests using requests, for the most part it worked. I dont think its too exciting, but at least interesting.

Just thought I would point it out

My simple testing was as below.

import requests

# I have Xed out my device IP Address. You can get the IP of the google home device you want
# to talk to using the google home app, select the device, then settings. The IP address 
# is at the bottom
_url_base = "http://XXX.XXX.XX.X:8008/"
_url = _url_base + "setup/configured_networks"
resp = requests.request('GET',_url)
print(resp.status_code)
print(resp.json())
