Welcome to myServer 6!

myServer 6 is Allonis's future.  All next development will be done in the new platform.

If you are a myServer 5 user, you have a very capable system with lots of features.  myServer 6 is launching with a subset of that capability.  In time, all popular drivers, apps, and functions will be supported in myServer 6.

This article is how one can use BOTH myServer 5 and myServer 6 until all your needed functionality is available and migrated to myServer6.

 

One of the easiest means is to leverage myDesigner 5's Web object.  With that, you can point to the myServer6's webpage to display myServer6 functionality in myServer 5 webpages.

Example:  Within myDesigner 6, there is the new Charting webobjects. You can graph data of your choice.  So, develop a webpage with the charting component in myDesigner 6. Save that page.  Then, in myDesigner 5, create a new scene.  Add the Web Object and configure that to the myServer6's new chart webpage.  Save.  Open the myServer 5 page and navigate to the new page that displays myServer6 chart content.  Near instant satisfaction :)

 

You can also move over select functions.

You can use the myServer 5 user interface and send commands to myServer 6.

For example, you have an elaborate system configured on myServer 5.  You want to use myServer 6's new myRaz Z-Wave driver (not available on V5).

You can have myServer 5 send messages to myServer 6 to execute:

get|http://192.168.n.m:7880/api/docommand?command=SomeV6Command&client=SomeClientName

Command example:

get|http://192.168.1.217:7880/api/docommand?command=Lighting|10~on&client=v5

Note that you must always launch myServer 5 before launching myServer 6 if on same Windows PC.
