API description

[c-graeser]

The device is controllable from it's own Web interface.
I like to control it i.e. by a smart home system. I like to chose the built in fuctions and to control the brightness by aother machine.

Is there any description how to do this by http get requests or other API like MQTT JSON...?

The following (Python) Code should do the API thing:
