juham.shelly

Description

Classes for Shelly(TM) IoT product family.

These classes implement the interface between Shelly IoT devices and the Juham framework. They listen appropriate messages in the juham mqtt netwokr and control their Shelly devices accordingly, as well as listen the sensor data generated by Shellys and publish it in the standard Juham format.
