lock/unlock: Unlock/lock the TC control interface.

Function Description:

Lock the phone's TC control interface for a certain period of time. The device's control window will automatically unlock after the lockout time has elapsed.
Unlock the TC control interface.

Corresponding JS API:
lock(timeout)
unlock()
Whether to support multiple devices:

Yes

Resource Information:

Method POST
URL .../devices/:device?lock=:lock&timeout=:timeout
Requires authentication? Yes


Method Parameters:

Parameter Type Required Description
device String Yes ID value of the device
lock Boolean Yes If the value is true, it means locking;
If the value is false, it means unlocking
timeout Long Yes Lock time (ms), this parameter is not needed when the value of lock is flase.


Response Parameters:

A JSON string representing an array of objects with the following fields:

Field Type Description
status Boolean Return true for success and null for failure
value String If the value of status is true, an empty string is returned;
If the value of status is a null object, an error message or empty string is returned.


Request Example:
http://localhost:8090/TotalControl/v1/devices/device@1116106541?token=270eq7lXQK8bXYsJ&lock=true&timeout=60000 
Response Example:

If this API executes successfully, it returns:

{
    "status": true,
    "value": ""
}

If the value of HTTP status code is 200, but the value of status is a null object, it returns:

{
    "status": null,
    "value": "<Error message>"
}


Example:

Warm tip:
Get the token needed for Total Control script development,see here.
Get the id value of the master device, see here.

RingoJS Example:
// Import the packages
var {request} = require("ringo/httpclient");
var base64 = require("ringo/base64");

// The username and password are separated by a single : and sent on the wire base64 encoded
var userpass = base64.encode("sigma:3D391497");

// First step: Get the API token
var gettoken = request({
	method: "GET",
	url: "http://localhost:8090/TotalControl/v1/login",
	headers: {
		"Authorization": userpass
	}
});
var ret_token = JSON.parse(gettoken.content); 
var token = ret_token.value.token; 
print("//The value of token is:" + token);

// Second step: Get the device id value of the master device
var getdevice = request({
	method: "GET",
	url: "http://localhost:8090/TotalControl/v1/devices/main?token=" + token
});
var device = JSON.parse(getdevice.content).id; 
print("//The value of device ID is:"+ device);

// Third step: Execute this REST API
var resp = request({
	method: "POST",
	url: "http://localhost:8090/TotalControl/v1/devices/"+ device,
	data: {
		"lock": true,
		"timeout": 60000,
		"token": token,
	}
});
var obj = JSON.parse(resp.content); 
ret =obj.status;
if (ret == true) {
	print("//Executed successfully,Return value: \n"+resp.content);	
} else if (ret != true & resp.status == 200){
	print("An error message is returned: "+resp.content);
} else {
	print("This API failed to execute.");
}
The running result of the RingoJS:

If it executes successfully, it will return:

//The value of token is:QG097nhLzTSn9OZ8
//The value of device ID is:device@230441652
//Executed successfully,Return value: 
{"status":true, "value":""}

The running result of the python:

If it executes successfully, it will return:

Get the token,Return value:  {'status': True, 'value': {'token': 'QG097nhLzTSn9OZ8'}}
The value of token is:  QG097nhLzTSn9OZ8
Get the device id,Return value:  {'id': 'device@230441652'}
The value of device id is:  device@230441652
Executed successfully,Return value:  {'status': True, 'value': ''}
