New Device::WebIO release

2018-03-27

Device::WebIO was originally based on a Python project, WebIOPi. It duplicated the REST API (with some slight corrections), which means it was built around the pull-style system of HTTP.

I wanted to expand it to MQTT, which means doing more push-style. It’s not a difficult addition, but it does need to be able to track input pins using async interrupts.

So version 0.020 is released, with the Device::WebIO::Device::DigitalInputAnyEvent. This sets up the basics of putting an async loop together with the hardware portion. Next step is to integrate this into Device::WebIO::RaspberryPi, and then write Device::WebIO::MQTT to take advantage of all this.
