To use the Node.js code example, install the request module (https://www.npmjs.com/package/request).

npm install request

import hashlib
import json
import os
import requests

url = "https://developer-api.nest.com/devices/thermostats/device_id"

token = "YOUR_TOKEN_HERE" # Update with your token

payload = "{\"temperature_scale\": \"F\"}"

headers = {'Authorization': 'Bearer {0}'.format(token), 'Content-Type': 'application/json'}

response = requests.put(url, headers=headers, data=payload, allow_redirects=False)
if response.status_code == 307: # indicates a redirect is needed
    response = requests.put(response.headers['Location'], headers=headers, data=payload, allow_redirects=False)

print(response.text)

import http.client
from urllib.parse import urlparse

token = "YOUR_TOKEN_HERE" # Update with your token

payload = "{\"temperature_scale\": \"F\"}"

url = "/devices/thermostats/device_id"

conn = http.client.HTTPSConnection("developer-api.nest.com")
headers = {'authorization': "Bearer {0}".format(token)}
conn.request("PUT", url, payload, headers)
response = conn.getresponse()

if response.status == 307: # indicates a redirect is needed
    redirectLocation = urlparse(response.getheader("location"))
    conn = http.client.HTTPSConnection(redirectLocation.netloc)
    conn.request("PUT", url, payload, headers)
    response = conn.getresponse()
    if response.status != 200:
        raise Exception("Response failed: ", response.reason)

data = response.read()
print(data.decode("utf-8"))

import java.io.IOException;
import okhttp3.OkHttpClient;
import okhttp3.Request;
import okhttp3.Response;
import okhttp3.MediaType;
import okhttp3.RequestBody;

public class NestWrite {

    public Request makeRequest(String url, String value) {
        MediaType mediaType = MediaType.parse("application/octet-stream");
        RequestBody body = RequestBody.create(mediaType, "{\"temperature_scale\": \"F\"}\"");
        String auth = "Bearer YOUR_TOKEN_HERE"; // Update with your token
        Request request = new Request.Builder()
        .url(url)
        .put(body)
        .addHeader("authorization", auth)
        .build();
        return request;
    }

    public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException
    {
        OkHttpClient client = new OkHttpClient();
        NestWrite postman = new NestWrite();

        String url = "https://developer-api.nest.com/devices/thermostats/device_id";
        String value = "{\"away\": \"home\"}";
        Request request = postman.makeRequest(url, value);
        Response response = client.newCall(request).execute();
        //System.out.println(response.toString());

        // Use the new URL in case of temporary redirect
        if(response.isRedirect()){
            String newUrl = response.header("Location");
            request = postman.makeRequest(newUrl, value);
            response = client.newCall(request).execute();
        }
        System.out.println(response.body().string());
    }
}

To use the Java code example:

1. Download the latest okhttp and okio Jar files at http://square.github.io/okhttp/. Additionally, download the Kotlin stdlib file at https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.jetbrains.kotlin/kotlin-stdlib if your version of okhttp depends on it.

2. Construct your code.

3. Compile and run the program with the following class-path settings.

javac -cp .:okhttp-<ver>.jar:okio-<ver>.jar NestWrite.java

java -cp .:okhttp-<ver>.jar:okio-<ver>.jar:kotlin-stdlib-<ver>.jar NestWrite

javac -cp .:okhttp-3.11.0.jar:okio-2.1.0.jar NestWrite.java

java -cp .:okhttp-3.11.0.jar:okio-2.1.0.jar:kotlin-stdlib-1.3.0.jar NestWrite
