I just made a plugin for Wordpress to open your light
You can set your Access token , Core id and Also API Url to send reqeust your core. Also sparcore-wp plugin have Widget this means you can use easy at sidebar.
The gauge will use a servo with a needle (pointer) attached to indicate the number of hits in the last 24 hours. The plan was to use WP-CRON and a plugin to call the Spark API, which will update a variable thus making the gauge indicator go up!
I’m thinking I can reuse a lot of your code here to make that plugin, so it all integrates into WP nicely.
