Usage

To start using the controller, the following items need to be done:

		NestSession theSession = null;

		try {
			theSession = new NestSession(username, password);
		} catch (LoginException e) {
			System.out.println("Caught Login Exception, exiting....");
			System.exit(1);
		}

		Nest theNest = new Nest(theSession);

		Set<String> homeNames = theNest.getHomeNames(); /* list of home structures  i.e. MyHouse */
		Home aHome = aHome = theNest.getHome(homeNameFromSet);

		aHome.setAway(Boolean.FALSE); /* either TRUE or FALSE "/

		Set<String> thermoNames = theNest.getThermostatNames(); /* list of thermostats in all structure */
		Thermostat thermo1 = thermo1 = theNest.getThermostat(thermoNameFromSet);

		Float targetTemp = new Float(25.2790765); /* always a float and in celsius */
		thermo1.setTargetTemperature(targetTemp);

		String targetType = "range"; /* heat, cool, range or off */
		thermo1.setTargetType(targetType);

		String fanmode = "auto"; /* on or auto */
		thermo1.setFanMode(fanmode);
