Easy may be subjective depending on your skill set but you could definitely make this using a single board pc like the rasp pi or equivalents.

  1. Wire up an IR blaster to the device. You could build it yourself or I’m sure there must be something premade you can purchase.

  2. Set up a web server with any scripting language that accepts http and can access the command line (so basically all of them but I would personally use PHP)

  3. When you POST to localhost /abcd have that script call a command line program that fires off commands on the IR device.

Depending on what you are communicating with you could also potentially drop IR and communicate directly with a hard wire.
