Python module to talk to Philips Hue.

Project description

# Aiohue
## Asynchronous library to control Philips Hue

Requires Python 3.5 and uses asyncio and aiohttp.

```python
import asyncio
from pprint import pprint

from aiohue.discovery import discover_nupnp


async def main():
async with aiohttp.ClientSession() as session:
await run(session)


async def run(websession):
bridges = await discover_nupnp(websession)

bridge = bridges[0]
await bridge.create_user('aiophue-example')
print('Your username is', bridge.username)

await bridge.initialize()

print('Name', bridge.config.name)
print('Mac', bridge.config.mac)

print()
print('Lights:')
for id in bridge.lights:
light = bridge.lights[id]
print('{}: {}'.format(light.name, 'on' if light.state['on'] else 'off'))

# Change state of a light.
await light.set_state(on=not light.state['on'])

print()
print('Groups:')
for id in bridge.groups:
group = bridge.groups[id]
print('{}: {}'.format(group.name, 'on' if group.action['on'] else 'off'))

# Change state of a group.
await group.set_action(on=not group.state['on'])


asyncio.get_event_loop().run_until_complete(main())
```

## Timeouts

Aiohue does not specify any timeouts for any requests. You will need to specify them in your own code. We recommend the `async_timeout` package:

```python
import async_timeout

with async_timeout.timeout(10):
await bridge.initialize()
```

## Contribution guidelines

Object hierarchy and property/method names should match the Philips Hue API.
