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.

import asyncio
from pprint import pprint

import aiohttp
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.run(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:

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.
