Python API for talking to Veracontrollers

Project description

PyVera

A simple Python library to control devices via the Vera controller (http://getvera.com/).

Based on https://github.com/jamespcole/home-assistant-vera-api

Additions to support subscriptions and some additional devices

How to use

>>> import pyvera

>>> controller = pyvera.VeraController("http://192.168.1.161:3480/")
>>> devices = controller.get_devices('On/Off Switch')
>>> devices
[VeraSwitch (id=15 category=On/Off Switch name=Bookcase Uplighters), VeraSwitch (id=16 category=On/Off Switch name=Bookcase device)]

>>> devices[1]
VeraSwitch (id=15 category=On/Off Switch name=Bookcase Uplighters)

>>> devices[1].is_switched_on()
False

>>> devices[1].switch_on()
>>> devices[1].is_switched_on()
True

>>> devices[1].switch_off()

Examples

There is some example code (that can also help with tracing and debugging) in the examples directory.

This will list your vera devices

$ ./examples/list-devices.py -u http://192.168.1.161:3480

This will show you events on a particular device (get the id from the example above)

$ ./examples/device-listener.py -u http://192.168.1.161:3480/  -i 26

If you have locks - this will show you information about them.

$ ./examples/show-lock-info.py -u http://192.168.1.161:3480/

Debugging

You may use the PYVERA_LOGLEVEL environment variable to output more verbose messages to the console. For instance, to show all debug level messages using the list-devices implementation in the example directory, run something similar to:

$ PYVERA_LOGLEVEL=DEBUG ./examples/list-devices.py -u http://192.168.1.161:3480

Debugging inside home assistant

If you're running pyvera inside home assistant and need the debugging log traces, add the following to your configuration.yaml

logger:
    logs:
        pyvera: debug

Developing

Setup and builds are fully automated. You can run build pipeline locally by running.

# Setup, build, lint and test the code.
./scripts/build.sh

License

The initial code was initially was written by James Cole and released under the BSD license. The rest is released under the MIT license.
