A Python library to communicate with Ring Door Bell (https://ring.com/)
Project description
Looking for maintainers
Python Ring Door Bell is a library written for Python 3.6+ that exposes the Ring.com devices as Python objects.
Currently Ring.com does not provide an official API. The results of this project are merely from reverse engineering.
Documentation: http://python-ring-doorbell.readthedocs.io/
Installation
# Installing from PyPi
$ pip install ring_doorbell
# Installing latest development
$ pip install \
git+https://github.com/tchellomello/python-ring-doorbell@master
Initializing your Ring object
import json
import getpass
from pathlib import Path
from pprint import pprint
from ring_doorbell import Ring, Auth
from oauthlib.oauth2 import MissingTokenError
cache_file = Path("test_token.cache")
def token_updated(token):
cache_file.write_text(json.dumps(token))
def otp_callback():
auth_code = input("2FA code: ")
return auth_code
def main():
if cache_file.is_file():
auth = Auth("MyProject/1.0", json.loads(cache_file.read_text()), token_updated)
else:
username = input("Username: ")
password = getpass.getpass("Password: ")
auth = Auth("MyProject/1.0", None, token_updated)
try:
auth.fetch_token(username, password)
except MissingTokenError:
auth.fetch_token(username, password, otp_callback())
ring = Ring(auth)
ring.update_data()
devices = ring.devices()
pprint(devices)
if __name__ == "__main__":
main()
Listing devices linked to your account
# All devices
devices = ring.devices()
{'chimes': [<RingChime: Downstairs>],
'doorbots': [<RingDoorBell: Front Door>]}
# All doorbells
doorbells = devices['doorbots']
[<RingDoorBell: Front Door>]
# All chimes
chimes = devices['chimes']
[<RingChime: Downstairs>]
# All stickup cams
stickup_cams = devices['stickup_cams']
[<RingStickUpCam: Driveway>]
Playing with the attributes and functions
devices = ring.devices()
for dev in list(devices['stickup_cams'] + devices['chimes'] + devices['doorbots']):
dev.update_health_data()
print('Address: %s' % dev.address)
print('Family: %s' % dev.family)
print('ID: %s' % dev.id)
print('Name: %s' % dev.name)
print('Timezone: %s' % dev.timezone)
print('Wifi Name: %s' % dev.wifi_name)
print('Wifi RSSI: %s' % dev.wifi_signal_strength)
# setting dev volume
print('Volume: %s' % dev.volume)
dev.volume = 5
print('Volume: %s' % dev.volume)
# play dev test shound
if dev.family == 'chimes':
dev.test_sound(kind = 'ding')
dev.test_sound(kind = 'motion')
# turn on lights on floodlight cam
if dev.family == 'stickup_cams' and dev.lights:
dev.lights = 'on'
Showing door bell events
devices = ring.devices()
for doorbell in devices['doorbots']:
# listing the last 15 events of any kind
for event in doorbell.history(limit=15):
print('ID: %s' % event['id'])
print('Kind: %s' % event['kind'])
print('Answered: %s' % event['answered'])
print('When: %s' % event['created_at'])
print('--' * 50)
# get a event list only the triggered by motion
events = doorbell.history(kind='motion')
Downloading the last video triggered by ding
devices = ring.devices()
doorbell = devices['doorbots'][0]
doorbell.recording_download(
doorbell.history(limit=100, kind='ding')[0]['id'],
filename='last_ding.mp4',
override=True)
Displaying the last video capture URL
print(doorbell.recording_url(doorbell.last_recording_id))
'https://ring-transcoded-videos.s3.amazonaws.com/99999999.mp4?X-Amz-Expires=3600&X-Amz-Date=20170313T232537Z&X-Amz-Algorithm=AWS4-HMAC-SHA256&X-Amz-Credential=TOKEN_SECRET/us-east-1/s3/aws4_request&X-Amz-SignedHeaders=host&X-Amz-Signature=secret'
Controlling a Light Group
groups = ring.groups()
group = groups['the-group-you-want']
print(group.lights)
# Prints True if lights are on, False if off
# Turn on lights indefinitely
group.lights = True
# Turn off lights
group.lights = False
# Turn on lights for 30 seconds
group.lights = (True, 30)
