Release 0.4.0 (#221)
This is the first proper python-kasa release since forking from pyhs100.

* Improved I/O handling, including asyncio interface, request merging & connection sharing
* API improvements throughout the whole package
* Support for LED strips
* Improved bulb support (transitions, support for more models)
* Onboarding is now possible without a mobile app
* Improved documentation
* And various other improvements, see the full changelog for details!

Thanks to all contributors, from testers, and issue reporters to those who have submitted pull requests! Thanks also to those who donated test devices to help to make this release happen!

Special thanks for this release go to @basnijholt (initial asyncio port, push to make this fork happen) and @bdraco (fixing the last release blocker, emeter support for powerstrips).

If you are using python-kasa in your projects, we would be happy to hear about it. Feel free to post a note on Github discussions!
If it is a project that could be interesting for other users and/or developers, feel also free to create a PR to add a short note to the README file.

python-kasa is a Python library to control TPLink smart home devices (plugs, wall switches, power strips, and bulbs) using asyncio.
This project is a maintainer-made fork of [pyHS100](https://github.com/GadgetReactor/pyHS100) project.
## Getting started
You can install the most recent release using pip:
```
pip install python-kasa
```
Alternatively, you can clone this repository and use poetry to install the development version:
```
git clone https://github.com/python-kasa/python-kasa.git
cd python-kasa/
poetry install
```
## Discovering devices
After installation, the devices can be discovered either by using `kasa discover` or by calling `kasa` without any parameters.
```
$ kasa
No --bulb nor --plug given, discovering..
Discovering devices for 3 seconds
== My Smart Plug - HS110(EU) ==
Device state: ON
IP address: 192.168.x.x
LED state: False
On since: 2017-03-26 18:29:17.242219
== Generic information ==
Time: 1970-06-22 02:39:41
Hardware: 1.0
Software: 1.0.8 Build 151101 Rel.24452
MAC (rssi): 50:C7:BF:XX:XX:XX (-77)
Location: {'latitude': XXXX, 'longitude': XXXX}
== Emeter ==
Current state: {'total': 133.082, 'power': 100.418681, 'current': 0.510967, 'voltage': 225.600477}
```
Use `kasa --help` to get list of all available commands, or alternatively, [consult the documentation](https://python-kasa.readthedocs.io/en/latest/cli.html).
## Basic controls
All devices support a variety of common commands, including:
* `state` which returns state information
* `on` and `off` for turning the device on or off
* `emeter` (where applicable) to return energy consumption information
* `sysinfo` to return raw system information
## Energy meter
Passing no options to `emeter` command will return the current consumption.
Possible options include `--year` and `--month` for retrieving historical state,
and reseting the counters is done with `--erase`.
```
$ kasa emeter
== Emeter ==
Current state: {'total': 133.105, 'power': 108.223577, 'current': 0.54463, 'voltage': 225.296283}
```
## Bulb-specific commands
At the moment setting brightness, color temperature and color (in HSV) are supported depending on the device.
The commands are straightforward, so feel free to check `--help` for instructions how to use them.
# Library usage
You can find several code examples in [the API documentation](https://python-kasa.readthedocs.io).
## Contributing
Contributions are very welcome! To simplify the process, we are leveraging automated checks and tests for contributions.
### Setting up development environment
To get started, simply clone this repository and initialize the development environment.
We are using [poetry](https://python-poetry.org) for dependency management, so after cloning the repository simply execute
`poetry install` which will install all necessary packages and create a virtual environment for you.
### Code-style checks
We use several tools to automatically check all contributions. The simplest way to verify that everything is formatted properly
before creating a pull request, consider activating the pre-commit hooks by executing `pre-commit install`.
This will make sure that the checks are passing when you do a commit.
You can also execute the checks by running either `tox -e lint` to only do the linting checks, or `tox` to also execute the tests.
### Running tests
You can run tests on the library by executing `pytest` in the source directory.
This will run the tests against contributed example responses, but you can also execute the tests against a real device:
```
pytest --ip <address>
```
Note that this will perform state changes on the device.
### Analyzing network captures
The simplest way to add support for a new device or to improve existing ones is to capture traffic between the mobile app and the device.
After capturing the traffic, you can either use the [softScheck's wireshark dissector](https://github.com/softScheck/tplink-smartplug#wireshark-dissector)
or the `parse_pcap.py` script contained inside the `devtools` directory.
