# Contributing
|
|
|
|
You probably arrived to this page as you are interested in contributing to python-kasa in some form?
|
|
All types of contributions are very welcome, so thank you!
|
|
This page aims to help you to get started.

## Setting up the development environment
|
|
|
|
To get started, simply clone this repository and initialize the development environment.
|
|
We are using [uv](https://github.com/astral-sh/uv) for dependency management, so after cloning the repository simply execute
|
|
`uv sync` which will install all necessary packages and create a virtual environment for you in `.venv`.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
$ git clone https://github.com/python-kasa/python-kasa.git
|
|
$ cd python-kasa
|
|
$ uv sync --all-extras
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Code-style checks
|
|
|
|
We use several tools to automatically check all contributions as part of our CI pipeline.
|
|
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.
|
|
|
|
```{note}
|
|
You can also execute the pre-commit hooks on all files by executing `pre-commit run -a`
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Running tests
|
|
|
|
You can run tests on the library by executing `pytest` in the source directory:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
$ uv run pytest kasa
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This will run the tests against the contributed example responses.
|
|
|
|
```{note}
|
|
You can also execute the tests against a real device using `uv run pytest --ip=<address> --username=<username> --password=<password>`.
|
|
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)
|
|
or the `parse_pcap.py` script contained inside the `devtools` directory.
|
|
Note, that this works currently only on kasa-branded devices which use port 9999 for communications.
|
|
|
|
## Contributing fixture files
|
|
|
|
One of the easiest ways to contribute is by creating a fixture file and uploading it for us.
|
|
These files will help us to improve the library and run tests against devices that we have no access to.
|
|
|
|
This library is tested against responses from real devices ("fixture files").
|
|
These files contain responses for selected, known device commands and are stored [in our test suite](https://github.com/python-kasa/python-kasa/tree/master/tests/fixtures).
|
|
|
|
You can generate these files by using the `dump_devinfo.py` script.
|
|
Note, that this script should be run inside the main source directory so that the generated files are stored in the correct directories.
|
|
The easiest way to do that is by doing:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
$ git clone https://github.com/python-kasa/python-kasa.git
|
|
$ cd python-kasa
|
|
$ uv sync --all-extras
|
|
$ source .venv/bin/activate
|
|
$ python -m devtools.dump_devinfo --username <username> --password <password> --host 192.168.1.123
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```{note}
|
|
You can also execute the script against a network by using `--target`: `python -m devtools.dump_devinfo --target 192.168.1.255`
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The script will run queries against the device, and prompt at the end if you want to save the results.
|
|
If you choose to do so, it will save the fixture files directly in their correct place to make it easy to create a pull request.
|
|
|
|
```{note}
|
|
When adding new fixture files, you should run `pre-commit run -a` to re-generate the list of supported devices.
|
|
You may need to adjust `device_fixtures.py` to add a new model into the correct device categories. Verify that test pass by executing `uv run pytest kasa`.
|
|
```
