Teemu R 71ac1f043a Add device discovery (#25)
* add (untested) discover mode

* Keep discovery and normal communication separate, uppercase magic consts

This sepearates the earlier test code for discovering devices,
and adds 5 sec timeout for gathering responses from potential devices.

This commit also uppercases magic constants.

Discovery & communication tested with HS110.

* update readme with example how to discover devices, pep8ify

pyHS100

Python Library to control TPLink Switch (HS100 / HS110)

Usage

For all available API functions run help(SmartPlug)

from pyHS100 import SmartPlug
from pprint import pformat as pf

plug = SmartPlug("192.168.250.186")
print("Alias, type and supported features: %s" % (plug.identify(),))
print("Hardware: %s" % pf(plug.hw_info))
print("Full sysinfo: %s" % pf(plug.get_sysinfo())) # this prints lots of information about the device

Time information

print("Current time: %s" % plug.time)
print("Timezone: %s" % plug.timezone)

Getting and setting the name

print("Alias: %s" % plug.alias)
plug.alias = "My New Smartplug"

State & switching

print("Current state: %s" % plug.state)
plug.turn_off()
plug.turn_on()

or

plug.state = "ON"
plug.state = "OFF"

Getting emeter status (on HS110)

print("Current consumption: %s" % plug.get_emeter_realtime())
print("Per day: %s" % plug.get_emeter_daily(year=2016, month=12))
print("Per month: %s" % plug.get_emeter_monthly(year=2016))

Switching the led

print("Current LED state: %s" % plug.led)
plug.led = False # turn off led
print("New LED state: %s" % plug.led)

Example

There is also a simple tool for testing connectivity in examples, to use:

python -m examples.cli <ip>

Discovering devices

python3 -m examples.discover
