Thank you Abode for having a relatively simple API to reverse engineer. Hopefully in the future you’ll open it up for official use.
API calls faster than 60 seconds is not recommended as it can overwhelm Abode’s servers. Leverage the cloud push event notification functionality as much as possible. Please use this module responsibly.
Installation
Standalone from source:
pip3 install .
>From PyPi:
pip3 install abodepy

A full list of devices and their current states:
$ python abodecl.py --username USERNAME --password PASSWORD --devices Device Name: Glass Break Sensor, Device ID: RF:xxxxxxxx, Device Type: GLASS, Device Status: Online Device Name: Keypad, Device ID: RF:xxxxxxxx, Device Type: Keypad, Device Status: Online Device Name: Remote, Device ID: RF:xxxxxxxx, Device Type: Remote Controller, Device Status: Online Device Name: Garage Entry Door, Device ID: RF:xxxxxxxx, Device Type: Door Contact, Device Status: Closed Device Name: Front Door, Device ID: RF:xxxxxxxx, Device Type: Door Contact, Device Status: Closed Device Name: Back Door, Device ID: RF:xxxxxxxx, Device Type: Door Contact, Device Status: Closed Device Name: Status Indicator, Device ID: ZB:xxxxxxxx, Device Type: Status Display, Device Status: Online Device Name: Downstairs Motion Camera, Device ID: ZB:xxxxxxxx, Device Type: Motion Camera, Device Status: Online Device Name: Back Door Deadbolt, Device ID: ZW:xxxxxxxx, Device Type: Door Lock, Device Status: LockClosed Device Name: Front Door Deadbolt, Device ID: ZW:xxxxxxxx, Device Type: Door Lock, Device Status: LockClosed Device Name: Garage Door Deadbolt, Device ID: ZW:xxxxxxxx, Device Type: Door Lock, Device Status: LockClosed Device Name: Alarm area_1, Device ID: area_1, Device Type: Alarm, Device Status: standby
The current state of a specific device using the device id:
$ python abodecl.py --username USERNAME --password PASSWORD --device ZW:xxxxxxxx Device Name: Garage Door Deadbolt, Device ID: ZW:xxxxxxxx, Device Type: Door Lock, Device Status: LockClosed
Additionally, multiple specific devices using the device id:
$ python abodecl.py --username USERNAME --password PASSWORD --device ZW:xxxxxxxx --device RF:xxxxxxxx Device Name: Garage Door Deadbolt, Device ID: ZW:xxxxxxxx, Device Type: Door Lock, Device Status: LockClosed Device Name: Back Door, Device ID: RF:xxxxxxxx, Device Type: Door Contact, Device Status: Closed
You can also block and listen for all device change events:
$ python abodecl.py --username USERNAME --password PASSWORD --listen No devices specified, adding all devices to listener... Listening for device updates... Device Name: Alarm area_1, Device ID: area_1, Status: standby, At: 2017-05-27 11:13:08 Device Name: Garage Door Deadbolt, Device ID: ZW:xxxxxxxx, Status: LockOpen, At: 2017-05-27 11:13:31 Device Name: Garage Entry Door, Device ID: RF:xxxxxxxx, Status: Open, At: 2017-05-27 11:13:34 Device Name: Garage Entry Door, Device ID: RF:xxxxxxxx, Status: Closed, At: 2017-05-27 11:13:39 Device Name: Garage Door Deadbolt, Device ID: ZW:xxxxxxxx, Status: LockClosed, At: 2017-05-27 11:13:41 Device Name: Alarm area_1, Device ID: area_1, Status: home, At: 2017-05-27 11:13:59 Device update listening stopped.
If you specify one or more devices with the –device argument along with the –listen command then only those devices will listen for change events.
Keyboard interupt CTRL+C to exit listening mode.
