aioharmony 1.0.0

asyncio Python library for connecting to and controlling the Logitech Harmony

Python library for programmatically using a Logitech Harmony Link or Ultimate Hub.

This library originated from iandday/pyharmony which was a fork of bkanuka/pyharmony with the intent to:

• Make the harmony library asyncio

• Ability to provide one’s own custom callbacks to be called

• Automatic reconnect, even if re-connection cannot be established for a time

• More easily get the HUB configuration through API call

• Additional callbacks: connect, disconnect, HUB configuration updated

• Using unique msgid’s ensuring that responses from the HUB are correctly managed.

Protocol

As the harmony protocol is being worked out, notes will be in PROTOCOL.md.

Status

• Retrieving current activity

• Querying for entire device information

• Querying for activity information only

• Querying for current activity

• Starting Activity

• Sending Command

• Changing channels

• Custom callbacks.

Usage

usage: __main__.py [-h] (--harmony_ip HARMONY_IP | --discover)
                   [--protocol {WEBSOCKETS,XMPP}]
                   [--loglevel {DEBUG,INFO,WARNING,ERROR,CRITICAL}]
                   [--logmodules LOGMODULES]
                   [--show_responses | --no-show_responses] [--wait WAIT]
                   {show_config,show_detailed_config,show_current_activity,start_activity,power_off,sync,listen,activity_monitor,send_command,change_channel}
                   ...

aioharmony - Harmony device control

positional arguments:
  {show_config,show_detailed_config,show_current_activity,start_activity,power_off,sync,listen,activity_monitor,send_command,change_channel}
    show_config         Print the Harmony device configuration.
    show_detailed_config
                        Print the detailed Harmony device configuration.
    show_current_activity
                        Print the current activity config.
    start_activity      Switch to a different activity.
    power_off           Stop the activity.
    sync                Sync the harmony.
    listen              Output everything HUB sends out. Use in combination
                        with --wait.
    activity_monitor    Monitor and show when an activity is changing. Use in
                        combination with --wait to keep monitoring
                        foractivities otherwise only current activity will be
                        shown.
    send_command        Send a simple command.
    send_commands       Send a series of simple commands separated by spaces.
    change_channel      Change the channel

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  --harmony_ip HARMONY_IP
                        IP Address of the Harmony device, multiple IPs can be
                        specified as a comma separated list without spaces.
                        (default: None)
  --discover            Scan for Harmony devices. (default: False)
  --protocol {WEBSOCKETS,XMPP}
                        Protocol to use to connect to HUB. Note for XMPP one
                        has to ensure that XMPP is enabledon the hub.
                        (default: None)
  --loglevel {DEBUG,INFO,WARNING,ERROR,CRITICAL}
                        Logging level for all components to print to the
                        console. (default: ERROR)
  --logmodules LOGMODULES
                        Restrict logging to modules specified. Multiple can be
                        provided as a comma separated list without any spaces.
                        Use * to include any further submodules. (default:
                        None)
  --show_responses      Print out responses coming from HUB. (default: False)
  --no-show_responses   Do not print responses coming from HUB. (default:
                        False)
  --wait WAIT           How long to wait in seconds after completion, useful
                        in combination with --show-responses. Use -1 to wait
                        infinite, otherwise has to be a positive number.
                        (default: 0)

Release Notes

See changelog <https://github.com/Harmony-Libs/aioharmony/blob/main/CHANGELOG.md> for release notes

TODO

• Redo discovery for asyncio. This will be done once XMPP is re-implemented by Logitech

• More items can be done from the Harmony iOS app; determining what could be done within the library as well

• Is it possible to update device configuration?
