dorfwash

dorfwash lets you monitor your Miele washing machines via the Miele Professional IP Profile API.

dorfwash uses washpy to communicate with the Miele washing machines.

Usage

There are multiple options on how to run dorfwash.

poetry

run

poetry run python dorfwash config.json

See config.json for an example configuration.

Device Setup

If you have a new washing machine and want to set it up for use with dorfwash, you can use the setup_new_device.py:

poetry run python setup_new_device.py

The script will discover a device URL four you, given that you provide it with an IP address or a hostname of the washing machine / XKM module. Use that device URL in the config.json.

Note: You will need to discover the IP address or hostname of the machine on your own. I found arp-scan to be a helpful tool for that.

Then, the script will initialize the admin user. You have to choose an admin password. Then, it will set up a non-admin user with a name and password of you liking.

Be aware, that the Miele IP Profile API may require you to choose a strong enough password (e.g. at least 8 characters, use of upper case, lower case, digits, special characters).

docker

dorfwash provides a small Dockerfile, so you can build your own dorfwash docker container.

docker build -t dorfwash .

You need to mount a valid config.json file at /config/config.json in the container to run it.

Also, in docker-compose is an example docker-compose.yml. This way, you can just run

docker compose up

to build, mount the config, and run the server.
