heatmiser-neohub 0.1.2

Python client library and CLI for the IMI Heatmiser NeoHub API

heatmiser-neohub

Python client library and command-line interface for the IMI Heatmiser NeoHub API (WebSocket/WSS control interface on port 4243, plus UDP hubseek discovery on port 19790).

See docs/reference/neohub-api-rev-3.02.md for the full protocol reference this library implements.

Installation

Install from PyPI:

pip install heatmiser-neohub

For local development, install in editable mode with the dev extras:

pip install -e ".[dev]"

Docker

A slim multi-arch image (linux/amd64, linux/arm64) is published to Docker Hub as hypercat42/heatmiser-neohub. The image is built from this repository’s source (not installed from PyPI) so each tag matches the git commit that produced it.

# Discovery uses UDP broadcast. Containers are isolated from the LAN by default,
# so on Linux use host networking for `discover` (and for auto-discover when
# NEOHUB_HOST is unset).
docker run --rm --network host hypercat42/heatmiser-neohub discover

docker run --rm -e NEOHUB_HOST -e NEOHUB_TOKEN hypercat42/heatmiser-neohub live-data
# or: docker run --rm --env-file .env hypercat42/heatmiser-neohub live-data

Configuration

Copy .env.example to .env and set your hub details:

cp .env.example .env

The neohub CLI loads .env automatically (real environment variables still win). You can also pass flags or export variables yourself.

Variable	Flag	Description	Default
NEOHUB_HOST	--host	Hostname or IP of the hub. If unset, auto-discovers when exactly one hub is on the LAN.	(auto)
NEOHUB_TOKEN	--token	API token configured on the hub	(none)
NEOHUB_PORT	--port	WSS port. If unset, defaults to 4243.	4243

# With .env in the working directory
neohub live-data

# Or export / Docker --env-file
export NEOHUB_HOST=192.168.0.19
export NEOHUB_TOKEN=your-api-token
docker run --rm --env-file .env hypercat42/heatmiser-neohub live-data

CLI usage

The package installs a neohub console script:

# Discover NeoHubs on the local network
neohub discover

# Fetch live zone/device data
neohub live-data

# Fetch hub system settings
neohub system

# Send an arbitrary JSON command
neohub cmd '{"GET_SYSTEM":0}'

Each command also accepts --host, --token, and --port flags, which override the corresponding environment variables.

Library example

import asyncio

from heatmiser_neohub import NeoHubClient


async def main() -> None:
    async with NeoHubClient(host="192.168.0.19", token="your-api-token") as client:
        live_data = await client.get_live_data()
        for device in live_data.devices:
            print(device.zone_name, device.actual_temp, device.set_temp)


asyncio.run(main())

Discovery

NeoHubs can be located on the local network without knowing their IP address:

from heatmiser_neohub.discover import discover_hubs

for hub in discover_hubs():
    print(hub.ip, hub.device_id)

Development

pip install -e ".[dev]"
pytest
