Midea-local python lib
Control your Midea M-Smart appliances via local area network.
This library is part of https://github.com/georgezhao2010/midea_ac_lan code. It was separated to segregate responsibilities.
⭐If this component is helpful for you, please star it, it encourages me a lot.
Getting started
Finding your device
from midealocal.discover import discover
# Without knowing the ip address
discover()
# If you know the ip address
discover(ip_address="203.0.113.11")
# The device type is in hexadecimal as in midealocal/devices/TYPE
type_code = hex(list(discover().values())[0]["type"])[2:]
Getting data from device
from midealocal.discover import discover
from midealocal.devices import device_selector
token = "..."
key = "..."
# Get the first device
d = list(discover().values())[0]
# Select the device
ac = device_selector(
name="AC",
device_id=d["device_id"],
device_type=d["type"],
ip_address=d["ip_address"],
port=d["port"],
token=token,
key=key,
device_protocol=d["protocol"],
model=d["model"],
subtype=0,
customize="",
)
# Connect and authenticate
ac.connect()
# Getting the attributes
print(ac.attributes)
# Setting the temperature
ac.set_target_temperature(23.0, None)
# Setting the swing
ac.set_swing(False, False)
command line tool
python3 -m midealocal.cli -h
Development
This project uses uv for its development environment. After installing uv:
git clone https://github.com/midea-lan/midea-local.git
cd midea-local
./scripts/setup.sh # Linux / macOS / WSL2 (Windows: scripts\setup.ps1)
This creates a .venv, installs all dependencies, and sets up the prek hooks.
Run tools with uv run, e.g. uv run python -m pytest ./tests/. See the contributing
guide for the full workflow and per-OS uv install instructions.
