petsafe-api
Connect and control PetSafe Smart Feed, ScoopFree, and Smart Door devices using the PetSafe API.
BREAKING CHANGE: Version 2.0 uses the new PetSafe API. You will need to request new tokens.
PetSafe will lock your account if you request data more often than once per 5 minutes.
Project rename
This repository is now named petsafe-api and the published package name is petsafe-api on PyPI.
Import paths are unchanged: continue using
import petsafeandpython -m petsafe.
Acknowledgements
This project builds on the excellent prior work from the original developers:
Thank you to both projects for building the API integrations for existing feeder and ScoopFree functionality. This repository includes all of that previous work, with Smart Door API support added on top.
Installation
pip install petsafe-api
If installing from source code,
python setup.py install
Local SmartDoor control and provisioning (3.1.0)
LocalPetSafeClient connects to a compatible local server using its HTTPS origin
and API token. It does not use a PetSafe vendor login, and returns the same
DeviceSmartDoor objects as the cloud client, so existing methods are reused:
import asyncio
import petsafe
async def main() -> None:
async with petsafe.LocalPetSafeClient(
"https://petsafe.example", "LOCAL_API_TOKEN"
) as client:
door = (await client.get_smartdoors())[0]
await door.lock()
await door.unlock()
await door.smart_mode()
asyncio.run(main())
BLE provisioning dependencies are optional: pip install petsafe-api[ble].
SetupClient creates a server-correlated setup session;
the BLE entry point is
provision_smartdoor:
from petsafe import SetupClient
from petsafe.provisioning import WifiNetwork, provision_smartdoor
async def provision() -> None:
async with SetupClient(SERVER_ORIGIN, API_TOKEN) as setup:
session = await setup.create(DEVICE_ID, "provision")
result = await provision_smartdoor(
ble_device,
session.endpoint,
WifiNetwork(ssid=SSID, password=PASSWORD, bssid=BSSID_BYTES),
confirm=setup.confirmation(session),
)
Local operation requires a compatible server and a hostname resolving to it. Provisioning also requires supported BLE hardware or a nearby proxy and an HTTPS hostname and certificate trusted by the SmartDoor; hardware testing used an Amazon-trusted certificate. A raw IP address is not a supported or promised substitute.
Cloud login tokens
You must use tokens to interact with the PetSafe Smart-Feed API.
There are two methods to retrieve tokens:
Get tokens using command line
- Execute
python -m petsafe [email_address]to request an email code. - Check your email for an email code from PetSafe.
- Enter your code to generate tokens.
Get tokens using Python
import petsafe as sf
# replace with your email address
client = sf.PetSafeClient(email="email@example.com")
client.request_code()
# check your email for a code
code = input("Enter email code: ")
token = client.request_tokens_from_code(code)
print("email:", client.email)
print("id_token:", client.id_token)
print("refresh_token:", client.refresh_token)
print("access_token:", client.access_token)
Example usage
List feeders
import petsafe as sf
client = sf.PetSafeClient(email="email@example.com",
id_token="YOUR_ID_TOKEN",
refresh_token="YOUR_REFRESH_TOKEN",
access_token="YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN")
devices = sf.devices.get_feeders(client)
# print all feeders
for device in devices:
print(device)
Feed 1/8 cup at normal speed
import petsafe as sf
client = sf.PetSafeClient(email="email@example.com",
id_token="YOUR_ID_TOKEN",
refresh_token="YOUR_REFRESH_TOKEN",
access_token="YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN")
devices = sf.devices.get_feeders(client)
# get the first feeder
feeder = devices[0]
feeder.feed(amount=1, slow_feed=False)
Get current battery level (0 - 100)
import petsafe as sf
client = sf.PetSafeClient(email="email@example.com",
id_token="YOUR_ID_TOKEN",
refresh_token="YOUR_REFRESH_TOKEN",
access_token="YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN")
devices = sf.devices.get_feeders(client)
# get the first feeder
feeder = devices[0]
print(feeder.battery_level)
Get current food level
import petsafe as sf
client = sf.PetSafeClient(email="email@example.com",
id_token="YOUR_ID_TOKEN",
refresh_token="YOUR_REFRESH_TOKEN",
access_token="YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN")
devices = sf.devices.get_feeders(client)
# get the first feeder
feeder = devices[0]
status = feeder.food_low_status
if status == 0:
print("Feeder has food.")
elif status == 1:
print("Feeder is low on food.")
elif status == 2:
print("Feeder is out of food.")
SmartDoor controls
import asyncio
import petsafe as sf
async def main() -> None:
client = sf.PetSafeClient(
email="email@example.com",
id_token="YOUR_ID_TOKEN",
refresh_token="YOUR_REFRESH_TOKEN",
access_token="YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN",
)
doors = await client.get_smartdoors()
door = doors[0]
# Manually lock the door and refresh its reported state
await door.lock()
# Switch back to Smart mode without forcing a refresh
await door.smart_mode(update_data=False)
# Or use the client helpers that return the updated door instance
updated = await client.manual_unlock_smartdoor(door.api_name)
print(updated.mode)
asyncio.run(main())
get litterboxes
import petsafe as sf
client = sf.PetSafeClient(email="email@example.com",
id_token="YOUR_ID_TOKEN",
refresh_token="YOUR_REFRESH_TOKEN",
access_token="YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN")
devices = sf.devices.get_litterboxes(client)
# print all litterboxes
for device in devices:
print(device)
get litterbox activity
import petsafe as sf
client = sf.PetSafeClient(email="email@example.com",
id_token="YOUR_ID_TOKEN",
refresh_token="YOUR_REFRESH_TOKEN",
access_token="YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN")
devices = sf.devices.get_litterboxes(client)
litterbox = devices[0]
print(litterbox.get_schedule())
rake the litterbox
import petsafe as sf
client = sf.PetSafeClient(email="email@example.com",
id_token="YOUR_ID_TOKEN",
refresh_token="YOUR_REFRESH_TOKEN",
access_token="YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN")
devices = sf.devices.get_litterboxes(client)
litterbox = devices[0]
litterbox.rake()
modify the litterbox rake timer
import petsafe as sf
client = sf.PetSafeClient(email="email@example.com",
id_token="YOUR_ID_TOKEN",
refresh_token="YOUR_REFRESH_TOKEN",
access_token="YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN")
devices = sf.devices.get_litterboxes(client)
litterbox = devices[0]
litterbox.modify_timer(15)
reset the litterbox rake count
import petsafe as sf
client = sf.PetSafeClient(email="email@example.com",
id_token="YOUR_ID_TOKEN",
refresh_token="YOUR_REFRESH_TOKEN",
access_token="YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN")
devices = sf.devices.get_litterboxes(client)
litterbox = devices[0]
litterbox.reset()
