purei9-unofficial 0.0.1

A small example package

purei9_unofficial

Small proof-of-concept client to connect to Electrolux and AEG cleaner robots.

Compatibility

Only tested with an AEX RX9 (aka purei9) first Generation.

Update: Also seems to work with Purei9.2: https://community.home-assistant.io/t/integrating-eectrolux-pure-i9-robotic-vacuum/78648/11

Security

Other than the purei9 app, this tool does not verify the robot's TLS certificate, so beware of MitMs in your LAN, eavedropping on your robot. In case you are curious how the trust model works anyway: The TLS certificate of the robot is self signed and verified against a known public key which is gathered from the purei9 cloud.

Disclaimer

The developer of this software is not affiliated at all with Electrolux. Electrolux, AEG and Purei9 are brand/product names by Electrolux AB which i do not have any rights upon.

Installation

Install via pip

pip install purei9_unofficial 

If you want to use the CLI (not only the library) you additionally need to install tabulate

pip install tabulate 

Usage

First you need to get your local robot pw to talk to the robot.

$ python -m purei9_unofficial cloud [e-mail] mypassword
[
	{
		"RobotID": "900395798357985798375972",
		"Connected": true,
		"FirmwareVersion": "40.17",
		...
		"LocalRobotPassword": "29379204",
		...
	}
]

You can also use the tool to locate any robots in the network

$ python -m purei9_unofficial search
+---------------+--------------------------+---------+
|   Address     |         RobotID          |  Name   |
+---------------+--------------------------+---------+
| 192.168.1.101 | 900395798357985798375972 | Cleaner |
+---------------+--------------------------+---------+

Now you can connect to your robot.

$ python -m purei9_unofficial local 192.168.1.101 29379204 status
