This is a library to interface with La Marzocco's Home machines.

Installing this libary

This project is on pypi and can be installed using pip

pip install pylamarzocco

Libraries in this project

• LaMarzoccoCloudClient interacts with La Marzocco's cloud API to send commands and retrieve machine information. It also supports WebSocket connections for real-time updates.
• LaMarzoccoBluetoothClient provides a bluetooth client to send settings to the machine via bluetooth.
• LaMarzoccoMachine provides a high-level interface for interacting with La Marzocco machines, combining both cloud and bluetooth clients.

Setup

LaMarzoccoCloudClient

You need username and password, which are the credentials you're using to sign into the La Marzocco Home app. Additionally, you need an InstallationKey for authentication.

Generating Installation Key

First, generate an installation key for your client:

import uuid
from pylamarzocco.util import generate_installation_key, InstallationKey

# Generate new key material
installation_key = generate_installation_key(str(uuid.uuid4()).lower())

# Save it for future use
with open("installation_key.json", "w", encoding="utf-8") as f:
    f.write(installation_key.to_json())

# Or load existing key material
with open("installation_key.json", "r", encoding="utf-8") as f:
    installation_key = InstallationKey.from_json(f.read())

Initializing the Client

from aiohttp import ClientSession
from pylamarzocco import LaMarzoccoCloudClient

async with ClientSession() as session:
    cloud_client = LaMarzoccoCloudClient(
        username=username,
        password=password,
        installation_key=installation_key,
        client=session,
    )
    
    # Register the client (only needed once for new installation keys)
    await cloud_client.async_register_client()

LaMarzoccoBluetoothClient

The LaMarzoccoBluetoothClient discovers bluetooth devices and connects to them to send local bluetooth commands. Some commands, like turning the machine on and off, can be sent through bluetooth.

Obtaining the Bluetooth Token

Before you can use the Bluetooth client, you need to obtain the Bluetooth authentication token. There are three ways to get this token:

Method 1: Through the Cloud Client

The easiest method is to retrieve the token from the cloud API after initializing the cloud client:

from pylamarzocco import LaMarzoccoCloudClient

# Initialize and authenticate with the cloud client
cloud_client = LaMarzoccoCloudClient(
    username=username,
    password=password,
    installation_key=installation_key,
    client=session,
)

# Get all machines associated with your account
things = await cloud_client.list_things()

# The token is available in the ble_auth_token field
ble_token = things[0].ble_auth_token

Method 2: Through the Static Method (Pairing Mode)

If you don't have cloud credentials or prefer to use Bluetooth directly, you can read the token from the machine when it's in pairing mode:

from pylamarzocco import LaMarzoccoBluetoothClient

# Discover available bluetooth devices
bluetooth_devices = await LaMarzoccoBluetoothClient.discover_devices()

if bluetooth_devices:
    # Put your machine in pairing mode first!
    # Then read the token directly from the machine
    ble_token = await LaMarzoccoBluetoothClient.read_token(bluetooth_devices[0])

Note: This method only works when the machine is in pairing mode. Consult your machine's manual for instructions on how to enable pairing mode.

Method 3: Scanning the QR Code

The Bluetooth token is printed as a QR code on a label inside the machine's chassis. You can scan this QR code with a standard QR code reader app to obtain the token string.

1. Open the machine's chassis (consult your machine's manual for instructions)
2. Locate the QR code label
3. Scan the QR code with a QR code reader app
4. The scanned value is your Bluetooth token

Using the Bluetooth Client

Once you have the token from any of the above methods, you can initialize the Bluetooth client:

from pylamarzocco import LaMarzoccoBluetoothClient

# Discover available bluetooth devices
if bluetooth_devices := await LaMarzoccoBluetoothClient.discover_devices():
    print("Found bluetooth device:", bluetooth_devices[0])
    
    bluetooth_client = LaMarzoccoBluetoothClient(
        ble_device=bluetooth_devices[0],
        ble_token=ble_token,  # Use the token from any of the three methods above
    )

LaMarzoccoMachine

Once you have any or all of the clients, you can initialize a machine object with:

from pylamarzocco import LaMarzoccoMachine

machine = LaMarzoccoMachine(
    serial_number=serial_number,
    cloud_client=cloud_client,
    bluetooth_client=bluetooth_client,  # Optional
)

You can then use the machine object to send commands to the machine, or to get the current status of the machine.

Getting Machine Information

# Get dashboard information
await machine.get_dashboard()

# Get firmware information
await machine.get_firmware()

# Get schedule settings
await machine.get_schedule()

# Get machine settings
await machine.get_settings()

# Get statistics
await machine.get_statistics()

# Get machine data as dictionary
machine_data = machine.to_dict()

Controlling the Machine

from pylamarzocco.const import SteamTargetLevel

# Turn machine on/off
await machine.set_power(True)  # Turn on
await machine.set_power(False)  # Turn off

# Control steam
await machine.set_steam(True)  # Enable steam
await machine.set_steam(False)  # Disable steam

# Set coffee target temperature
await machine.set_coffee_target_temperature(93.0)

# Set steam level (1-3)
await machine.set_steam_level(SteamTargetLevel.LEVEL_2)

WebSockets

The cloud client supports WebSocket connections for real-time updates from the machine dashboard.

To use WebSockets, start the connection with:

from pylamarzocco.models import ThingDashboardWebsocketConfig

def callback(config: ThingDashboardWebsocketConfig):
    """Callback function for websocket updates."""
    print(f"Received update: {config.to_dict()}")

# Connect to dashboard websocket with optional callback
await machine.connect_dashboard_websocket(callback)

# The websocket will receive real-time updates about the machine status
# To disconnect later:
await machine.websocket.disconnect()

Complete Example

Here's a complete example of using the library:

import asyncio
import uuid
from pathlib import Path
from aiohttp import ClientSession
from pylamarzocco import LaMarzoccoCloudClient, LaMarzoccoMachine
from pylamarzocco.util import InstallationKey, generate_installation_key

SERIAL = "your_serial_number"
USERNAME = "your_username"
PASSWORD = "your_password"

async def main():
    # Generate or load key material
    key_file = Path("installation_key.json")
    if not key_file.exists():
        installation_key = generate_installation_key(str(uuid.uuid4()).lower())
        with open(key_file, "w", encoding="utf-8") as f:
            f.write(installation_key.to_json())
        registration_required = True
    else:
        with open(key_file, "r", encoding="utf-8") as f:
            installation_key = InstallationKey.from_json(f.read())
        registration_required = False

    async with ClientSession() as session:
        # Initialize cloud client
        client = LaMarzoccoCloudClient(
            username=USERNAME,
            password=PASSWORD,
            installation_key=installation_key,
            client=session,
        )
        
        # Register device if needed
        if registration_required:
            await client.async_register_client()
        
        # Initialize machine
        machine = LaMarzoccoMachine(SERIAL, client)
        
        # Get machine information
        await machine.get_dashboard()
        await machine.get_firmware()
        await machine.get_settings()
        
        # Control the machine
        await machine.set_power(True)
        await asyncio.sleep(5)
        await machine.set_power(False)

asyncio.run(main())
