python-aidot
Control AIDOT WiFi lights and cameras from Python and Home Assistant.
This is a camera-capable fork of the upstream lights-only
python-aidot. It adds
live WebRTC video streaming (DTLS and SDES-SRTP paths), snapshots, PTZ, camera
controls, cloud recordings/thumbnails, and two-way (push-to-talk) audio, plus a
Home Assistant custom component that exposes all of it.
Library install
The camera support is not published to PyPI (PyPI only has the upstream lights-only releases). Install this fork's library directly from the repo:
# lights + camera cloud/control only:
pip install "git+https://github.com/cbrightly/python-AiDot"
# add live WebRTC streaming, snapshots, and two-way audio:
pip install "python-aidot[webrtc] @ git+https://github.com/cbrightly/python-AiDot"
Home Assistant component
The custom component lives in custom_components/aidot/. Its manifest.json
lists the third-party Python dependencies (aiortc, av, paho-mqtt, …) so Home
Assistant installs those automatically, but the aidot library itself is not
on PyPI - install it into Home Assistant's Python environment first:
# inside the HA venv / container
pip install "python-aidot[webrtc] @ git+https://github.com/cbrightly/python-AiDot"
Then copy custom_components/aidot/ into your HA config/custom_components/
folder (or add this repo to HACS as a custom repository) and restart Home
Assistant.
CLI
test_camera.py exercises the camera features directly - discovery, LAN probe,
WebRTC streaming, snapshots, recordings, attribute get/set, and two-way audio
(--talk). Run python test_camera.py --help for the full list.
