A simple Python API for Tile® Bluetooth trackers

📡 pytile: A simple Python API for Tile® Bluetooth trackers

pytile is a simple Python library for retrieving information on Tile® Bluetooth trackers (including last location and more).

This library is built on an unpublished, unofficial Tile API; it may alter or cease operation at any point.

pytile is currently supported on:

• Python 3.6
• Python 3.7
• Python 3.8

Installation

pip install pytile

Usage

import asyncio

from aiohttp import ClientSession

from pytile import async_login


async def main() -> None:
    """Run!"""
    client = await async_login("<EMAIL>", "<PASSWORD>")

    # Get all Tiles associated with an account:
    await client.tiles.all()


asyncio.run(main())

By default, the library creates a new connection to Tile with each coroutine. If you are calling a large number of coroutines (or merely want to squeeze out every second of runtime savings possible), an aiohttp ClientSession can be used for connection pooling:

import asyncio

from aiohttp import ClientSession

from pytile import async_login


async def main() -> None:
    """Run!"""
    async with ClientSession() as session:
        client = await async_login("<EMAIL>", "<PASSWORD>", session)

        # Get all Tiles associated with an account:
        await client.tiles.all()


asyncio.run(main())

If for some reason you need to use a specific client UUID (to, say, ensure that the Tile API sees you as a client it's seen before) or a specific locale, you can do so easily:

import asyncio

from aiohttp import ClientSession

from pytile import async_login


async def main() -> None:
    """Run!"""
    client = await async_login(
        "<EMAIL>", "<PASSWORD>", client_uuid="MY_UUID", locale="en-GB"
    )

    # Get all Tiles associated with an account:
    await client.tiles.all()


asyncio.run(main())
