Description: PyVLX - controling VELUX windows with Python
============================================

[](https://travis-ci.org/Julius2342/pyvlx)

PyVLX uses the Velux KLF 200 interface to control io-Homecontrol devices, e.g. Velux Windows.

NEW API!!!
----------

Velux published a new API. Connecting to the new API is still work in progress.

The [current state can be found here](https://github.com/Julius2342/pyvlx/blob/master/examples/demo.py).

This wrapper can already:

* Login to KLF 200 with password.
* Retrieve scene list.
* Run/activate scene.
* Retrieve object list.
* Set position of specific window (50%)

Stay tuned!

**Note:** To use version 0.2.\* you have to install the [new Firmware](https://www.velux.com/api/klf200) on your KLF device. If you dont want to use the new firmware install pyvlx==0.1.6.

Installation
------------

PyVLX can be installed via:

```bash
pip3 install pyvlx
```

Basic Operations
----------------

```python
"""Just a demo of the new PyVLX module."""
import asyncio
from pyvlx import PyVLX


async def main(loop):
"""Demonstrate functionality of PyVLX."""
pyvlx = PyVLX('pyvlx.yaml', log_frames=True, loop=loop)
# Alternative:
# pyvlx = PyVLX(host="192.168.2.127", password="velux123", loop=loop)

# Runing scenes:
await pyvlx.load_scenes()
await pyvlx.scenes["All Windows Closed"].run()

# Changing position of windows:
await pyvlx.load_nodes()
await pyvlx.nodes['Bath'].open()
await pyvlx.nodes['Bath'].close()
await pyvlx.nodes['Bath'].set_position_percent(45)

# You can easily rename nodes:
# await pyvlx.nodes["Window 10"].rename("Window 11")

await pyvlx.disconnect()

if __name__ == '__main__':
# pylint: disable=invalid-name
LOOP = asyncio.get_event_loop()
LOOP.run_until_complete(main(LOOP))
# LOOP.run_forever()
LOOP.close()
```
