trionesControl 1.2.0

Simple python package to control smart lights using the Triones porotocol

trionesControl

This module implements the triones protocol reverse engineered by madhead with python, offering a programmatic way to control these kind of lights without needing the app on your phone. To learn more about the protocol, please read the following specification:

• madhead - saberlight/protocols/Triones/protocol.md

Requirements

This package only works on Linux, it uses pygatt and depends on blueZ.

The package has been tested in python 3 (3.8.5) but it may work on previous versions, even python 2.7, as long as pygatt requirements are met.

Installation

Install trionesControl with pip from PyPI:

pip install trionesControl

This will install all the dependencies used by this package and pexpect, an optional pygatt needed to use it's BlueZ backend.

Documentation

Connexion handling

• connect(MAC): Connect to the device with the mac address specified.
• connect(MAC, False): Connect to the device with the mac address specified and dont reset previous connections for using multiple devices at once.
• disconnect(device): Disconnects from the specified device.

LED Control

• powerOn(device): Powers on the device, the LEDs will turn on.

• powerOff(device): Powers off the device, the LEDs will turn off.

• setRGB(r: int, g: int, b: int, device): Sets the LED color configuration of the device to the r, g and b colors. (0-255)

• setWhite(intensity: int, device): Sets the device's LED to white with the specified intensiy. (0-255)

• setBuiltIn(mode: int, speed: int, device): Activates the selected predefined built-in mode at the selected speed (0-255). The built modes go from 37 to 56.

All the functions do not wait for any response from the device by default. This can be overriden by adding an aditional argument set to True.

• powerOn(device, True): Powers on the device, the LEDs will turn on and waits for a reponse.

Example use

The unittest code available in tests/test.py can be used as a sample to use the available functions of the package. You can test your bulb / LED strip by using the following code too.

Connect and power on the device

import time
import trionesControl.trionesControl as tc

#Change the mac address to the one of your bulb or LED strip
device = tc.connect('00:00:00:00:00:00')
tc.powerOn(device)

Change colors

# RGB mode
tc.setRGB(100,100,100, device)
time.sleep(1)
tc.setRGB(255, 255, 255, device)
time.sleep(1)
tc.setRGB(255,0,0, device)
time.sleep(1)
tc.setRGB(0,255,0, device)

#White mode
time.sleep(10)
tc.setWhite(255, device)

Built-in modes

#Change built-in modes (37-56)
time.sleep(10)
tc.setBuiltIn(37, 1)
tc.time(10)

Power off and disconnect

tc.powerOff(device)
tc.disconnect(device)
