wave-reader 1.0.2

Unofficial package for Airthings Wave communication.

Wave Reader Utilities

The Airthings Wave is a series of devices that track Radon levels in the home. Radon is a radioactive gas that comes from the breakdown of uranium in soil and rock. It's invisible, odourless and tasteless.

This is an unofficial Airthings Wave community library designed to provide utilities for device and web communication. The library wouldn't be possible without the existing efforts from Airthings and the community. See documentation for more information.

Features

• Using bleak as a dependency for platform cross-compatibility and support for asynchronous operation.
• Support for major models: Wave+, Wave, Wave (Version 2) and Wave Mini devices. View Plus is not supported, as it sends data over WiFi, not BTLE.
• Code testing, coverage reporting, linting, type hinting, and formatting.
• Provide a more comprehensive programming interface for a developer audience.
• Auxillary module that provides a web client for Airthings API and OAuth2 authentication.

Requirements

In Ubuntu/Debian, make sure you have libglib2.0-dev and bluez installed:

sudo apt-get install libglib2.0-dev bluez -y

Other Linux distributions should have equivalent packages. In theory, other platforms (Windows, Mac) are supported by using bleak as a dependency, but open a ticket if you run into any issues.

Installation

You can install the library by running:

pip install wave-reader

Example Usage

There are various concrete examples available in the examples directory. That includes CLI interaction and other interesting scenarios that demonstrate API usage.

import asyncio
from wave_reader import wave

if __name__ == "__main__":
    # Scan for BTLE Wave devices.
    devices = wave.scan()
    # Event loop to run asynchronous tasks.
    loop = asyncio.new_event_loop()
    # Get sensor readings from available wave devices.
    for d in devices:
        sensor_readings = loop.run_until_complete(d.get_sensor_values())
        print(sensor_readings)

# >>> DeviceSensors (humidity: 32.5, radon_sta: 116, radon_lta: 113 ...

Web API Client Module

The wave_reader/web module in this library provides a client for the Airthings web API. See this page for more details.

Contribution

If you identify a bug, please open a ticket. Pull requests are always welcome.

Testing

You can run the entire test suite by running tox. It will run flake8, isort and pytest. If you'd like to just run unit tests, running pytest ./tests is sufficient.
