aioguardian is currently supported on:

• Python 3.6
• Python 3.7
• Python 3.8

Documentation

Complete documentation can be found here: http://aioguardian.readthedocs.io

Usage

import asyncio

from aioguardian import Client
from aioguardian.errors import GuardianError


async with Client("192.168.1.100") as client:
    # Run various commands


asyncio.run(main())

If the mood should strike you, you can manually instantiate a Client object and manage connection to and disconnection from the device yourself:

import asyncio

from aioguardian import Client
from aioguardian.errors import GuardianError


client = Client("192.168.1.100")

await client.connect()

# Run various commands

# Notice that disconnection is via a regular method, not a coroutine:
client.disconnect()


asyncio.run(main())

Commands

Many commands are available:

• client.device.diagnostics(): return diagnostics info from the device
• client.device.factory_reset(): perform a factory reset of the device
• client.device.ping(): ping the device to determine whether it can be reached
• client.device.publish_state(): publish the device state to the Guardian cloud
• client.device.reboot(): reboot the device
• client.device.upgrade_firmware(): initiate a firmware upgrade on the device
• client.device.wifi_configure(): connect the device to an SSID
• client.device.wifi_disable_ap(): disable the device's onboard WiFi access point
• client.device.wifi_enable_ap(): enable the device's onboard WiFi access point
• client.device.wifi_reset(): reset all WiFi info
• client.device.wifi_status(): get information related to the device's WiFi connections
• client.sensor.pair_dump(): get information on all paired sensors
• client.sensor.pair_sensor(): pair a new sensor to the device
• client.sensor.sensor_status(): get information from the device's onboard sensors
• client.valve.valve_close(): close the valve
• client.valve.valve_halt(): halt the valve mid-open or mid-close (be careful!)
• client.valve.valve_open(): open the valve
• client.valve.valve_reset(): reset all valve diagnostics
• client.valve.valve_status(): get information about the device's valve

Response payload samples for each of these commands can be found in the fixtures folder.
