py-beward

Python API for Beward Cameras and Doorbells. This is used in Home Assistant component but should be generic enough that can be used elsewhere.

Installation

pip install beward

Usage example

Discovery devices:

from beward import Beward


for dev in Beward.discovery().values():
    print(f"Found device \"{dev.name}\" at http://{dev.host_ip}:{dev.http_port}")

Initialize one device and listen for events:

import time

from beward import Beward
from beward.const import ALARM_ONLINE, ALARM_MOTION, ALARM_SENSOR


def handler(device, timestamp, alarm, state):
    print('Handling alarm "%s". State: %d' % (alarm, state))


DEVICE_HOST = '192.168.1.100'
DEVICE_USER = 'admin'
DEVICE_PASS = 'password'

bwd = Beward.factory(DEVICE_HOST, DEVICE_USER, DEVICE_PASS, stream=1)
bwd.add_alarms_handler(handler)
bwd.listen_alarms(alarms=(ALARM_ONLINE, ALARM_MOTION, ALARM_SENSOR))

print('Live image URL:', bwd.live_image_url)
print('RTSP live video URL:', bwd.rtsp_live_video_url)
print('Live image:', bwd.camera_image())

for decade in range(10):
    print('Time: %ds' % (decade * 10))
    time.sleep(10)
print('Bye')
