======================
Node package to control newer Samsung Smart TVs models (2016 and up).
To connect to a Samsung TV you need to know its mac and host address. Once it is connected you can send key commands to it:
import {SamsungTV} from 'samsungtv'
const TV = new SamsungTV('192.168.1.2', '5c:49:7d:cc:89:7b')
await TV.connect()
await TV.sendKey('KEY_VOLUP')
await TV.sendKey('KEY_VOLUP')
await TV.sendKey('KEY_VOLUP')
await TV.sendKey('KEY_VOLDOWN')
await TV.sendKey('KEY_VOLDOWN')
await TV.sendKey('KEY_VOLDOWN')
await TV.sendKey('KEY_POWER')
await TV.sendKey('KEY_POWER')
await TV.disconnect()You can also discover Samsung Smart TVs in your network using the discover class method. It uses the UPNP
protocol to lookup services:
import {SamsungTV} from 'samsungtv'
const TVs = await SamsungTV.discover()
console.log(`There are ${TVs.length} Samsung Smart TVs connected to this network`)
const TV = TVs[0]
// specify token
// TV.token = 'XXXXXX'
const devInfo = await TV.getDeviceInfo();
const macaddress = devInfo.device.wifiMac;
// save it to further turn on tv
// await TV.wol(macaddress);
await TV.connect()
console.log('this is the token to save somewere', TV.token)
// ...
return TV.disconnect()The connection is done via SSL and requires confirmation via the tv, after confirmation is done a token in saved that can be used in further connections.
