Integrate with Tuya Smart Outlets (dimmers/switches) to group and control lights

Tuya Smart Light API

Developed to integrate with my home automation and control individual switches rather than smart lights

Works with Tuya Devices (GHome, TREATLIFE, MOES, OHMAX, etc)

• a simple Python Flask API
• manages the list of devices with an Postgres Db
• integrates with registered Tuya smart devices
  • currently only works with Outlet Device types
  • turn lights on/off
  • return status of existing device
  • organize devices into groups
  • scan for newly added devices and register with a group

Development

• must have Docker Desktop or equivalent container tool
  • start docker docker compose up
  • utilizes Postgres database
  • execute sql table migrations using Flyway
• install dependencies
  • pip install -r requirements.txt
  • pip install -r requirements_test.txt
• start app python app.py
• create a settings.json file for config (example below)
  • "development": true,
