Introduction

This is a Python 3.5+ module aiming to interact with the Chamberlain MyQ API.

Code is licensed under the MIT license.

Getting Started

Installation

pip install pymyq

Usage

pymyq starts within an aiohttp ClientSession:

import asyncio

from aiohttp import ClientSession


async def main() -> None:
    """Create the aiohttp session and run."""
    async with ClientSession() as websession:
      # YOUR CODE HERE


asyncio.get_event_loop().run_until_complete(main())

To get all MyQ devices associated with an account:

import asyncio

from aiohttp import ClientSession

import pymyq


async def main() -> None:
    """Create the aiohttp session and run."""
    async with ClientSession() as websession:
      # Valid Brands: 'chamberlain', 'craftsman', 'liftmaster', 'merlin'
      myq = await pymyq.login('<EMAIL>', '<PASSWORD>', '<BRAND>', websession)

      # Return only cover devices:
      devices = await myq.get_devices()

      # Return *all* devices:
      devices = await myq.get_devices(covers_only=False)


asyncio.get_event_loop().run_until_complete(main())

Device Properties

  • brand: the brand of the device
  • device_id: the device's MyQ ID
  • parent_id: the device's parent device's MyQ ID
  • name: the name of the device
  • available: if device is online
  • serial: the serial number of the device
  • state: the device's current state
  • type: the type of MyQ device
  • open_allowed: if device can be opened unattended
  • close_allowed: if device can be closed unattended

Methods

All of the routines on the MyQDevice class are coroutines and need to be awaited.

  • close: close the device
  • open: open the device
  • update: get the latest device state (which can then be accessed via the state property). Retrieval of state from cloud is will only be done if more then 5 seconds has elapsed since last request. State for all devices is retrieved through (1) request.
  • close_connection: close web session connection, will only close the web session if none was provided initially
