pyharmony
Python library for connecting to and controlling the Logitech Harmony Link
Protocol
As the harmony protocol is being worked out, notes are in PROTOCOL.md.
Status
- Authentication to Logitech's web service working.
- Authentication to harmony device working.
- Querying for entire device information
- Sending a simple command to harmony device working.
Usage
To query your device's configuration state:
PYTHONPATH="." python harmony --email user@example.com --password pass \
--harmony_ip 192.168.0.1 show_config
It really helps to assign a static lease and hostname for your harmony on your router interface, so you don't have to keep looking up the IP.
Some other commands you can invoke via command line:
PYTHONPATH="." python harmony --email user@example.com --password pass \
--harmony_ip my_hub_host start_activity 'watch movie'
PYTHONPATH="." python harmony --email user@example.com --password pass \
--harmony_ip my_hub_host sync
PYTHONPATH="." python harmony --email user@example.com --password pass \
--harmony_ip my_hub_host show_current_activity
PYTHONPATH="." python harmony --email user@example.com --password pass \
--harmony_ip my_hub_host turn_off
# to send device commands, look in show_config for the device and
# command name, you can use either the device id or label with --device
#
PYTHONPATH="." python harmony --email user@example.com --password pass \
--harmony_ip my_hub_host send_command --device 'yamaha soundbar' \
--command PowerToggle
For full argument information on the command-line tool:
PYTHONPATH="." python harmony --help
TODO
- Figure out how to detect when the session token expires so we can get a new one.
- Figure out a good way of sending commands based on sync state.
- Is it possible to update device configuration?
