Buy Me A Coffee

`regenmaschine` (German for "rain machine") is a simple, clean, well-tested
Python library for interacting with
[RainMachineâ„¢ smart sprinkler controllers][regenmaschine]. It gives developers an easy
API to manage their controllers over their local LAN or remotely via the RainMachineâ„¢
cloud.

# Remote Access Announcement (2022-06-26)

On June 2, 2022, RainMachine announced a [Premium Services][rainmachine-premium]
addition; under this new model, remote access is _only_ available to subscribers of
these Premium Services.

I do not currently intend to subscribe to Premium Services; as such, the remote access
abilities of `regenmaschine` will remain as-is from here on out unless spurred on by
others. They may stop working at any time. PRs from subscribing users are always
welcome.

# Python Versions

`regenmaschine` is currently supported on:

- Python 3.10
- Python 3.11
- Python 3.12

# Installation

```bash
pip install regenmaschine
```

# Usage

Creating a `regenmaschine` `Client` might be the easiest thing you do all day:

```python
import asyncio

from aiohttp import ClientSession

from regenmaschine import Client

async def main() -> None:
"""Run!"""
client = Client()

# ...

asyncio.run(main())
```

By default, the library creates a new connection to the sprinkler controller with each
coroutine. If you are calling a large number of coroutines (or merely want to squeeze
out every second of runtime savings possible), an [`aiohttp`][aiohttp] `ClientSession` can
be used for connection pooling:

See the module docstrings throughout the library for full info on all parameters, return
types, etc.

```python
import asyncio

from aiohttp import ClientSession

from regenmaschine import Client

async def main() -> None:
"""Run!"""
async with ClientSession() as session:
client = Client(session=session)

asyncio.run(main())
```

## Loading Local (Accessible Over the LAN) Controllers

Once you have a client, you can load a local controller (i.e., one that is
accessible over the LAN) very easily:

```python
import asyncio

from aiohttp import ClientSession

from regenmaschine import Client

async def main() -> None:
"""Run!"""
async with ClientSession() as session:
client = Client(session=session)

await client.load_local("192.168.1.101", "my_password", port=8080, use_ssl=True)

controllers = client.controllers
# >>> {'ab:cd:ef:12:34:56': }

asyncio.run(main())
```

## Loading Remote (Accessible Over the RainMachine Cloud) Controllers

If you have 1, 2 or 100 other local controllers, you can load them in the same
way – `client.controllers` will keep your controllers all organized.

What if you have controllers around the world and can't access them all over
the same local network? No problem! `regenmaschine` allows you to load remote
controllers very easily, as well:

```python
import asyncio

from aiohttp import ClientSession

from regenmaschine import Client

async def main() -> None:
"""Run!"""
async with ClientSession() as session:
client = Client(session=session)

await client.load_remote("[email protected]", "my_password")

controllers = client.controllers
# >>> {'xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx': , ...}

asyncio.run(main())
```

Bonus tip: `client.load_remote` will load _all_ controllers owned by that email
address.

## Using the Controller

Regardless of the type of controller you have loaded (local or remote), the
same properties and methods are available to each:

```python
import asyncio
import datetime

from aiohttp import ClientSession

from regenmaschine import Client

async def main() -> None:
"""Run!"""
async with ClientSession() as session:
client = Client(session=session)

# Load a local controller:
await client.load_local("192.168.1.101", "my_password", port=8080, use_ssl=True)

# Load all remote controllers associated with an account:
await client.load_remote("[email protected]", "my_password")

# They all act the same! The only difference is that remote API calls
# will pass through the RainMachineâ„¢ cloud:
for mac_address, controller in client.controllers:
# Print some client properties:
print(f"Name: {controller.name}")
print(f"Host: {controller.host}")
print(f"MAC Address: {controller.mac}")
print(f"API Version: {controller.api_version}")
print(f"Software Version: {controller.software_version}")
print(f"Hardware Version: {controller.hardware_version}")

diagnostics = await controller.diagnostics.current()

# Get all weather parsers:
parsers = await controller.parsers.current()

# Get a specific program:
program_1 = await controller.programs.get(1)

# Enable or disable a specific program:
await controller.programs.enable(1)
await controller.programs.disable(1)

# Get the next run time for all programs:
runs = await controller.programs.next()

# Get all running programs:
programs = await controller.programs.running()

# Start and stop a program:
await controller.programs.start(1)
await controller.programs.stop(1)

# Get basic details about all zones:

# Get advanced details about a specific zone:
zone_1 = await controller.zones.get(1, details=True)

# Enable or disable a specific zone:
await controller.zones.enable(1)
await controller.zones.disable(1)

# Start a zone for 60 seconds:
await controller.zones.start(1, 60)

# ...and stop it:
await controller.zones.stop(1)

# Get all running zones:
programs = await controller.zones.running()

# Get the device name:
name = await controller.provisioning.device_name

# Get all provisioning settings:

# Set universal restrictions – note that the payload is the same structure
# as returned by controller.restrictions.universal():
await controller.restrictions.set_universal(
{
"hotDaysExtraWatering": False,
"freezeProtectEnabled": True,
}
)

# Get watering stats:
today = await controller.stats.on_date(datetime.date.today())
upcoming_days = await controller.stats.upcoming(details=True)

# Get info on various watering activities not already covered:
log = await controller.watering.log(datetime.date.today(), 2)
queue = await controller.watering.queue()
runs = await controller.watering.runs(datetime.date.today())

# Pause all watering activities for 30 seconds:
await controller.watering.pause_all(30)

# Unpause all watering activities:
await controller.watering.unpause_all()

# Stop all watering activities:
await controller.watering.stop_all()

# See if a firmware update is available:
update_data = await controller.machine.get_firmware_update_status()
# ...and request the update:
update_data = await controller.machine.update_firmware()

# Reboot the controller:
update_data = await controller.machine.reboot()

# Return the current flow meter data:
flowmeter = await controller.watering.flowmeter()

# Add values to flowmeter counters from an external smart water meter
# not wired directly to the controller.
# Units can be "clicks", "gal", "m3" and "litre".
await controller.watering.post_flowmeter({"value": 2000, "units": "clicks"})

asyncio.run(main())
```

# Loading Controllers Multiple Times

It is technically possible to load a controller multiple times. Let's pretend
for a moment that:

- We have a local controller named `Home` (available at `192.168.1.101`).
- We have a remote controller named `Grandma's House`.
- Both controllers live under our email address: `[email protected]`

If we load them thus:

```python
import asyncio

from aiohttp import ClientSession

from regenmaschine import Client

async def main() -> None:
"""Run!"""
async with ClientSession() as session:
client = Client(session=session)

# Load "Home" locally:
await client.load_local("192.168.1.101", "my_password")

# Load all of my controllers remotely:
await client.load_remote("[email protected]", "my_password")

asyncio.run(main())
```

...then we will have the following:

1. `Home` will be a `LocalController` and accessible over the LAN.
2. `Grandma's House` will be a `RemoteController` and accessible only over the
RainMachineâ„¢ cloud.

Notice that `regenmaschine` is smart enough to not overwrite a controller that
already exists: even though `Home` exists as a remote controller owned by
`[email protected]`, it had already been loaded locally. By default,
`regenmaschine` will only load a controller if it hasn't been loaded before
(locally _or_ remotely). If you want to change this behavior, both `load_local`
and `load_remote` accept an optional `skip_existing` parameter:

```python
import asyncio

from aiohttp import ClientSession

from regenmaschine import Client

async def main() -> None:
"""Run!"""
async with ClientSession() as session:
client = Client(session=session)

# Load all of my controllers remotely:
await client.load_remote("[email protected]", "my_password")

# Load "Home" locally, overwriting the existing remote controller:
await client.load_local("192.168.1.101", "my_password", skip_existing=False)

asyncio.run(main())
```
