> pymee is the backbone of the [Home Assistant homee integration](https://github.com/FreshlyBrewedCode/hacs-homee).

pymee is an unofficial python library for interacting with the [homee](https://hom.ee) smart home/home automation platform. It uses the [websockets](https://github.com/aaugustin/websockets) library to connect to a local homee cube and maintains a list of nodes (devices), attributes, groups, users and more that are updated whenever new data arrives from homee.

Large parts of this library are directly ported from the awesome [homeeApi](https://github.com/stfnhmplr/homee-api) javascript library.

## Installation

Install from [PyPI](https://pypi.org/project/pymee/):

```
pip install pymee
```

## Usage

### Getting started

pymee should be used with `asyncio`:

```python
from pymee import Homee
import asyncio
import logging

# Set debug level so we get verbose logs
logging.getLogger().setLevel(logging.DEBUG)

# Define a simple async entry point function
async def main():
# Create an instance of Homee
homee = Homee("", "", "")

# Connect and start listening on a new task
homeeTask = asyncio.create_task(homee.run())

# Wait until the connection is live and all data has been received
await homee.wait_until_connected()

# Do something here...

# Close the connection and wait until we are disconnected
homee.disconnect()
await homee.wait_until_disconnected()

# Start our entry point function
asyncio.run(main())
```

### Access devices and attributes

Devices are represented as "nodes" in the api. All nodes are available in the list `Homee.nodes` and are represented by the `HomeeNode` class.
Each node has a list of attributes accessible from `HomeeNode.attributes`. The attributes on a node represent the different attributes on a device, i.e. if a light is turned on or the target temperature of a thermostat. Attributes can be identified by the `HomeeAttribute.type` property. You can compare the type with the values from `pymee.const.AttributeType` to figure out what each attribute represents. The value can be accessed with the `HomeeAttribute.current_value` property.

If you need to change the value of an attribute you can use `Homee.set_value()`:

```python
# Get some node, for example using get_node_by_id
node = homee.get_node_by_id(5)

# Turn on the device. You need to pass the id of the node and the attribute as well as the value.
# Using get_attribute_by_type you can quickly find the desired attribute.
await homee.set_value(node.id, node.get_attribute_by_type(AttributeType.ON_OFF).id, 1)
```

### Receiving updates

The `Homee` class can be inherited to receive events:

```python
class MyHomee(Homee):
# Called once the websocket connection has been established.
async def on_connected(self):
pass

# Called after the websocket connection has been closed.
async def on_disconnected(self):
pass

# Called after an error has occurred.
async def on_error(self, error: str):
pass

# Called when the websocket receives a message.
# The message is automatically parsed from json into a dictionary.
async def on_message(self, msg: dict):
pass

# Called when an 'attribute' message was received and an attribute was updated.
# Contains the parsed json attribute data and the corresponding node instance.
async def on_attribute_updated(self, attribute_data: dict, node: HomeeNode):
pass
```

You can also add a listener to specific nodes to receive attribute updates:

```python
# A listener is just a function that takes a node and an attribute
def my_node_handler(node: HomeeNode, attribute: HomeeAttribute):
logging.info(f"Attribute {attribute.id} of node {node.name} was updated!")

node = homee.get_node_by_id(5)

# Adding the listener will return a function that can be called to remove the listener again
remove_listener = node.add_on_changed_listener(my_node_handler)

# If you don't need the listener anymore...
remove_listener()
```

To manually request updates from Homee, you can use the following functions:

```python
homee.update_node(self, nodeId: int)
"""Request current data for a node."""

homee.update_attribute(self, nodeId: int, attributeId: int)
"""Request current data for an attribute"""
```

### More examples

Example implementation that dumps all info into a json file and logs whenever a light is turned on or off:

```python
from pymee.const import NodeProfile, AttributeType
from pymee.model import HomeeAttribute

class JsonHomee(Homee):
async def on_message(self, msg: dict):
# Homee sends an "all" message at the beginning of each connection
# or after 'GET:all' was send.
if list(msg)[0] == "all":
f = open("homee.json", "w")
f.write(json.dumps(msg))
f.close()

async def on_attribute_updated(self, attribute_data, node):
# Wrap the attribute data with the HomeeAttribute class for easier access
attribute = HomeeAttribute(attribute_data)

# We only care for changes
if attribute.current_value == attribute.target_value:
return

# Check node profile (the type of device) and attribute type
if (
node.profile == NodeProfile.DIMMABLE_EXTENDED_COLOR_LIGHT
and attribute.type == AttributeType.ON_OFF
):
self._log(
f"[Light] {node.name} turned {'on' if attribute.target_value == 1 else 'off'}"
)
```
