## Blue Iris Python Library

An async python library for the Blue Iris JSON API.

## Overview
For more in-depth documentation, visit [the documentation](https://nwesterhausen.github.io/pyblueiris/).

Creating a BlueIris object requires you provide an async web session for it.

```python
import pyblueiris
from aiohttp import ClientSession
import asyncio

PROTOCOL = 'http'
HOST = '192.168.1.5'
USER = 'pyserv'
PASS = 'secret-password'

async def main():
async with ClientSession(raise_for_status=True) as sess:
blue = pyblueiris.BlueIris(sess, USER, PASS, PROTOCOL, HOST)

if __name__ == '__main__':
asyncio.run(main())
```

From there you can simply call a command you want it to execute. There is a command `update_all_information()` which will call all data-gathering commands to fill out information about the server.

```python
def main():
async with ClientSession(raise_for_status=True) as sess:
blue = pyblueiris.BlueIris(sess, USER, PASS, PROTOCOL, HOST)
await blue.update_all_information()
```

All of the information the BlueIris object knows about the server is stored in the attributes property \(dictionary\).

```python
print(blue.attributes)
```
