README
> This code is deprecated as [pyvizio](https://github.com/vkorn/pyvizio) has been updated to add sound bar support. Please use the latest pyvizio packages instead of this one.
## Description
Simple cli and API implementation for Vizio SmartCast SoundBars. Mainly created for
integration with [HASS](http://home-assistant.io).
## Installation
### PyPi
```
pip3 install pyviziosoundbar
```
### GitHub Code
Either through pip
```
pip3 install git+https://github.com/raman325/pyviziosoundbar.git@master
```
or checkout repo and run
```
pip3 install -I .
```
## CLI Usage
To avoid repeating IP param, you can add it to environment variables as `VIZIO_SOUNDBAR_IP`
### Pairing
First, find your device (yeah, I'm too lazy to add another cli group)
```
pyviziosoundbar --ip=0 discover
```
and note it's IP address.
### Turning on/off
```
pyviziosoundbar --ip={ip} power {on|off|toggle}
```
To get current power state simply call
```
pyviziosoundbar --ip={ip} power
```
### Volume operations
You could change volume
```
pyviziosoundbar --ip={ip} volume {up|down} amount
```
and get current level (0-100)
```
pyviziosoundbar --ip={ip} volume-current
```
In addition mute command is available
```
pyviziosoundbar --ip={ip} mute {on|off|toggle}
```
### Input sources
You can get current source
```
pyviziosoundbar --ip={ip} input-current
```
List all sources
```
pyviziosoundbar --ip={ip} input-list
```
And using `Name` column from this list switch input
```
pyviziosoundbar --ip={ip} input-set {name}
```
### Control Media
Play media
```
pyviziosoundbar --ip={ip} play
```
Pause media
```
pyviziosoundbar --ip={ip} pause
```
## Contribution
- Thanks to @vkorn whose [pyvizio](https://github.com/vkorn/pyvizio) I used as a base. Most of the code is theirs, including most of this documentation
- Thanks for great research uploaded [here](https://github.com/exiva/Vizio_SmartCast_API) and
absolutely awesome SSDP discovery [snippet](https://gist.github.com/dankrause/6000248)
