TuyaPower2MQTT - PyPi Module

Author: Phill Healey https://github.com/codeclinic/TuyaPower2MQTT

Description

Python module to pull power and state data from Tuya / Smart Life / Jinvoo WiFi smart socket/switch devices. Tested on RaspberryPi, Linux, Windows 10 and MacOS.

Compatible with Home Assistant.

Preparation

All python dependencies for TuyaPower2MQTT will be automatically installed. However, you may need to install python-crypto via apt/yum/etc. If this is your first pip package then you may also need to install python-pip.

 sudo apt-get install python-crypto python-pip		

You'll need a Mosquitto (MQTT) server to publish the data to. If you don't already have one running, I recommend following this simple tutorial: Installing an MQTT server on Debian. Note, you can try installing MQTT without adding the repo suggested in the first step.

Functions

• deviceInfo - Poll device and return on, w, mA, V and err data.

tuyapower.deviceInfo(PLUGID, PLUGIP, PLUGKEY, PLUGVERS)

Usage

Gathers full power stats / data from Tuya sockets & switches and reports results as JSON via MQTT

Full details coming soon.
