You don’t need that advanced method. Just go to integrations in the configuration section of the sidebar, hit the plus, search for “roomba”, and click on it. It should walk you through it.

Host:

BLID:

Password:

You’re already inside of the Python command prompt. You should do windows key + r, type CMD, press enter, and then run the commands.

Here is what i am getting with CMD prompt, sorry for my ignorance.
But thank you for your help.

You need to download the scripts first. Run this in order:

pip install git+https://github.com/NickWaterton/Roomba980-Python.git
curl --output roomba.py https://raw.githubusercontent.com/NickWaterton/Roomba980-Python/master/roomba/getpassword.py
python roomba.py

Please look at my CMD response so sorry for all of this.

Now run this:

del roomba.py
curl --output roombapass.py https://raw.githubusercontent.com/NickWaterton/Roomba980-Python/master/roomba/getpassword.py
python roombapass.py

Oh, actually, you also need to install Git:

Try installing node.js, then running these commands:

npm install dorita980
notepad roomba.js

Paste this in the window that opened:

var dorita980 = require('dorita980');

dorita980.getRobotIP((ierr, ip) => {
  console.log(ip);
}

Press ctrl+s, then close the window. Now type this in the command line:

node roomba.js

NOTE: you need to replace the content in the next line with something else.

npx get-roomba-password [INSERT THE OUTPUT FROM THE PREVIOUS COMMAND]

What happens?

Oops. Run everything after npm install dorita980, and change the thing you put in roomba.js to

var dorita980 = require('dorita980');

dorita980.getRobotIP((ierr, ip)) => {
  console.log(ip);
}
17

Is the roomba communication local? I just ordered one… wondering what hurdles I’ll have.

The iOT class is Local Push.
