Dears,
Im planning to move home-assistant from smartthings but i want to make sure the below devices supported
Wifiplug
Jinvoo Smart (Cheap plug)
Sensibo
if not how can i add them ?
For Jinvoo Smart, we need a Python module to interface with them. The protocol has been partially figured out, there is a node module for this GitHub - codetheweb/tuyapi: 🌧 An easy-to-use API for devices that use Tuya's cloud services. Documentation: https://codetheweb.github.io/tuyapi.
That logic could be put into a Python script (I have something mostly working, I actually had problems running tuyapi).
If you want to pitching, take a look at Automatically aquire needed parameters · Issue #2 · codetheweb/tuyapi · GitHub
I’ve implemented basic support for Jinvoo switches, see https://github.com/clach04/python-tuya
NOTE getting the key and id is sort of a pain.
How do I incorporate the work by clach04 into my HA installation?
Check out:
I was not able to fins a file called tuya.py in your repository. If I understand the instructions properly, I need to out tuya.py in the custom_components/switch directory and add the annotation in my config.
All I get is this
Failed config
General Errors:
- Platform not found: switch.tuya
@stevendom57 Just saw this! I’ve not tried using the HA component. I would imagine its looking for pytuya, which it would pickup from dependencies from the init.py file (in Python a directory with a file like that is considered the same as the name of the dir but with a .py on the end).
If you are interested in the plugin, the PR is the place to comment (e.g. you could help with documentation if things are not clear).
Hi. I just recently moved to HA and already had a plug controlled by Jinvoo. Anybody figured this out?
Thanks in advance!
Thanks. Figured that out. I’ve made the change at the GitHub page but still it’s not updated. You need to add jinvoo_smart to the platform variable
