Xiaomi Chuangmi_ir (Universal IR Remote Controller)

syssi · October 20, 2017, 7:58pm

python-miio>=0.3.0 is unreleased and will be available here soon: https://github.com/rytilahti/python-miio

Just check my last commit a few seconds ago: https://github.com/syssi/chuangmi_ir

lafomit · October 20, 2017, 8:14pm

Yes, I already removed the requirement locally and used the script from rytilahti. Managed just now to see each other but got some issue with config ( i believe token is wrong)

lafomit · October 20, 2017, 9:18pm

So I got it working, but I must say it was some pain in the …
Btw, in my case autodiscovery found the right token for the IR, so no need to play with backups.

thundergreen · October 20, 2017, 11:29pm

wow! PITA but i got the token. is it possible to run this in hassio?

thundergreen · October 20, 2017, 11:52pm

AWESOME!!! got my device today… token was pita as my phone is decrypted but found a way… if needed i will share… but anyway… works well THANKS!!!

teprrr · October 23, 2017, 10:58pm

@thundergreen considering you got it decrypted (with miio-extract-tokens or some other way?), could you help a fellow user in Xiaomi Mi Vacuum Token from iOS? ?

thundergreen · October 25, 2017, 8:40pm

@teprrr It was a kind of PITA… u will have to install java addn zu be able to decrypt the file… i my case my phone was encrypted with a password. I could then decrypt it after addind java addons… just tell me where u r stuck mate

teprrr · October 26, 2017, 8:58pm

@thundergreen I’m not stuck anywhere, but someone on that thread is

Hi is it possible that this component will make it into one of the future official releses of hass?

syssi · November 3, 2017, 1:40pm

The license of the original code is unknown and the code base isn’t really clean. It will need some time to get rid of the dust.

Anyone else having trouble in 0.57? Ideas?

Update: so I fixed the problem.
Updated plugin to version in post 54. But had to change from chuangmi.send_package to chuangmi.send_command in all scripts!

syssi · November 6, 2017, 9:15pm

Where did you download the custom component? The current version doesn’t use python-mirobo anymore. It’s called python-miio now: https://github.com/syssi/chuangmi_ir

Please install the following system requirements:

apt-get install libffi-dev libssl-dev

maciejwr · November 6, 2017, 9:23pm

Its possible install and activate this addon in resinOS https://home-assistant.io/hassio/installation/ ?

jimmibond · November 17, 2017, 3:23pm

this tool helps to decode Base64 string.

thundergreen · November 21, 2017, 11:40am

Is it possible to make this a climate component? Would really appreciate

There are some system dependencies missing. Please install libffi-dev and libssl-dev:

sudo apt-get install libffi-dev libssl-dev

thundergreen · January 9, 2018, 6:10pm
