Client Library for Deebot devices (Vacuums)

IMPORTANT: Contribution only

This project is maintained in our spare time. Please be patient and respectful.

It's not related to Ecovacs or Deebot and we don't get any support from them.

As all is reverse engineered it might take some time to add new features and we can't guarantee that all features will be added.

Unfortunately some people think we are paid to do this and get angry if things don't work as they expect. As result of this, we decided that this project is in a contribution only mode.

This means, if you want something to be supported/added, you have to provide a fix yourself, wait for someone else to fix it or pay someone to do it. Members will still review and help on pull requests.

Installation

If you have a recent version of Python 3, you should be able to do pip install deebot-client to get the most recently released version of this.

Usage

To get started, you'll need to have already set up an EcoVacs account using your smartphone.

You are welcome to try using this as a python library for other efforts. A simple usage might go something like this:

import aiohttp
import asyncio
import logging
import time

from deebot_client.api_client import ApiClient
from deebot_client.authentication import Authenticator, create_rest_config
from deebot_client.commands.json.clean import Clean, CleanAction
from deebot_client.events import BatteryEvent
from deebot_client.mqtt_client import MqttClient, create_mqtt_config
from deebot_client.util import md5
from deebot_client.device import Device

device_id = md5(str(time.time()))
account_id = "your email or phonenumber (cn)"
password_hash = md5("yourPassword")
country = "DE"


async def main():
  async with aiohttp.ClientSession() as session:
    logging.basicConfig(level=logging.DEBUG)
    rest_config = create_rest_config(session, device_id=device_id, alpha_2_country=country)

    authenticator = Authenticator(rest_config, account_id, password_hash)
    api_client = ApiClient(authenticator)

    devices_ = await api_client.get_devices()

    bot = Device(devices_.mqtt[0], authenticator)

    mqtt_config = create_mqtt_config(device_id=device_id, country=country)
    mqtt = MqttClient(mqtt_config, authenticator)
    await bot.initialize(mqtt)

    async def on_battery(event: BatteryEvent):
      # Do stuff on battery event
      if event.value == 100:
        # Battery full
        pass

    # Subscribe for events (more events available)
    bot.events.subscribe(BatteryEvent, on_battery)

    # Execute commands
    await bot.execute_command(Clean(CleanAction.START))
    await asyncio.sleep(900)  # Wait for...
    await bot.execute_command(Charge())


if __name__ == '__main__':
  loop = asyncio.get_event_loop()
  loop.create_task(main())
  loop.run_forever()

Note for Windows users

This library cannot be used out of the box with Windows due a limitation in the requirement aiomqtt. More information and a workaround can be found here
