Getting data from a device is not working #93

Closed awaismun closed 3 years ago

awaismun commented 3 years ago

I am trying to get data from a device but tuya-cli does not seem to work. This is what I have tried so far:

tuya-cli get --id xxxxx --key xxxxx --ip 192.168.1.7 --all

This is not returning anything. Absolutely nothing.

Then I tried only this:

tuya-cli get --id xxxxx --key xxxxx --all

Response: Error: find() timed out. Is the device powered on and the ID or IP correct?

Then I tried PING 192.168.1.7 and got response from the device.

Last I tried this:

tuya-cli get --id xxxxxx --key xxxxx --ip 192.168.1.7 ----protocol-version 3.3

Response: true

What am I missing and why am I not getting the correct response?

What am I missing and why am I not getting the correct response?

Sorry, not understanding the question. Looks like the last command returns a correct response.

If you're asking why find() isn't working, it's usually due to how your network is set up. I generally find it more reliable to configure my Tuya devices with a static IP and always specify the IP in my configs / scripts.

Thanks for your reply.

Then this should work? This is what I have been trying for many hours now:

tuya-cli get --id xxxxx --key xxxxx --ip 192.168.1.7 --all

This does not give any reponse. Keeps going for hours.

When both the ID and IP are specified, you must specify the protocol version as well (defaults to 3.1).

In your first post, it looked like tuya-cli get --id xxxxxx --key xxxxx --ip 192.168.1.7 --protocol-version 3.3 was working. Add --all to that and it should work.
