Legrand has deprecated the Legrand Home + Control API and migrated to the Netatmo Connect platform. This library has been updated to support the new Netatmo Connect API.
This is a basic Python library that interacts with the Netatmo Connect Home + Control API. It is primarily intended for integration into Smart Home platforms such as Home Assistant.
More information of the API can be found here: https://dev.netatmo.com/apidocumentation/control
The library currently supports 4 types of Legrand (not Smarther) modules:
The first two - plugs and lights - are modeled as basic switches that can be interacted with to set their status to on or off. Remotes are presented as passive modules that only have a battery level attribute. Automations can be issued commands to open or close to their full positions and to be stopped during the motion.
A 'home' is represented by a plant which presents all of its corresponding modules in a topology. A plant is basically a Home+ Control gateway.
The status of each module in the plant can be accessed through a single status call to the plant or through individual status calls to each module.
The Netatmo Connect Home + Control API uses Oauth2 authentication, so you must first register an account at https://dev.netatmo.com/.
Once registered, you will have to register an Application, where you will have to define a name and a redirect URL.
Once the Application is confirmed, you should receive the CLIENT_IDENTIFIER and the CLIENT_SECRET which you will be using to set up the authentication flows.
Communication with the API, first requires Oauth2 authentication to obtain an access and a refresh token. Subsequent requests to the API will require the use of this access token.
Information about the Oauth2 exchange is provided here: https://dev.netatmo.com/apidocumentation/oauth
Install homepluscontrol
using pip
:
$ pip install homepluscontrol
The following script is a simple example of how this Python library can be used::
from homepluscontrol import authentication, homeplusplant
import asyncio
client_id = 'YOUR_CLIENT_IDENTIFIER'
client_secret = 'YOUR_CLIENT_SECRET'
redirect_uri = 'https://www.example.com'
dummy_token =
{"refresh_token":
"dummy-refresh-token",
"access_token": "dummy-access-token",
"expires_at": -1,
"expires_on": -1}
api_home_data_url = "https://api.netatmo.com/api/homesdata"
# Create the asynchronous client to handle the authentication
# process and the authenticated requests
client = authentication.HomePlusOAuth2Async(client_id,
client_secret,
token=dummy_token,
redirect_uri=redirect_uri)
# The URL returned by this method launches the Oauth2 flow and
# allows a user to confirm the process.
# Doing so redirects the user's browser/client to the redirect URI
# and includes the code and the state for the next step.
authorization_url = client.generate_authorize_url()
print(authorization_url)
# Here is where you can enter the complete redirect URL
return_url = input('Redirect URL received:')
# This function will now handle the asynchronous calls to the API
async def interact_with_api():
token = await client.async_fetch_initial_token(return_url)
print(token)
# The client now has a valid token and can be used
# to interact with the API.
# First get the home data
result = await client.request("get", api_home_data_url)
response_body = await result.json()
homes_info = response_body["body"]
print(homes_info)
home_array = []
for p in homes_info["homes"]:
home_array.append(homeplusplant.HomePlusPlant(p["id"], p, client))
home = home_array[0]
print(home)
# Next read the module information for the plant
await home.update_module_status()
for mod_id in home.modules.keys():
print(home.modules[mod_id])
# Close the client session
await client.oauth_client.close()
loop = asyncio.get_event_loop()
loop.run_until_complete(interact_with_api())
