Python API? #7

Closed schmittx closed 4 years ago

schmittx commented 4 years ago

Great work on the Homebridge plugin, I'd love to get this into Home Assistant as well. Have you considered making a Python API for the Rest/Rest+? I could help with the Home Assistant integration side of it.

dgreif commented 4 years ago

I'm much more comfortable with node than I am with python. I'm happy to answer questions if you decide to port this to python yourself. Also check out https://github.com/Marcus-L/m4rcus.HatchBaby.Rest if you want a C# reference (that's where I got a lot of my initial info for the original Rest)

schmittx commented 4 years ago

Sounds good, I'll look into it and let you know if I have questions.

@schmittx - did you ever get a chance to make the home assistant version? If not, I’m interested in taking it on but didn’t want to reinvent the wheel if you already have something. Got two months before due date so time is fleeting 😜

schmittx commented 4 years ago

@et Unfortunately, no, I never did dive into it. I got sidetracked working on some other Home Assistant custom components. That being said though, I'm still super interested in this and I'll still be glad to help with the Home Assistant integration side of it. Good luck with the kid prep, it'll be here before you know it.

@schmittx @et I'm looking for a home assistant integration for the Hatch Rest as well, if anyone ended up figuring it out.

schmittx commented 4 years ago

@zcampau Same here...

et commented 4 years ago

Baby came sooner than expected so I never had a chance 😁

I would love to see this as well!

Any luck?

schmittx commented 3 years ago

@dgreif I've started a Python port of this but am new to AWS IoT world. I believe I need to connect to the AWS MQTT broker using the creds returned from the cognito-identity call, correct? Then it becomes a normal MQTT publish/subscribe thing? Any idea if I can connect to AWS MQTT using a GUI app to view the topics/messages for troubleshooting?

dgreif commented 3 years ago

@schmittx I don't know of any GUI for AWS MQTT, but I didn't really search for one when I did the initial discovery for this plugin. Once you are connected with the client, it's pretty easy to log all the events coming at you, and you can look through my code to see any communication going up to the MQTT server

@schmittx Any luck with the Python port of this? I didn’t see a repo for it in your GitHub profile.

schmittx commented 2 years ago

@JonLaliberte No, I looked into the AWS MQTT a bit but it was a steep learning curve for me and I didn't have that much time to pursue further.
