error issuing get command

[benjaminfrombe]

I can use the list and set commands, but I can't use the get command, Any idea what could be wrong ?

./pcomfortcloud.py user@na.me $password$ get 1 reading from device 'Bedroom' (c06e5ccb6886fa8eb0e8a18b432402f0f35ee847d6315fe9dd92d4bbaef9d0dd) Traceback (most recent call last): File "./pcomfortcloud.py", line 5, in main.main() File "/html/panasonic/pcomfortcloud/main.py", line 218, in main print_result( session.get_device(device['id']) ) File "/html/panasonic/pcomfortcloud/session.py", line 268, in get_device raise ResponseError(response.status_code, response.text) File "/html/panasonic/pcomfortcloud/session.py", line 43, in init self.text = json.loads(text) File "/usr/lib/python3.6/json/init.py", line 354, in loads return _default_decoder.decode(s) File "/usr/lib/python3.6/json/decoder.py", line 339, in decode obj, end = self.raw_decode(s, idx=_w(s, 0).end()) File "/usr/lib/python3.6/json/decoder.py", line 357, in raw_decode raise JSONDecodeError("Expecting value", s, err.value) from None json.decoder.JSONDecodeError: Expecting value: line 1 column 1 (char 0)

It fails in get_device and I'm thinking this is access right issue. The response code is not 200 but something else, but the error report fails since the body isn't JSON.

I will fix the error report, but the reason behind your issue is still unknown.

Are you able to access the device in the app with the same user and password?

I just downloaded and tried this module and after some initial troubles I got it to work. I can similarly use list and set but the get command comes up with a different error:

Is this related or is it a different error?

[lostfields]

@MatthK different issue, looks like you have a NanoeMode 4 we haven't seen before. What model do you have?

You may edit constants.py and replace the last block with

class NanoeMode(Enum):
    Unavailable = 0
    Off = 1
    On = 2
    Unknown = 3
    Unknown2 = 4

[MatthK]

It's a Panasonic CS-E12VKA.

And wow, that did the trick.

Is there somewhere an API description on how to access the comfort cloud? I came across this module when I searched for an API as I ideally would like to integrate it into my custom made "homepage". I want to create a page with some Javascript to get and send the JSON. Alternatively I can try to trigger this module, but I am thinking it might be easier and more elegant if I could send the commands directly, hence the understanding of the API. Since I don't know Python, it might take a bit to understand how your module works.

May you open the Comfort Cloud app and see what mode you have for nanoe or eco? Normally it's just a toggle but I'm starting to think that your model is reporting a combo value. If it's not activated you can do that under "Device list" (hamburger menu).

The module is simple enough and is just using http-requests, take a look at https://github.com/lostfields/python-panasonic-comfort-cloud/blob/master/requests.http using VSCode with extension humao.rest-client

[MatthK]

The nanoe as well as the ECONAVI was disabled. I have enabled both now and ran the get again. But the nanoe still shows "Unkown2".

And thanks for the link. That looks quite promising.

[lostfields]

Hmm, the product page says something about Nanoe-X and Nanoe-G, can you toggle them with the remote? and dump the value to see if it changes?

1: Off 2: Nanoe-X 3: Nanoe-G or Nanoe-G/Nanoe-X 4: Nanoe-G or Nanoe-G/Nanoe-X

[MatthK]

When I turn it off, it shows as Off. When I turn it on, it shows as Unknown2. I don't have any other option.
