This library does not yet support all Mi Home devices that speak the miIO protocol.
The command line application can help with discovering if a device speaks the miIO protocol. Get started by installing the command line application:
npm install -g miio
Run the app in discovery mode to list devices on your network:
miio discover
This will start outputting all of the devices found, with their address, identifiers, models and tokens (if found). If your device can be supported it will show up in this list. You might need to figure out if the IP of your device to be able to find it easily.
If the device shows up feel free to open an issue about supporting the device. Include this information:
- The name of the device model - such Mi Air Purifier or Mi Smart Power Strip 2
- The model id from the output
- If the token for the device displayed N/A or a hex value (don't include the hex value)
If a device can be supported the next step is to figure out what commands the device supports. You can help by either forking this repository and implementing the device or by opening an issue with information about what the device seems to support.
In certain cases its possible to find documentation or someone that has already done most of the work figuring out what commands a device supports.
Most often this involves more advanced steps like packet capturing via a local Android emulator. Details about that can be found under Protocol and commands if you feel up for it.
If you really want a device to be supported it's possible to contact the author of this library to discuss donating a device. Be aware that this is not a guarantee that this library will support the device as sometimes it might not be possible to figure out how to support a device.
