dyson-mqtt-listen

A quick tool for listening to Dyson devices over MQTT

Installation

Using "go install"

If you happen to have Go installed, you can just use it to install.

go install github.com/dotvezz/dyson-mqtt-listen/cmd/dyson-mqtt-listen@latest

Without "go install"

You can download the executable binary file for your platform in this repository's releases.

Running the tool

Once you've downloaded or installed the binary, run it with the correct flags for your device.

Devices with wifi stickers:

Use the flag -address (The IP address of your device on your network), with -ssid, and -wifi-password using values from your sticker.

Devices without wifi stickers:

Use the flag -address with -serial, -password, and -device. Use the get_devices.py script in libdyson-neon to find the correct values.

# if you used `go install`
dyson-mqtt-listen -address "192.168.1.207" -ssid "DYSON-NM7-US-REA2128R-475" -wifi-password "zxcvasdf" 

# if you downloaded the linux binary
chmod +r ./dyson-mqtt-listen
./dyson-mqtt-listen -address "192.168.1.207" -ssid "DYSON-NM7-US-REA2128R-475" -wifi-password "zxcvasdf" 

# if you downloaded the macOS binary
