A library for communicating with devices that use the Tuya cloud network. These devices are branded under many different names, but if your device works with the TuyaSmart app or port 6668 is open on your device chances are this library will work.
npm install codetheweb/tuyapi
const device = new TuyAPI({
id: 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx',
key: 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx',
ip: 'xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx',
persistentConnection: true});
device.on('connected',() => {
console.log('Connected to device.');
});
device.on('disconnected',() => {
console.log('Disconnected from device.');
});
device.on('data', data => {
console.log('Data from device:', data);
const status = data.dps['1'];
console.log('Current status:', status);
device.set({set: !status}).then(result => {
console.log('Result of setting status:', result);
});
});
device.on('error',(err) => {
console.log('Error: ' + err);
});
device.connect();
// Disconnect after 10 seconds
setTimeout(() => { device.disconnect(); }, 10000);const TuyAPI = require('tuyapi');
const device = new TuyAPI({
id: 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx',
key: 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx',
ip: 'xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx'});
device.get().then(status => {
console.log('Status:', status);
device.set({set: !status}).then(result => {
console.log('Result of setting status to ' + !status + ': ' + result);
device.get().then(status => {
console.log('New status:', status);
return;
});
});
});This should report the current status, set the device to the opposite of what it currently is, then report the changed status. The above examples will work with smart plugs; they may need some tweaking for other types of devices.
See the setup instructions for how to find the needed parameters.
- Only one TCP connection can be in use with a device at once. If using this, do not have the app on your phone open.
- Some devices ship with older firmware that may not work with
tuyapi. If you're experiencing issues, please try updating the device's firmware in the official app.
