Python library for controlling BLEDOM devices

This library is still in development. Functionality hasn't fully been tested yet. If you find bugs or "stub" messages, please create an issue.

Demo Program

This library comes with a demo program.

You can set the color via a matplotlib color name, turn it off, set a brightness.

No param leads to the help message.

python -m [off | color-name | brightness-level [0-100]]

API

Usage

BleakScanner -> BleakClient -> BleLedDevice

import asyncio
from bledom.device import BleLedDevice
from bleak import BleakScanner, BleakClient

async def main():
    for device in await BleakScanner.discover():
        client = BleakClient(device)
        await client.connect()
        device = await BleLedDevice.new(client)
        await device.power_off()

asyncio.run(main())

Device API

Creating a device from with a BleakClient

Reading the Bleak documentation is recommended for connecting to a device manually.

A device connection can be created with a Bleak client. See main.py for an example.

device = BleLedDevice.new(client)

The device will be powered on and have it's time synced on when it gets connected.

Modes

• device.power_on(self)
  Powers on the device
• device.set_color(128, 64, 255)
  Sets a static colour
• device.set_brightness(64)
  Sets a static brightness (0-100)
• device.set_effect(Effects.CROSSFADE_RED_GREEN_BLUE)
  Sets an effect
• device.set_effect_speed(64)
  Sets the effect speed

Time and Schedule

• device.sync_time()
  Syncs the device to the system time. Gets called on connection.
• device.set_custom_time(datetime.now())
  Syncs the device to the given datetime.
• device.set_schedule_on(Days.TUESDAY | Days.THURSDAY, 7, 30, True)
  Schedules LED to turn on on Tuesday and Thursday at 7:30 AM. Set last argument to False to disable.
• device.set_schedule_off(Days.ALL, 0, 0, True)
  Schedules LED to turn off everyday at midnight (12:00 AM). Set last argument to False to disable.

The Days enum has the days MONDAY through SUNDAY as well as WEEK_DAY (Monday through Friday), WEEKEND_DAYS (Saturday and Sunday) and ALL for all days.
