Python control for Avion bluetooth dimmers and switches

A simple Python API for controlling Avi-on Bluetooth dimmers and switches. This code makes use of the PyBT2 branch of Mike Ryan's PyBT and depends on csrmesh.

Example use

This will connect and set the dimmer output to 50%. The second argument to the constructor is the network key which can be obtained by running:

curl -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"email": "fakename@example.com", "password": "password"}' https://admin.avi-on.com/api/sessions | jq

replacing the email and password fields with your Avion credentials. The "passphrase" field is the network key.

import avion

dimmer = avion.avion("00:21:4d:00:00:01", "O5bb9/ab8NvaDMnKYjpTGQ==")
dimmer.connect()
dimmer.set_brightness(0x80)

Specifying a device

Despite specifying a MAC address, the code above will set brightness on every Avi-on dimmer on the local mesh network. To control just one device, specify its object ID (integer starting from 1).

import avion

dimmer = avion.avion("00:21:4d:00:00:01", "O5bb9/ab8NvaDMnKYjpTGQ==")
dimmer.connect()

# Set device 1 to 50% brightness.
dimmer.set_brightness(0x80, 1)

# Set device 2 to 100% brightness.
dimmer.set_brightness(0xff, 2)
