python-kasa 0.10.2-1

Package Information

DescriptionTP-Link Kasa and Tapo smart home device control

This library discovers and controls supported TP-Link Kasa and Tapo smart home devices. It communicates with devices on the local network, including plugs, wall switches, power strips, bulbs, light strips, cameras, vacuums, hubs, and devices attached through hubs.

It can query device state and configuration, turn devices on or off, and change supported settings such as brightness, color, color temperature, light effects, and switch or outlet state. For devices that expose additional data, it can read information such as signal strength, device time, firmware details, energy usage, and update availability.

The package also provides the kasa command-line interface for network discovery, state inspection, and sending control commands to a selected device. Newer Kasa and Tapo devices that require authentication can be accessed using the device account credentials.
