class platypush.plugins.switch.wemo.SwitchWemoPlugin(devices=None, netmask: Optional[str] = None, port: int = 49153, **kwargs)[source]

Plugin to control a Belkin WeMo smart switches (https://www.belkin.com/us/Products/home-automation/c/wemo-home-automation/)

Requires:

  • requests (pip install requests)

Parameters

  • devices (list or dict) – List of IP addresses or name->address map containing the WeMo Switch devices to control. This plugin previously used ouimeaux for auto-discovery but it’s been dropped because 1. too slow 2. too heavy 3. auto-discovery failed too often.

  • netmask – Alternatively to a list of static IP->name pairs, you can specify the network mask where the devices should be scanned (e.g. ‘192.168.1.0/24’)

  • port – Port where the WeMo devices are expected to expose the RPC/XML over HTTP service (default: 49153)
