NeoHubAPI

This is a simple python wrapper around Heatmiser's Neohub API. Up-to-date documentation for the API can be obtained from the Heatmiser Developer Portal. You will need to sign up for a free account.

The primary purpose of this module is to help with Home Assistant integration but it can also be used as a standalone library for other projects.

Connection methods

The API provides two connection methods. The so-called "legacy" method is by way of an unencrypted connection to port 4242 of the Neohub. The newer method uses an encrypted websocket on port 4243, but only works on a second generation hub (look for the sticker on the back).

To use the websocket connection, you need to obtain a token from the Heatmiser Neo app. Go to Settings > API > + in the app and create one.

On newer hubs, the legacy connection may be disabled by default. If you want to use it, go to Settings > API in the app, and enable it from there.

Usage example

import asyncio
import neohubapi.neohub as neohub


async def run():
    # Legacy connection
    hub = neohub.NeoHub()
    # Or, for a websocket connection:
    # hub = neohub.Neohub(port=4243, token='xxx-xxxxxxx')
    system = await hub.get_system()
    hub_data = await hub.get_devices_data()
    devices = hub_data['neo_devices']
    for device in devices:
        print(f"Temperature in zone {device.name}: {device.temperature}")
        await device.identify()


asyncio.run(run())
