Python module to interface with Tuya WiFi smart devices

Description

This python module controls and reads state of Tuya compatible WiFi Smart Devices (Plugs, Switches, Lights, Window Covers, etc.) using the local area network (LAN) or the cloud (TuyaCloud API). This is a compatible replacement for the pytuya PyPI module and currently supports Tuya Protocols 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, 3.4 and 3.5.

Tuya devices are designed to communicate with the TuyaCloud but most also expose a local area network API. This allows us to directly control the devices without using the cloud. This python module provides a way to poll status and issue commands to these devices.

TinyTuya can also connect to the Tuya Cloud to poll status and issue commands to Tuya devices.

TinyTuya Diagram

# Example Usage of TinyTuya
import tinytuya

d = tinytuya.OutletDevice('DEVICE_ID_HERE', 'IP_ADDRESS_HERE', 'LOCAL_KEY_HERE')
d.set_version(3.3)
data = d.status() 
print('Device status: %r' % data)

NOTE: Devices need to be activated by Smart Life App.

TinyTuya Installation

# Install TinyTuya
python -m pip install tinytuya

Pip will attempt to install cryptography, requests and colorama if not already installed.

Tuya Device Preparation

Controlling and monitoring Tuya devices on your network requires the following:

  • Address - Network address (IPv4) of the device e.g. 10.0.1.100
  • Device ID - Unique identifier for the Tuya device
  • Version - Tuya protocol version used (3.1, 3.2, 3.3, 3.4 or 3.5)
  • Local_Key - Security key needed to access the Tuya device. See Setup Wizard to get these keys.

Network Scanner

TinyTuya has a built in network scanner that can be used to find Tuya Devices on your local network. It will show Address, Device ID and Version for each device. Your LAN and firewall will need to allow UDP (6666, 6667 and 7000) and TCP (6668) traffic.

python -m tinytuya scan

Setup Wizard - Getting Local Keys

TinyTuya has a built-in setup Wizard that uses the Tuya IoT Cloud Platform to generate a JSON list (devices.json) of all your registered devices, including secret Local_Key and Name of your devices. Follow the steps below:

  1. PAIR - Download the Smart Life App or Tuya Smart App, available for iPhone or Android. Set up your SmartLife account and pair all of your Tuya devices (this is important as you cannot access a device that has not been paired).

  2. SCAN (Optional) - Run the TinyTuya scan to get a list of Tuya devices on your network. It will show device Address, Device ID and Version number (3.x):

    python -m tinytuya scan
    

    NOTE: You will need to use one of the displayed Device IDs for step 4.

  3. TUYA ACCOUNT - Set up a Tuya Account (see PDF Instructions):

    • NOTE: Tuya often changes their portal and services. Please open an issue with screenshots if we need to update these instructions.
    • Create a Tuya Developer account on iot.tuya.com. When it asks for the "Account Type", select "Skip this step..." (see screenshot).
    • Click on "Cloud" icon -> "Create Cloud Project"
      1. Pick the correct Data Center "Region" for your location (check HERE to find your Region). This will be used by TinyTuya Wizard (screenshot).
      2. Skip the configuration wizard but remember the Authorization Key: API ID and Secret for below (screenshot).
    • Click on "Cloud" icon -> Select your project -> Devices -> Link Tuya App Account (see screenshot)
    • Click Add App Account (screenshot) and it will pop-up a "Link Tuya App Account" dialog, chose "Automatic" and "Read Only Status" (it will still alow commands). Click OK and it will display a QR code. Scan the QR code with the Smart Life app on your Phone (see step 1 above) by going to the "Me" tab in the Smart Life app and clicking on the QR code button [..] in the upper right hand corner of the app. When you scan the QR code, it will link all of the devices registered in your Smart Life app into your Tuya IoT project. If the QR code will not scan then make sure to disable any browser theming plug-ins (such as Dark Reader) and try again.
    • NO DEVICES? If no devices show up after scanning the QR code, you will need to select a different data center and edit your project (or create a new one) until you see your paired devices from the Smart Life App show up. (screenshot). The data center may not be the most logical. As an example, some in the UK have reported needing to select "Central Europe" instead of "Western Europe".
    • SERVICE API: Under "Service API" ensure these APIs are listed: IoT Core and Authorization. To be sure, click subscribe again on every service. Very important: disable popup blockers otherwise subscribing won't work without providing any indication of a failure. Make sure you authorize your Project to use those APIs:
      • Click "Service API" tab
      • Click "Go to Authorize" button
      • Select the API Groups from the dropdown and click Subscribe (screenshot)
  4. WIZARD - Run Setup Wizard:

    • From your Linux/Mac/Win PC run the TinyTuya Setup Wizard to fetch the Local_Keys for all of your registered devices:
      python -m tinytuya wizard   # use -nocolor for non-ANSI-color terminals
      
    • The Wizard will prompt you for the API ID key, API Secret, API Region (cn, us, us-e, eu, eu-w, or in) from your Tuya IoT project as set in Step 3 above.
      • To find those again, go to iot.tuya.com, choose your project and click Overview
        • API Key: Access ID/Client ID
        • API Secret: Access Secret/Client Secret
    • It will also ask for a sample Device ID. You can have the wizard scan for one (enter scan), use one from step 2 above or in the Device List on your Tuya IoT project.
    • The Wizard will poll the Tuya IoT Cloud Platform and print a JSON list of all your registered devices with the "name", "id" and "key" of your registered device(s). The "key"s in this list are the Devices' Local_Key you will use to access your device.
    • In addition to displaying the list of devices, Wizard will create a local file devices.json that TinyTuya will use to provide additional details for scan results from tinytuya.deviceScan() or when running python -m tinytuya scan. The wizard also creates a local file tuya-raw.json that contains the entire payload from Tuya Cloud.
    • The Wizard will ask if you want to poll all the devices. If you do, it will display the status of all devices on record and create a snapshot.json file with these results. Make sure your LAN and firewall permit UDP (6666, 6667 and 7000) and TCP (6668) traffic.

Notes:

  • If you ever reset or re-pair your smart devices, the Local_Key will be reset and you will need to repeat the steps above.
  • The TinyTuya Wizard was inspired by the TuyAPI CLI which is an alternative way to fetch the Local_Keys: npm i @tuyapi/cli -g and run tuya-cli wizard

Programming with TinyTuya

After importing tinytuya, you create a device handle for the device you want to read or control. Here is an example for a Tuya smart switch or plug:

import tinytuya

# Connect to Device
d = tinytuya.OutletDevice(
    dev_id='DEVICE_ID_HERE',
    address='IP_ADDRESS_HERE',      # Or set to 'Auto' to auto-discover IP address
    local_key='LOCAL_KEY_HERE', 
    version=3.3)

# Get Status
data = d.status() 
print('set_status() result %r' % data)

# Turn On
d.turn_on()

# Turn Off
d.turn_off()

TinyTuya Error Codes

Starting with v1.2.0 TinyTuya functions will return error details in the JSON data responses instead of raising exceptions. The format for this response:

{ "Error":"Invalid JSON Payload", "Err":"900", "Payload":"{Tuya Message}" }

The "Err" number will be one of these:

  • 900 (ERR_JSON) - Invalid JSON Response from Device
  • 901 (ERR_CONNECT) - Network Error: Unable to Connect
  • 902 (ERR_TIMEOUT) - Timeout Waiting for Device
  • 903 (ERR_RANGE) - Specified Value Out of Range
  • 904 (ERR_PAYLOAD) - Unexpected Payload from Device
  • 905 (ERR_OFFLINE) - Network Error: Device Unreachable
  • 906 (ERR_STATE) - Device in Unknown State
  • 907 (ERR_FUNCTION) - Function Not Supported by Device
  • 908 (ERR_DEVTYPE) - Device22 Detected: Retry Command
  • 909 (ERR_CLOUDKEY) - Missing Tuya Cloud Key and Secret
  • 910 (ERR_CLOUDRESP) - Invalid JSON Response from Cloud
  • 911 (ERR_CLOUDTOKEN) - Unable to Get Cloud Token
  • 912 (ERR_PARAMS) - Missing Function Parameters
  • 913 (ERR_CLOUD) - Error Response from Tuya Cloud
  • 914 (ERR_KEY_OR_VER) - Check device key or version

Example Device Monitor

You can set up a persistent connection to a device and then monitor the state changes with a continual loop. This is helpful for troubleshooting and discovering DPS values.

import tinytuya

d = tinytuya.OutletDevice('DEVICEID', 'DEVICEIP', 'DEVICEKEY')
d.set_version(3.3)
d.set_socketPersistent(True)

print(" > Send Request for Status < ")
payload = d.generate_payload(tinytuya.DP_QUERY)
d.send(payload)

print(" > Begin Monitor Loop <")
while(True):
    # See if any data is available
    data = d.receive()
    print('Received Payload: %r' % data)

    # Send keyalive heartbeat
    print(" > Send Heartbeat Ping < ")
    payload = d.generate_payload(tinytuya.HEART_BEAT)
    d.send(payload)

    # NOTE If you are not seeing updates, you can force them - uncomment:
    # print(" > Send Request for Status < ")
    # payload = d.generate_payload(tinytuya.DP_QUERY)
    # d.send(payload)

    # NOTE Some smart plugs require an UPDATEDPS command to update power data
    # print(" > Send DPS Update Request < ")
    # payload = d.generate_payload(tinytuya.UPDATEDPS)
    # d.send(payload)    

Tuya Cloud Access

You can poll and manage Tuya devices using the Cloud class and functions.

CAUTION: The free Tuya IoT Developer (Trial) account allows a very limited number of Cloud API calls. Be aware of the restrictions before enabling any automation that makes frequent calls.

import tinytuya

# Connect to Tuya Cloud
# c = tinytuya.Cloud()  # uses tinytuya.json 
c = tinytuya.Cloud(
        apiRegion="us", 
        apiKey="xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx", 
        apiSecret="xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx", 
        apiDeviceID="xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxID")

# Display list of devices
devices = c.getdevices()
print("Device List: %r" % devices)

# Select a Device ID to Test
id = "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxID"

# Display Properties of Device
result = c.getproperties(id)
print("Properties of device:\n", result)

# Display Status of Device
result = c.getstatus(id)
print("Status of device:\n", result)

# Send Command - Turn on switch
commands = {
    "commands": [
        {"code": "switch_1", "value": True},
        {"code": "countdown_1", "value": 0},
    ]
}
print("Sending command...")
result = c.sendcommand(id,commands)
print("Results\n:", result)

Up to one week of device logs can also be pulled from the Cloud. By default getdevicelog() will pull 1 day of logs or 5000 log entries, whichever comes first. The returned timestamps are unixtime*1000, and event_id 7 (data report) will probably be the most useful.

import tinytuya
import json

c = tinytuya.Cloud()
#r = c.getdevicelog( '00112233445566778899', start=-1, end=0, size=0, max_fetches=50 )
#r = c.getdevicelog( '00112233445566778899', start=1669990000, end=1669990300, size=20 )
r = c.getdevicelog( '00112233445566778899' )
print( json.dumps(r, indent=2) )

Encryption Notes

Tuya devices use AES encryption which is not available in the Python standard library. PyCA/cryptography is recommended and installed by default. Other options include PyCryptodome , PyCrypto and pyaes.

  • Deprecation notice for pyaes: The pyaes library works for Tuya Protocol <= 3.4 but will not work for 3.5 devices. This is because pyaes does not support GCM which is required for v3.5 devices.

Command Line

python -m tinytuya <command> [<max_time>] [-debug] [-nocolor] [-force [192.168.0.0/24 192.168.1.0/24 ...]] [-h]

  wizard         Launch Setup Wizard to get Tuya Local KEYs.
  scan           Scan local network for Tuya devices.
  devices        Scan all devices listed in devices.json file.
  snapshot       Scan devices listed in snapshot.json file.
  json           Scan devices listed in snapshot.json file [JSON].
  <max_time>     Maximum time to find Tuya devices [Default=18]
  -nocolor       Disable color text output.
  -force         Force network scan of device IP addresses based on format:
                 [net1/mask1 net2/mask2 ...] Auto-detects if none provided.
  -no-broadcasts Ignore broadcast packets when force scanning.
  -debug         Activate debug mode.
  -h             Show usage.

Scan Tool

The function tinytuya.scan() will listen to your local network (UDP 6666 and 6667) and identify Tuya devices broadcasting their Address, Device ID, Product ID and Version and will print that and their stats to stdout. This can help you get a list of compatible devices on your network. The tinytuya.deviceScan() function returns all found devices and their stats (via dictionary result).

You can run the scanner from the command line using these interactive commands:

# Listen for Tuya Devices and match to devices.json if available
python -m tinytuya scan

# The above creates a snapshot.json file with IP addresses for devices
# You can use this command to get a rapid poll of status of all devices
python -m tinytuya snapshot

# The sames thing as above but with a non-interactive JSON response
python -m tinytuya json

# List all register devices discovered from Wizard and poll them
python -m tinytuya devices

By default, the scan functions will retry 15 times to find new devices. If you are not seeing all your devices, you can increase max_retries by passing an optional arguments (eg. 50 retries):

# command line
python -m tinytuya scan 50
# invoke verbose interactive scan
tinytuya.scan(50)

# return payload of devices
devices = tinytuya.deviceScan(false, 50)

Troubleshooting

  • Tuya devices only allow one TCP connection at a time. Make sure you close the TuyaSmart or SmartLife app before using TinyTuya to connect.
  • Some devices ship with older firmware that may not work with TinyTuya. If you're experiencing issues, please try updating the device's firmware in the official app.
  • The LOCAL KEY for Tuya devices will change every time a device is removed and re-added to the TuyaSmart app. If you're getting decrypt errors, try getting the key again as it might have changed.
  • Devices running protocol version 3.1 (e.g. below Firmware 1.0.5) do not require a device Local_Key to read the status. All devices will require a device Local_Key to control the device.
  • Some devices with 22 character IDs will require additional setting to poll correctly. TinyTuya will attempt to detect and accomodate for this, but it can be specified directly:
    a = tinytuya.OutletDevice('here_is_my_key', '192.168.x.x', 'secret_key_here', 'device22')
    a.set_version(3.3)
    a.set_dpsUsed({"1": None})  # This needs to be a datapoint available on the device
    data =  a.status()
    print(data)
    
  • Windows 10 Users - TinyTuya wizard and scan interactive tools use ANSI color. This will work correctly in PowerShell but will show cryptic escape codes when run in Windows CMD. You can fix this by using the -nocolor option on tinytuya, or by changing the Windows CMD console registry to process ANSI escape codes by doing something like this:
    reg add HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Console /v VirtualTerminalLevel /t REG_DWORD /d 0x00000001 /f
    

User Contributed Device Modules

In addition to the built-in OutletDevice, BulbDevice and CoverDevice device support, the community is encourage to submit additional device modules which are available here: Contrib Library:

# Example usage of community contributed device modules
from tinytuya import Contrib

thermo = Contrib.ThermostatDevice( 'abcdefghijklmnop123456', '172.28.321.475', '1234567890123abc' )

Tuya Data Points - DPS Table

The Tuya devices send back data points (DPS) also called device function points, in a json string. The DPS attributes define the state of the device. Each key in the DPS dictionary refers to key value pair, the key is the DP ID and its value is the dpValue. You can refer to the Tuya developer platform for definition of function points for the products.

The following table represents several of the standard Tuya DPS values and their properties. It represents data compiled from Tuya documentation and self-discovery. Devices may vary. Feedback or additional data would would be appreciated. Please submit a Issue or Pull Request if you have additional data that would be helpful for others.

To find Tuya DPS for devices not listed below, you can discover the DPS values using the Tuya IoT platform. See this help here: Find your Data Point.

DPS Read and Set Example:

# Read Value of DPS 25
data = d.status()  
print("Value of DPS 25 is ", data['dps']['25'])

# Set Value of DPS 25
d.set_value(25, '010e0d0000000000000003e803e8')

Version 3.3 - Universal IR Controller with optional Temp/Humidity
DP IDFunction PointTypeRangeUnits
101Current Temperatureinteger0-60010x Celsius
102Current Humidityinteger0-100%
201IR Commands (set only)JSON*n/an/a
# The IR Commands JSON has the following format:
command = {
    "control": "send_ir",
    "head": "",
    "key1": "[[TO_BE_REPLACED]]",
    "type": 0,
    "delay": 300,
}
# Sending the IR command:
payload = d.generate_payload(tinytuya.CONTROL, {"201": json.dumps(command)})
d.send(payload)

The key1 attribute is a base64 string that contains the IR signal. You can extract it using this procedure:

  1. Register a new IR device on Tuya Smart / Smart Life app (if not registered already) and map, setup or import your buttons.
  2. Tap multiple times on the button you wish to control.
  3. Go to Tuya IoT Platform and select your app under Cloud > Development section.
  4. Go to to the Device tab and select "Debug Device" on the parent device. Browse Device Logs section and retrieve the key1 attribute that matches your tapping timestamp from step 2 above. Use that key1 attribute in the payload example above.

You need to repeat these steps for each button (cloud logging is not always sequential).

Version 3.3 - Sensor Type

Important Note: Battery-powered Tuya sensors are usually designed to stay in sleep mode until a state change (eg.open or close alert). This means you will not be able to poll these devices except in the brief moment they awake, connect to the WiFi and send their state update payload the the Tuya Cloud. Keep in mind that if you manage to poll the device enough to keep it awake, you will likely quickly drain the battery.
