NODE JS API for Gree Air Conditioner

An API Interface for controlling a Gree Air Conditioner. The code is written in TypeScript based on the hard work from the guys working on and contributing to https://github.com/tomikaa87/gree-remote. I take no credit for the research that went into understanding how the interface works. Thanks a lot guys for your research!

Required

• NodeJS 16+
• Yarn
• TypeScript knowledge

This is just an API, by default it will only search and bind to the devices, you need to implement the methods.

The waitForDevices from index.ts will return an array of devices (by default is set to return only 1), to send commands use device.sendCommand(...).

If you want to always search for devices, use DeviceFinder.scan('address', 0) and DeviceFinder.on('device-found', (device) => ...).

Logs

To enable the logs, use the debug package. e.g.

debug.enable('gree-ac-api:*');

Not implemented by default

The following features are not implemented here, but you can manually implement them.

• Scheduling
• Synchronizing the time on the device

Setup

Create your own nodejs project and install the package with:

yarn add gree-ac-api

or

npm install gree-ac-api
