Node.JS library for Broadlink controllers

A promise based Node.js module created from Python API python-broadlink for controlling Broadlink IR/RF controllers.

Example use

Setup a new device on your local wireless network:

1. Put the device into AP Mode
2. Long press the reset button until the blue LED is blinking quickly.
3. Long press again until blue LED is blinking slowly.
4. Manually connect to the WiFi SSID named BroadlinkProv.
5. Run setup() and provide your ssid, network password (if secured), and set the security mode
6. Security mode options are (0 = none, 1 = WEP, 2 = WPA1, 3 = WPA2, 4 = WPA1/2)

import * as broadlink from 'node-broadlink';

broadlink.setup('myssid', 'mynetworkpass', 3)

Discover available devices on the local network:

import * as broadlink from 'node-broadlink';

const [device] = await broadlink.discover();

Obtain the authentication key required for further communication:

await device.auth();

Enter learning mode:

import { Rmmini } from 'node-broadlink';
const rmminiDevice = device as Rmmini;
await rmminiDevice.enterLearning();

Sweep RF frequencies:

import { Rmpro } from 'node-broadlink';
const rmproDevice = device as Rmpro;
const responseRaw = await rmproDevice.sweepFrequency();

Cancel sweep RF frequencies:

const responseRaw = await rmproDevice.cancelSweepFrequency();

Check whether a frequency has been found:

const found = await rmproDevice.checkFrequency();

(This will return true if the RM has locked onto a frequency, false otherwise)

Attempt to learn an RF packet:

const found = await rmproDevice.findRfPacket();

(This will return true if a packet has been found, false otherwise)

Obtain an IR or RF packet while in learning mode:

const ir_packet = await rmminiDevice.checkData(); // 2600d80000012894133814381312131213121312.....

(This will reject an error if the device does not have a packet to return)

Send an IR or RF packet:

// ir_packet can be an hex-string (e.g "2600d80000012894133814381312131....") or a numbers array (e.g. [74, 7, 212, 7, 17, 161, 184, 70, 118, 205, ....]) 
const responseRaw = await rmminiDevice.sendData(ir_packet);

Obtain temperature data from an RM2:

const temperature = await rmproDevice.checkTemperature(); // 45.5

Obtain sensor data from an A1:

import { A1 } from 'node-broadlink';
const a1Device = device as A1;
const data = await a1Device.checkSensors();

Set power state on a SmartPlug SP2/SP3:

import { Sp2 } from 'node-broadlink';
const sp2Device = device as Sp2;
const responseRaw = await sp2Device.setPower(true);

Check power state on a SmartPlug:

const state = await sp2Device.checkPower();

Check energy consumption on a SmartPlug:

import { Sp2s } from 'node-broadlink';
const sp2sDevice = device as Sp2s;
const state = await sp2sDevice.getEnergy();

Set power state for S1 on a SmartPowerStrip MP1:

import { Mp1 } from 'node-broadlink';
const mp1Device = device as Mp1;
const responseRaw = await mp1Device.setPower(1, true);

Check power state on a SmartPowerStrip:

const state = await mp1Device.checkPower();
