Python package for controlling Emerald Heat Pump Hot Water Systems

Overview

This package provides an interface to control and monitor Emerald Heat Pump Hot Water Systems through their API and MQTT service.

Installation

pip install emerald_hws

Usage

from emerald_hws.emeraldhws import EmeraldHWS

# Basic usage with default connection settings
client = EmeraldHWS("your_email@example.com", "your_password")
client.connect()

# List all hot water systems
hws_list = client.listHWS()
print(f"Found {len(hws_list)} hot water systems")

# Get status of first HWS
hws_id = hws_list[0]
status = client.getFullStatus(hws_id)
print(f"Current temperature: {status['last_state'].get('temp_current')}")

# Turn on the hot water system
client.turnOn(hws_id)

Configuration Options

Connection Timeout

The module will automatically reconnect to the MQTT service periodically to prevent stale connections. You can configure this timeout:

# Set connection timeout to 6 hours (360 minutes)
client = EmeraldHWS("your_email@example.com", "your_password", connection_timeout_minutes=360)

Health Check

The module can proactively check for message activity and reconnect if no messages have been received for a specified period:

# Set health check to check every 30 minutes
client = EmeraldHWS("your_email@example.com", "your_password", health_check_minutes=30)

# Disable health check
client = EmeraldHWS("your_email@example.com", "your_password", health_check_minutes=0)

Callback for Updates

You can register a callback function to be notified when the state of any hot water system changes:

def my_callback():
    print("Hot water system state updated!")

client = EmeraldHWS("your_email@example.com", "your_password", update_callback=my_callback)
