Informations about the package tplinksmartplug
PHP Library to Control and Access a TP-Link Smartplug!
(Bonus Laravel integration supported!!)
TPLink Smartplug is a small PHP library that allows anyone to control and access a TPLink Smartplug.
Current TPLINK models supported are
It is likely that other TPLink models will also work, but these have not been checked.
Installation
This package can be installed standalone in a regular PHP project, or can also be integrated into Laravel to make life even easier.
To install the latest version simply use composer to add it to your project using the following command:
Laravel Installation/Integration
This library supports Laravel's auto discovery feature for auto registering the service provider and facade. If your version of Laravel supports auto discovery, after you have added this package YOU ARE NOW DONE!
If you are using a very old version of Laravel, once this package is installed, you need to register the package's service provider, in config/app.php
:
Facades
Only if your version of Laravel does NOT support auto discovery then add the following to the aliases section of 'app.php'.
Config file
This package requires a config file so that you can provide the address/details of the TPLink devices you would like to control. To generate this file, run the following command:
This will create a TPLink.php
file in your Laravel config
folder. You should edit this to setup your devices.
Configuration
The config file is a very simple array structured file. A config file is required for both standalone/Laravel projects. The content is similar to this:
You may add as many devices as you wish, as long as you specify the IP address (or host address if required) and port number to access each one. Giving each device a name makes it easy to identify them when coding later. (Please note that the name you give here does NOT have to match the actual name you might have assigned the device using an official app like Kasa. They do NOT have to match)
Usage
You can access your device either through the TPLinkManager
class (especially useful if you have multiple devices), or directly using the TPLinkDevice
class.
Using the manager, allows you to specify WHICH device you would like to send your command to.
If you only have one device you may just want to use the TPDevice
class by itself - but using the manager is recommended.
Depending on your style of coding you may use either the Facade or instantiate the object yourself.
The following are all similar:
Once you have your device ready, you can then send it a command.
Commands
All commands for the smartplug have been created in a separate class to ease use and allow for more to be added easily in the future.
To send a command, simply call the sendCommand
method on the TPDevice
object and pass in the command required as a parameter.
For example, to get the current status of the smartplug
If a command requires a parameter, provide that as well:
Toggle Power
There is one command that is called directly on the TPLinkDevice
and that is the togglePower()
method.
If you only wish to toggle the current power state of the plug, use it as follows:
There are a large number of commands in the TPLinkCommand
class. Please read the docblock comments for explanations and requirements for each one.
The current list of commands available to use are:
