Yeelight
Note
Only basic support for controlling Yeelight lights is implemented at the moment.
You will likely want to use python-yeelight for controlling your lights.
Currently supported features:
Querying the status.
Turning on and off.
Changing brightness, colors (RGB and HSV), color temperature.
Changing internal settings (developer mode, saving settings on change)
Use miiocli yeelight --help
for help on available commands and their parameters.
To extract the token from a backup of the official Yeelight app, refer to Token extraction.
Token extraction
In order to extract tokens from the Yeelight Android app, you need to create a backup like shown below.
adb backup -noapk com.yeelight.cherry -f backup.ab
If everything went fine and you got a backup.ab file,
from which you can extract the tokens with miio-extract-tokens as described in Extracting tokens.
miio-extract-tokens /tmp/yeelight.ab --password a
