Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Readme

@lumiastream/tplink-tapo-cove

Unified TP-Link API supporting both Kasa (older TP-Link devices) and Tapo (newer TP-Link devices) smart home products.

Features

  • Single API for both Kasa and Tapo devices
  • Automatic protocol detection
  • Device discovery (local and cloud)
  • Control lights, plugs, and other smart devices
  • Support for RGB colors, brightness, and color temperature
  • Energy monitoring for compatible devices

Installation

npm install @lumiastream/tplink-tapo-cove

Usage

Basic Example

import { UnifiedTpLinkApi } from '@lumiastream/tplink-tapo-cove';

// Initialize the API
const api = new UnifiedTpLinkApi({
  email: '[email protected]',
  password: 'your-password'
});

// Discover all devices
const { allDevices } = await api.discover();

// Control a device
const deviceId = allDevices[0].id;
await api.turnOn(deviceId);
await api.setBrightness(deviceId, 50);
await api.setRgb(deviceId, 255, 0, 0); // Red

Device Discovery

// Discover both Kasa and Tapo devices
const { kasaDevices, tapoDevices, allDevices } = await api.discover({
  includeKasa: true,
  includeTapo: true,
  kasaTimeout: 4000
});

// Get devices by protocol
const kasaOnly = api.getDevicesByProtocol(DeviceProtocol.KASA);
const tapoOnly = api.getDevicesByProtocol(DeviceProtocol.TAPO);

Advanced Control

// Create custom light states
const tapoState = api.createTapoLightState();
tapoState.on().brightness(75).hsl(180, 100, 50);

const kasaState = api.createKasaLightState();
kasaState.on().brightness(50).rgb(0, 255, 0);

// Apply states to devices
await api.setLightState(deviceId, tapoState.getValues());
