How to change "press hold time" programmatically about python-host HOT 5 CLOSED

@tony-wallace I've started a project to allow you to get more details on the switchbots, currently this project supports passwords and getting the battery and firmware version. You can find the support here: https://github.com/nemccarthy/pySwitchbot/

The aim is to merge this project into HomeAssistant.

I've been able to find the press time setting string. The next step is to try setting this programatically. Let me know if youre still interested in this and I'll add it in.

from python-host.

I built a REST / Python API which allows to control the following switchbot functionality both in encrypted and unencrypted mode:

• actions: press, turn on, turn off
• get settings: battery, firmware, number of timers, mode, hold time
• set settings: hold time, mode
• timers: get timers, set timers, sync timers

You can find the code here: https://github.com/nicolas-kuechler/switchbot

If you want to build your own library you can check out the documentation of the BLE API at the end of the README. It should contain most of the information that you need.

[x] Get and set long press time settings

Yes, please. I have been using a remote-control power strip in combination with the Switchbots. It would be helpful if the power strip was not absolutely required.

Thanks!

[x] Get and set long press time settings

Same here. I use the smartswitch to control my heating system remotely. Some times, I need to reset the device and this is made by pressing the power button for 5 secs. I've tried using the ON and OFF commands, but all of them do the same!!!

So, changing the press time will solve my issue! Thx.

Bot has pressing time setting in the APP.
In addition, the action sequence version has also been released.
If needed, you can feedback in the app.
Thanks.
