This C++ implementation of the TP Link L530 Light bulb API was desgined for an ESP32. This is an example class which I later use on a ESP32 CYD with a UI to control the smart bulbs within my house. This was my first project which has been written in C++ so there is likely to be bad practices and alot of code improvements that can be made.
To use this program you will need to encode your TP LINK username and password with SHA1 Hashing. this can be done with a simple python script like
import hashlib, os
def sha1(value):
return hashlib.sha1(value).digest()
username = os.getenv("username")
password = os.getenv("password")
encoded = sha1(username.encode()) + sha1(password.encode())
with open('creds.bin', 'wb') as f:
f.write(encoded)With this code an .env file is needed with the fields layed out like
username = "[email protected]"
password = "PASSWORD"
Or the Lighting Class can take creds as an data field in its constructor it will need to be std::vector<uint8_t> type.
The Output file can then be uploaded onto the ESP32 using the Build FileSystem Image option on PlatformIO the file needs to be stored in a dir named /data
Clone the project
git clone https://github.com/Infinity585/CPP-L530-API.gitGo to the project directory
cd CPP-L530-APIInstall PlatformIO
Complete the setup by building the project though PlatformIO and then finally upload the code onto the board.
This code was based on my python implemenation which was developed based on the following projects.
