# Domoticz-Tuya-SmartPlug-Plugin

A Domoticz plugin to manage Tuya Smart Plug

## ONLY TESTED FOR Raspberry Pi

With Python version 3.5 & Domoticz version 4.9999 (beta)

## Prerequisites

This plugin is based on the latest pytuya Python library. For the installation of this library,
follow the Installation guide below.
See [`https://github.com/clach04/python-tuya/`](https://github.com/clach04/python-tuya/) for more information.

For the pytuya Python library, you need pycrypto. pycrypto can be installed with pip:
```
pip3 install pycrypto
```
See [`https://pypi.org/project/pycrypto/`](https://pypi.org/project/pycrypto/) for more information.

## Installation

Assuming that domoticz directory is installed in your home directory.

```bash
cd ~/domoticz/plugins
git clone https://github.com/tixi/Domoticz-Tuya-SmartPlug-Plugin
cd Domoticz-Tuya-SmartPlug-Plugin
git clone https://github.com/clach04/python-tuya.git
ln -s ~/domoticz/plugins/Domoticz-Tuya-SmartPlug-Plugin/python-tuya/pytuya pytuya
# restart domoticz:
sudo /etc/init.d/domoticz.sh restart
```
In the web UI, navigate to the Hardware page. In the hardware dropdown there will be an entry called "Tuya SmartPlug".

## Known issue

Domoticz may not have the path to the pycrypto library in its python environment.
In this case you will observe something starting like that in the log:
* failed to load 'plugin.py', Python Path used was 
* Module Import failed, exception: 'ImportError'

To find where pycrypto is installed, in a shell:
```bash
pip3 show pycrypto
```
The Crypto directory should be present in the directory indicated with Location.

when you have it, just add a symbolic link to it in Domoticz-Tuya-SmartPlug-Plugin directory with ```ln -s```.
Example:
```bash
cd ~/domoticz/plugins/Domoticz-Tuya-SmartPlug-Plugin
ln -s /home/pi/.local/lib/python3.5/site-packages/Crypto Crypto
```

## Updating

Like other plugins, in the Domoticz-Tuya-SmartPlug-Plugin directory:
```bash
git pull
sudo /etc/init.d/domoticz.sh restart
```
