Python library to interface with myTecnoalarm TCS app cloud services

This repo provides code to interface with the cloud services of the "my Tecnoalarm TCS" app. Funcionality has been reverse-engineered and may not be complete.

How to install it

pip install pytcs-tecnoalarm

How to use it

To use this library you need to authenticate to the cloud service.

First login

Open an interactive prompt and run:

from pytcs_tecnoalarm import TCSSession
s = TCSSession()
s.login(email, password)

If your account does not have 2 factor authenticator, you will be logged in. Otherwise, this will throw an OTPException

Get the code from your email and run

s.login(email, password, pin)

If everything goes right, you will have an authenticated token and app-id to re-use in the future (does not seem to expire)

extract then with

s.token
s.appid

You can also use directly the login.py script, it will handle the OTP and print your Token and App ID

python login.py

Future logins

Simply pass your token and appid when instantiating the session

from pytcs_tecnoalarm import TCSSession
s = TCSSession(token, appid)

This will run the .re_auth() function that should re-enable the token for immediate use.

The token never changes.
