Classes to send a Command to lircd and parse the reply.
Sending commands is about creating a command and connection. In the simplest form it looks like
import lirc
with lirc.CommandConnection(socket_path=...) as conn:
reply = lirc.StopRepeatCommand(conn, 'mceusb', 'KEY_1').run()
if not reply.success:
print(parser.data[0])
See also the list-remotes.py, list-keys.py and simulate.py examples.
The parameters depends on the actual command; there is a Command defined for all known lircd commands. socket_path can often be omitted, see get_default_socket_path() for default locations used.
The returned object is a Reply with various info on the processed command.
To get more control lower-level primitives could be used instead of run() as in this example:
while not command.parser.is_completed():
line = conn.readline(0.1)
if line:
command.parser.feed(line)
else:
... handle timeout
if not command.parser.result == lirc.client.Result.OK:
print('Cannot get version string')
else:
print(command.parser.data[0])
...
conn.close()
