It wraps the PowerView hub API to query and control individual shades, manage scenes, automations, and schedules across multiple hub generations. The library handles shade type detection, position clamping, battery status, and cross-generational API differences transparently.\n\nThe package depends only on aiohttp for HTTP requests and is built around async/await patterns, making it suitable for event-driven home automation systems. Recent releases have focused on bug fixes for edge cases (empty hub responses, case-sensitive endpoints, tilt-shade positioning) and support for additional shade types. It exposes structured data objects rather than raw JSON, and includes automatic API version detection based on firmware.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you own PowerView blinds and need programmatic control. The library is actively maintained, has low dependencies, carries no known vulnerabilities, and is permissively licensed. Install friction is minimal. The main gotcha is that it requires a PowerView hub on your local network\u2014it is not a cloud API. Suitable for Home-Assistant users or custom automation projects."},"id":"aiopvapi","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/aiopvapi","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/aiopvapi.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/aiopvapi/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-08-12","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"aiopvapi","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Powerview blinds API wrapper"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":76937,"position":14576,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"3.4.1"}
