It wraps the Switcher device protocol in a Python API, using aiohttp for network communication and pycryptodome for cryptographic operations. The library is community-maintained and not officially supported by the Switcher vendor, though it benefits from their cooperation.\n\nThe package targets developers building home automation systems that integrate Switcher devices. It requires Python 3.12 or later and is designed for async/await patterns, making it suitable for integration into event-driven home automation frameworks. The project has been actively developed since 2020 and remains under active maintenance.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you need to control Switcher devices from Python. The package has low install friction, active maintenance, and a permissive license. The main caveat is that it's community-driven without official vendor support\u2014verify device compatibility with your specific models before committing to it in production."},"id":"aioswitcher","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/aioswitcher","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/aioswitcher.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/aioswitcher/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-08-03","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"aioswitcher","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"PyPi module integrating with various Switcher devices"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":78266,"position":14454,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"6.2.0"}
