It allows developers to authenticate with an Ecovacs account, retrieve paired devices, send cleaning commands, and subscribe to device events like battery status changes. The library is maintained as a community contribution project and is not officially supported by Ecovacs.\n\nThe package wraps async I/O operations using aiohttp and aiomqtt, with cryptographic utilities for authentication. It exposes a Device class for command execution and an event subscription system. Because the API is reverse-engineered, the maintainers note that feature coverage depends on community contributions and cannot be guaranteed to remain stable.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you own a Deebot vacuum and want programmatic control for home automation. The library is actively maintained, has no known vulnerabilities, and integrates well with Home Assistant. Be aware of the GPL-3.0-or-later copyleft license, the Python 3.14.0 requirement, and the Windows MQTT limitation. The reverse-engineered API carries inherent risk of breaking changes if Ecovacs alters their protocol."},"id":"deebot-client","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/deebot-client","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/deebot-client.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/deebot-client/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-07-30","license_spdx":"GPL-3.0-or-later","license_treatment":"copyleft","name":"deebot-client","python_support":"capped_below_current","summary":"Deebot client library in python 3"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":90982,"position":13552,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"18.5.1"}
