It abstracts the different communication protocols used by different device generations\u2014V1 for standard vacuums and A01 for wet/dry vacuums and washing machines\u2014into a unified interface. The library handles authentication via email code login, device discovery through a device manager, and provides trait-based access to device capabilities like status queries, cleaning commands, and map data.\n\nThe library is built on async/await patterns using aiohttp and aiomqtt for network communication, with protobuf and cryptographic libraries handling protocol encoding and security. It's designed primarily for home automation integration (notably Home Assistant) and targets developers building smart home applications. The library requires Python 3.11 or later and has no known security vulnerabilities.","worth_installing":"Yes. The library is actively maintained, has no known vulnerabilities, uses a permissive license, and offers low installation friction. It's well-suited for anyone building home automation integrations with Roborock devices. The async-first design and support for multiple device protocols make it flexible for both simple control and complex multi-device scenarios."},"id":"python-roborock","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/python-roborock","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/python-roborock.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/python-roborock/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-08-02","license_spdx":"Apache-2.0","license_treatment":"permissive","name":"python-roborock","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"A package to control Roborock vacuums."},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":138155,"position":11341,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"6.2.1"}
