It wraps the REST API with async/await patterns, handling the cryptographic signing required by SwitchBot's authentication scheme through pycryptodome and managing HTTP requests via aiohttp.\n\nThe library is designed for home automation and IoT integration scenarios where you need to programmatically list devices, check their status, or send commands. It's actively maintained, supports modern Python versions (3.10\u20133.14), and has no known security vulnerabilities. Installation is straightforward with a pure-Python wheel and only two runtime dependencies.","worth_installing":"Yes. The library is actively maintained, has low install friction, carries a permissive MIT license, and has no known vulnerabilities. It fills a clear niche for Python developers integrating SwitchBot devices into automation workflows. The async design aligns with modern Python practices. Install it if you're building SwitchBot automation."},"id":"switchbot-api","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/switchbot-api","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/switchbot-api.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/switchbot-api/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-08-10","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"switchbot-api","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"An asynchronous library to use Switchbot API"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":73438,"position":14999,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"2.13.0"}
