Asynchronous Python client for Tailwind garage door openers.
Decision gist · record as of 2026-08-14
Yes. The package is actively maintained, has no known vulnerabilities, installs cleanly with low friction, and is licensed permissively. Install it if you own a compatible Tailwind device and need programmatic control or CLI access. Verify that your device firmware meets the v10.10 minimum requirement before relying on it.AI-flagged interpretation of the facts on this page — verify before relying
Before you install
- Requires a Tailwind device on your network with firmware v10.10 or later and a valid authentication token from the device.
- Low friction install with a pure-Python wheel.
- Active maintenance with a recent release (109 days ago) and current commit activity.

What it is and what it does
gotailwind is an async Python library that lets you control Tailwind smart garage door openers programmatically. It wraps the Tailwind device API, allowing you to query door status, send open/close commands, and monitor multiple doors on a single device. The package depends on aiohttp for HTTP communication, mastering for serialization, orjson for fast JSON parsing, and zeroconf for device discovery on your network.
The library is designed for integration into home automation systems and third-party applications. It includes a standalone CLI tool (via the `[cli]` extra) that exposes the same functionality from the command line, making it useful both as a library and as a standalone utility. Your Tailwind device must run firmware v10.10 or later to be compatible.
Use it for
- Integrate garage door control into a Home Assistant or other home automation platform.
- Build a custom Python script to automate garage door operations based on time, location, or events.
- Query door status from a monitoring application to track whether doors are open or closed.
- Use the CLI tool to manually control or check status of Tailwind devices from shell scripts or cron jobs.
- Develop a web dashboard or mobile app backend that communicates with Tailwind devices on your network.
