ikea IDÅSEN desk API and CLI.
Project description
The IDÅSEN is an electric sitting standing desk with a Linak controller sold by ikea.
The position of the desk can controlled by a physical switch on the desk or via bluetooth using an phone app.
This is a command line interface written in python to control the Idasen via bluetooth from a desktop computer.
Set Up
Prerequisites
The desk should be connected to the computer.
Install
python3 -m pip install --upgrade idasenConfiguration
Configuration that is not expected to change frequently can be provided via a YAML configuration file located at ~/.config/idasen/idasen.yaml.
You can use this command to initialize a new configuartion file:
idasen initmac_address: AA:AA:AA:AA:AA:AA
positions:
sit: 0.75
stand: 1.1Configuartion options:
mac_address - The MAC address of the desk. This is required.
positions - A dictionary of positions with values of desk height from the floor in meters, sit and stand are provided as examples.
The program will try to discover the device address. The device needs to be in ‘discover’ mode for this to work.
If discovery fails the device MAC addresses can be found using blueoothctl and bluetooth adapter names can be found with hcitool dev on linux.
If the device has not yet been paired, this can be accomplished with:
idasen pairAgain, the device will need to be in ‘discover’ mode for this to work.
