Package: arlo
arloPython module for interacting with Netgear's Arlo camera system.Now supports MFA!MFA using this library relies on using the Gmail API to retrieve MFA codes. Please see theWikifor detailed instructions for configuring MFA via Gmail.Now in Golang!If you love the Go programming language, check outarlo-golang.
My goal is to bring parity to the Python version asap. If you know what you're doing in Go, I would appreciate any feedback on the >general structure of the library, and contributions, etc.GETTING STARTEDCheck out theAPI DOCSIMPORTANT:There is a regression insseclient 0.0.24that breaks this package. Please ensure you haveseeclient 0.0.22installed.IMPORTANT:Please ensure you don't have ANY othersseclientpackages installed in addition tosseclient 0.0.22! This may cause this package to fail in unexpected ways. A common one that is known to cause issues is thesseclient-py 1.7package. If you have a hard requirement to have more than one, please let me know and we can look into making that work.IMPORTANT:my.arlo.com requires TLS 1.2 for their API. So, if you're getting ssl errors, it's most likely related to your version of openssl. You may need to upgrade your openssl library.
If you're running this library on OSX or macOS, they ship withopenssl v0.9.xwhich does not support TLS 1.2. You should follow the instructions foundhereto upgrade your openssl library.Filing an IssuePlease read theIssue Guidelines and Policieswiki pageBEFOREyou file an issue. Thanks.Install# Install latest stable package$pipinstallarlo

--or--# Install from master branch$pipinstallgit+https://github.com/jeffreydwalter/arloThis just a personal utility that I created out of necessity. It is by no means complete, although it does expose quite a bit of the Arlo interface in an easy to use Python package. As such, this package does not come with unit tests (feel free to add them) or guarantees.Allcontributionsare welcome and appreciated!If you have a specific Arlo device that you want to improve support for, please consider sending me one! Since this project is solely maintained by yours truely and I don't have unlimited funds to support it, I can only really test and debug the code with the first gen Arlo cameras and basestation that I have. I also highly encourage and appreciate Pull Requests!Please, feel free tocontributeto this repo or buy Jeff a beer!Generous Benefactors (Thank you!)sfederman- 🍺🍺🍺🍺DerekEwing- 🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺 - THANK YOU!!! * hickup *apsteinmetz- 🍺mhallikainen- 🍺🍺tinsheep- 🍺🍺cubewot- 🍺🍺imopen- 🍺notalifeform- 🍺🍺anonymous- 🍺🍺🍺🍺kewashi- 🍺Awesomely Smart Contributors (Thank you!)sfederman- Aug 3, 2021 - Helped to debug and fix EventStream in MFA branch.neilferreira- Jun 4, 2021 - Pointed out missing schemaVersoin header.timgates42- Mar 3, 2021 - Fixed crappy spelling in README.Kerl1310- Jan 11, 2020 - Added automated unit tests.
