Additional context

I've been looking for ways to get at data from my WalkingPad. Have you been able to interface with it in any way?

Dreaming about extracting steps data from the device

Some `get_prop` calls of the mihome app (react plugin):

get_prop ['mode', 'sp']
get_prop ["goal"]
get_prop ['initial']
get_prop ['offline']
get_prop ["lock"]
get_prop ["max"]
get_prop ['mode', 'sp', 'step', 'dist', 'time', 'button_id']
get_prop ["max", "sensitivity", "start_speed", "auto", "disp", "lock"]
get_prop ['mode', 'sp', 'step', 'time', 'dist', 'cal', 'goal']

Methods:

set_mode [mode] # supported modes: 0, 1, 2, 3
set_offline [offline] # offline: 0, 1
set_state ['run']
tutorial [index] # index: integer. supported values unknown
set_max [speed] / set_max [6]
set_lock [0]
set_sensitivity [index] # index: integer. supported values unknown
set_auto [index] # index: integer. supported values unknown
set_lock [index] # index: integer. supported values unknown
set_start_speed [speed]
set_disp [index] # index: integer. supported values unknown
set_speed [speed]
set_cali [1] / set_cali [0]
set_goal [typeIndex, goalValue]
set_insure [1]

Could somebody provide the responses of the get_prop calls and wants to play around with the methods? We need a description per method and possible values. I can try to provide some parameter types.

[dmatora]

raw_command set_start_speed '["1.0"]' finally made my WalkingPad autostart on speed 1! Hurray!

raw_command get_prop '["mode"]' returns

• [0] while mode is auto
• [1] while mode is manual
• [2] when in standby

raw_command get_prop '["step"]' returns [2303]
raw_command get_prop '["time"]' returns [1970] (while time is 32:50)
raw_command get_prop '["dist"]' returns [1869]
raw_command get_prop '["cal"]' returns [67340]
raw_command get_prop '["goal"]' returns [0, 60]
raw_command get_prop '["max"]' returns [6.0]
raw_command get_prop '["initial"]' returns [3]
raw_command get_prop '["offline"]' returns [0]
raw_command get_prop '["sensitivity"]' returns [2]
raw_command get_prop '["sp"]' returns [1.0]
raw_command get_prop '["start_speed"]' returns [1.0]
raw_command get_prop '["auto"]' returns [1]
raw_command get_prop '["disp"]' returns [19]
raw_command get_prop '["lock"]' returns [0]

Built myself an iOS app, to put steps from walking pad into apple health and watch my daily step goal


unfortunately it only works when web server with php script is providing miiocli bridge on local network
hopefully milo javascript library will get react native support soon enough and I'll be able to make this standalone app

Some get_prop calls of the mihome app (react plugin):

@syssi btw, how did you get those?
I'd really like to get those for my Xiaomi Rice cooking robot (MBIH-R3), it's app is also a nightmare

[rytilahti]

@dmatora if you are talking about getting supported by https://github.com/aholstenson/miio , I wouldn't hold my breath as the last commit is from 2018. If you know of a maintained fork / other project, please let us know! I think it would be a good idea to have a section for "related projects" in the readme file.

Also, feel free to create a PR to add support for the walking pad to this library, if you wish :-)

feel free to create a PR to add support for the walking pad to this library, if you wish :-)

@rytilahti I am thinking about adding it to home assistant so it can act as a proxy for iOS app
does it involve adding it to miio-python? or can I just add it straight to home assistant?

anyway I think both options are above my head, but I can give it a try :)

[rytilahti]

@dmatora yes, to get it supported in the official homeassistant, the support needs to be added first to this library and then to homeassistant (separately).

There is xiaomi_raw (linked in the README.md), which allows using devices without proper integration for the time being.

If you are somewhat familiar with python, adding support to new device to this library is not usally very complicated, and there are plenty of examples for other devices available :-)

[dmatora]

can't remember writing anything in python
when getting token for walkingpad using token_extractor.py I've noticed it also shows

   NAME:  Thermometer
   ID:    blt.3.10dog0vhs5400
   IP:    185.135.151.12
   TOKEN: 1D1EAD2236B752B5B4B16251
   MODEL: miaomiaoce.thermo.t01

which is a bluetooth device.
Does miio_python work with bluetooth devices?
I would love to get Miaomiaoce Zenmeasure (or any other reliable continious body temperature monitor) integrated with Apple Health

[syssi]

The short answer is no. python-miio requires a wifi device (talking the miio protocol).

[rytilahti]

For BT(LE), https://github.com/zewelor/bt-mqtt-gateway looks nice, but I have never used it so far. There are some bluetooth standardized formats, but I suppose most use some sort of proprietary format and you have to manually reverse-engineer the payload contents to add support. If you want to go that road, see https://reverse-engineering-ble-devices.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ :)
