Winix python program to get current status of Winix air purifier units and publish to MQTT, also allows you to publish MQTT topics to Winix cloud to control your units.
Requires Python version 3.7
check the top of the program module, winix-02.py for the line:
WORKING_DIRECTORY = "/home/user/winix/"
this is the directory where the program reads its configuration file 'winix-02.yaml' and also writes it log files 'winix-02.log', make sure your program has read and write rights to this directory.
Built on the strong work and shoulders of these fine github contributors:

MQTT topic and server, syslog server, logging, and update period are configured in file : winix-02.yaml
Python 3 program downloads the data from Winix air purifiers listed in winix-02.yaml
The program is run from the 'real' directory on host machine, I do NOT copy the python program into the docker container, this is why the --user command is necessary to make sure the 'user' user inside the docker container has rights to write to the log files in the real home directory for the app.
MQTT topic base in in config file. Each unit in config file publishes its information under base topic followed by it's MAC address, for example:
winix/11:22:33:44:55:66
each unit looks for control command under the sub topic /control, for example:
winix/11:22:33:44:55:66/control/"command"
for example to power the unit on, the MQTT topic for unit with MAC address 11:22:33:44:55:66 is:
winix/11:22:33:44:55:66/control/power
with a message of "ON"
all message are strings NOT numbers.
You can run it without Docker, as long as you have all the python 3 pip3 requirements.txt installed:
python3 winix02.py
or build a docker container with the pip3 requirements.
Docker information:
docker build -t winix02 .
# remove current docker container first
./docker-run.sh
MQTT commands:
# power on or off
mosquitto_pub -h 192.168.xxx.yyy -t winix/aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff/control/power -m "OFF"
mosquitto_pub -h 192.168.xxx.yyy -t winix/aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff/control/power -m "ON"
