[sudo] pip install py-synologydsm-apiYou can import the module as synology_dsm.
SynologyDSM(
session,
dsm_ip,
dsm_port,
username,
password,
use_https=False,
timeout=10,
device_token=None,
debugmode=False,
)For session a valid aiohttp.ClientSession needs to be provided. If ssl verification should be truned off, configure the session accordingly (eq. aiohttp.ClientSession(connector=aiohttp.TCPConnector(verify_ssl=False))
device_token should be added when using a two-step authentication account, otherwise DSM will ask to login with a One Time Password (OTP) and requests will fail (see the login section for more details).
Default timeout is 10 seconds. SynologyDSM also takes a aiohttp.ClientTimeout as timeout.
Use the login() function to authenticate first, otherwise a SynologyDSMNotLoggedInException is raised.
It will return a boolean if it successed or faild to authenticate to DSM.
If your account need a two-step authentication (2SA), login() will raise SynologyDSMLogin2SARequiredException.
Call the function again with a One Time Password (OTP) as parameter, like login("123456") (better to be a string to handle first zero).
Store the device_token property so that you do not need to reconnect with password the next time you open a new SynologyDSM session.
Every API has an update() function that is needed to get the first data, then the data is cached and updated at the next update() call.
The SynologyDSM class can also update() all APIs at once.
