get_child_device_list() capped at 10 devices?

[nathanja]

I recently expanded the number of tapo devices I have connected to my hub to 12, and now note that even though my new devices are showing up, two of my older devices are no longer visible in the data returned from my H100 hub.

What is interesting is that hub.get_child_device_list_json() has a returned parameter "sum" which is 12, but the object only includes 10 devices.

I can confirm that the sensors are online and working correctly (one motion sensor T100, one temperature sensor T315).

Coincidence? Or something more fundamental?

Congratulations on having a substantial number of child devices. You are the first user of this library to encounter (or at least report) this issue.

Upon closer examination of the decompiled Tapo app, I noticed that the get_child_device_list method includes a start_index parameter. This likely indicates that the request is paginated.

The implementation will need to be updated to accommodate this. I believe it would be best to internalize a mechanism for fetching subsequent pages, so the caller doesn't have to manage this themselves.

This has been implemented on main. Could you try it out and let me know how it works for you? I've only got 7 devices :)
