roomba-go

Unofficial SDK for iRobot Roomba models. This is a re-implementation of a part of the https://github.com/koalazak/dorita980 library. Many Thanks!

CLI App

Obtain credentials

Discover roomba and save the Blid field and the IP Address
```
roomba-cli discover
```
Get roomba password
```
roomba-cli get-password -host [IP Address]
```
Follow the instructions and save the printed password.

These credentials can be passwd with the -host, -user and the -password flag for each command or can be loaded from the ROOMBA_HOST, ROOMBA_USER and the ROOMBA_PASSWORD environment variables.

Usage information:

roomba-cli --help

SDK

Usage example

cfg := &config.Config{
  Address:  "[ROOMBA HOST]"
  User:     "[ROOMBA BLID]"
  Password: "[ROOMBA PASSWORD]"
  Debug:    false
}
client := roomba.New(cfg)
if err = client.Connect(); err != nil {
  log.Fatalf("Unable to connect to roomba: %v", err)
}

if err = client.SendCommand("clean"); err != nil {
  log.Fatalf("Unable to send command: %v", err)
}

client.Disconnect()

Configuration

Client configuration can be loaded from environment variables

cfg := config.NewFromEnv("ROOMBA_")

In this case the roomba will load the matching config attributes from environment variables. (e.g.: ROOMBA_ADDRESS -> Address)

State logging

The configuration accepts a StateWriter field. If this field is set all state message (coordinates, status messages, signal strength, ...) will written in JSON format.
