dorita980

Unofficial iRobot Roomba 980 node.js library (SDK)

With this library you can send commands to your Roomba 980 through the iRobot cloud API or directly from your LAN and integrate your roboot with your own Home Automation or IoT project.

See rest980 if you need a HTTP REST API interface.

Firmware 1.6.6 documentation

All this document is only for firmware 1.6.6. Check your robot version!

If you have firmware version 2.0 click here to see the new documentation.

There are some breaking changes between 1.6.6 and 2.0.0.

Features

Get your username/password easily
Auto discovery robot IP (optional)
Cloud API control (from inside or outside your home)
Local API control (from your LAN)
Simplified Cleaning Preferences settings.
Firmware 1.6.6 compatible. If you have firmware 2.0 go here.
See rest980 if you need a HTTP REST API interface to use dorita980 throw.

Install

First you need node.js installed and then:

$ npm install dorita980 --save

Quick start via Local request on your LAN

You can control the robot from your local network.

Create myapp.js file with this content:

var dorita980 = require('dorita980');

var myRobotViaLocal = new dorita980.Local('MyUsernameBlid', 'MyPassword', '192.168.1.104', 1); // robot IP address. Firmware major version.

// start to clean!
myRobotViaLocal.start().then((response) => {
  console.log(response);
}).catch((err) => {
  console.log(err);
});

Then install dorita980 using npm and run your program:

$ npm install dorita980 --save
$ node myapp.js

Quick start via Cloud request

You can control the robot from inside or outside your home.

Create myapp.js file with this content:

var dorita980 = require('dorita980');

var myRobotViaCloud = new dorita980.Cloud('MyUsernameBlid', 'MyPassword', 1); // No need robot IP. Firmware major version.

// start to clean!
myRobotViaCloud.start().then((response) => {
  console.log(response);
}).catch((err) => {
  console.log(err);
});

Then install dorita980 using npm and run your program:

$ npm install dorita980 --save
$ node myapp.js

Examples

Get robot status via Cloud request:

var dorita980 = require('dorita980');

var myRobotViaCloud = new dorita980.Cloud('MyUsernameBlid', 'MyPassword', 1); // No need robot IP. Firmware major version.

myRobotViaCloud.getStatus().then(function(data){
  console.log(data);  
}).catch(function(err){
  console.error(err);
});

Pause the robot via Cloud request:

var dorita980 = require('dorita980');

var myRobotViaCloud = new dorita980.Cloud('MyUsernameBlid', 'MyPassword', 1); // No need robot IP. Firmware major version.

// Pause!
myRobotViaCloud.pause().then((response) => {
  console.log(response);
}).catch((err) => {
  console.log(err);
});

Pause the robot via Local request:

var dorita980 = require('dorita980');

var myRobotViaLocal = new dorita980.Local('MyUsernameBlid', 'MyPassword', '192.168.1.104', 1); // robot IP address. Firmware major version.

// Pause!
myRobotViaLocal.pause().then((response) => {
  console.log(response);
}).catch((err) => {
  console.log(err);
});

How to get your username/blid and password

(Needed for Cloud and Local requests)

Download or clone this repo then install, then run npm run getpassword. You need to know your robot IP address (look in your router or scan your LAN network with nmap to find it). Or use dorita980.getRobotIP() method.

$ git clone https://github.com/koalazak/dorita980.git
$ cd dorita980
$ npm install
$ npm run getpassword <robotIP> <firmwareversion>

Example Output:

$ cd dorita980
$ npm install
$ npm run getpassword 192.168.1.103 1
> node ./bin/getpassword.js "192.168.1.103" 1

Make sure your robot is on the Home Base and powered on. Then press and hold the HOME button on your robot until it plays a series of tones (about 2 seconds). Release the button and your robot will flash WIFI light. Then wait...
========>
Good job!
Password: xxxxxxxxxxxxx
Username/blid: yyyyyyyyyyyy
Use this credentials in dorita980 lib :)

Auto discover IP address for local request:

If you dont known the robot IP address to use in dorita980.Local() you can use dorita980.getRobotIP() to find it. This process takes 1 or 2 seconds, so if you known the IP just use it explicity.

var dorita980 = require('dorita980');

dorita980.getRobotIP(function (ierr, ip) {
  if (!ierr) {
    var myRobotViaLocal = new dorita980.Local('MyUsernameBlid', 'MyPassword', ip);

    myRobotViaLocal.getMission().then((response) => {
      console.log(response);
    }).catch((err) => {
      console.log(err);
    });
  } else {
    console.log('error looking for robot IP');
  }
});

Local API Firmware 1.6.6

The library send commands direclty over wifi to your robot. You dont need internet connection.

dorita980 is compatible with node.js > 4.0 But you can use the getpassword feature in node.js < 4.0 using --harmony flag like that:

$ node --harmony ./bin/getpassword.js "192.168.1.104"
