Documentation

pyamplipi

pyAmpliPi is a Python library that allows you to control an AmpliPi programmatically via the restful api provided by the device.

The get_status() function returns a Status object which contains the current running configuration for the controller including the firmware and configuration files used. This can be used to verify connectivity to a controller and keep-alive/healthchecks regularly, however should be limited to once every 60 seconds.

As mentioned above, the Status object contains the overall state of all subobjects and should not be used for calls that require updates more often. In these cases, the specific endpoints should be used:

  • get_inputs
  • get_sources
  • get_groups
  • get_zones

Set Methods are provided to update inputs, sources, zones, and groups.
