This python module controls and monitors Tuya compatible WiFi Smart Devices (Plugs, Switches, Lights, Window Covers, etc.) using the local area network (LAN). This is a compatible replacement for the pytuya PyPi module. Tuya devices are designed to communicate with the TuyaCloud but most also expose a local area network API, allowing us to directly control the devices without using the cloud. This python module provides a socket based way to poll status and issue commands to these devices. NOTE: This module requires the devices to have already been activated by Smart Life App (or similar).
