Roomba Plugin Broken

[FlyingDiver]

iRobot release version 2.0.0-34 of the Roomba firmware, which changed the network protocol used to communicate with the robot. As a result, the plugin is unusable until the new protocol is reverse engineered.

Progress is being made on this (not by me), and as soon as a working implementation is available, I will update the plugin. If you're interested in following progress on this, go to https://github.com/koalazak/dorita980/issues/10

Well, the new API has been reverse engineered, but the only implementation is in JavaScript, and it uses the MQTT protocol (instead of HTTP). So it's going to take a few days to get it ported to Python.

Good luck!
I can't stand javascript.

(I did look at script to convert from javascript to python - which seemed to work but produced the most unreadable code I have ever seen and didn't really seem like a good solution.)

Hi Joe,

I have rewritten plugin/used it as base to work with new firmware and mqtt protocol.
