Pyecobee: A Python implementation of the ecobee API
Pyecobee is a simple, elegant, and object oriented implementation of the ecobee API in Python. It is compatible with Python 2.6/2.7/3.3+
Warning: Pyecobee has been tested with an ecobee Smart Si. Though the following methods have not been tested I believe they should work find. Please create an issue or even better create a pull request if you encounter an issue with any of them.
- control_plug: I don't own an ecobee smart plug, so couldn't test this function
- reset_preferences: I didn't want to wipe my thermostat's settings
- set_occupied: Can only be used by an EMS thermostat
- unlink_voice_engine: Requires a thermostat with voice control
- update_sensor: Requires an ecobee3 or ecobee4 thermostat
- All Hierarchy requests: Accessible to EMS and Utility accounts only
- list_sets
- list_users
- add_set
- remove_set
- rename_set
- move_set
- add_user
- remove_user
- unregister_user
- update_user
- register_thermostat
- unregister_thermostat
- move_thermostat
- assign_thermostat
- All Utility requests: Accessible to Utility accounts only
- list_demand_response
- issue_demand_response
- cancel_demand_response
- issue_demand_management
- All Runtime Report Job requests: Accessible to Utility accounts only
- create_runtime_report_job
- list_runtime_report_job_status
- cancel_runtime_report_job
Warning: ecobee's documentation for the following object definitions is unavailable and as such any request returning any of these objects will throw an Exception
- ECPDemandResponse (https://www.ecobee.com/home/developer/api/documentation/v1/objects/ECPDemandResponse.shtml)
- Energy (https://www.ecobee.com/home/developer/api/documentation/v1/objects/Energy.shtml)
- TimeOfUse (https://www.ecobee.com/home/developer/api/documentation/v1/objects/TimeOfUse.shtml)
Disclaimer: Any ecobee API Keys, Authorization/Access/Refresh Tokens used in the following examples are fake.
Whereas JSON notation is used for the serialization/deserialization of request/response objects sent to and from the ecobee API, Pyecobee's interface is based on core Python data types and user defined objects instead. Pyecobee handles the serialization of Python objects into JSON request objects and deserialization of JSON response objects into Python objects thus completely alleviating the developer's need to create/parse JSON objects.
authorize_response = ecobee_service.authorize()
pin = authorize_response.ecobee_pin
code = authorize_response.code
scope = authorize_response.scope
expires_in = authorize_response.expires_in
interval = authorize_response.intervalTo install Pyecobee:
$ pip install pyecobeeEnjoy.
Pyecobee comes with extensive documentation. Use dir and help to explore all the details. .. code-block:: python
>>> from pyecobee import * >>> dir(EcobeeService) >>> help(EcobeeService)
The EcobeeService class provides the ecobee API implementation.
To use Pyecobee follow these steps
- Import the modules
- Instantiate an EcobeeService object
- Complete the authorization sequence if required (authorize + request_tokens)
- Refresh tokens if required (refresh_tokens)
- Invoke the needed ecobee API requests/functions
All Pyecobee user defined objects overload __repr__, __str__, and implement a pretty_format method.

import shelve

import pytz
from six.moves import input
from pyecobee import *
logger = logging.getLogger(__name__)
def persist_to_shelf(file_name, ecobee_service):

# Now make your requests :)All access tokens must be refreshed periodically. Access tokens expire 3600 seconds (1 hour) from the time they were refreshed. There are two patterns to refresh the access token.
- Get the current date/time in UTC
- Compare the current date/time to the date/time on which the access and refresh token are due to expire
- Re-authorize app if the current date/time is later than the refresh token expiry date/time
- Refresh tokens if the current date/time is later than the access token expiry date/time

token_response = refresh_tokens(ecobee_service)The ecobee API returns status code 14 to indicate that a request was attempted using an expired access token. All non-successful ecobee API responses are wrapped into the EcobeeApiException. The following code snippet demonstrates how to refresh an expired access token
try:
thermostat_summary_response = ecobee_service.request_thermostats_summary(selection=Selection(
selection_type=SelectionType.REGISTERED.value,
selection_match='',
include_equipment_status=True))
except EcobeeApiException as e:
if e.status_code == 14:
token_response = ecobee_service.refresh_tokens()Some of the ecobee API requests expect the date and time to be in thermostat time, while others expect the date and time to be in UTC time.
Any EcobeeService method that accepts a datetime object as an argument expects the argument to be passed in thermostat time. The datetime object passed must be a timezone aware object.
import pytz
from datetime import datetime
from pytz import timezone
eastern = timezone('US/Eastern')
start_date_time=eastern.localize(datetime(2017, 5, 1, 10, 0, 0), is_dst=True) # 2017/05/01 10:00:00 -0400The method will then either use the passed in datetime object as is, or convert it to its UTC time equivalent depending on the requirements of the ecobee API request being executed.
Your code should be prepared to handle the following Exceptions
- EcobeeApiException: Raised if a request results in an ecobee API error response
- EcobeeAuthorizationException: Raised if a request results in a standard or extended OAuth error response
- EcobeeRequestsException: Raised if a request results in an exception being raised by the underlying requests module
- EcobeeHttpException: Raised if a request results in any other HTTP error
