Use common libraries instead of raw commands

[fredrike]

As this seems to be a package with intent to integrate specific Daikin devices into HomeAssisant it is suggested to use common communication packages I.e. aiohttp for communication and pass the client from ha directly to the underlying package (this code).

Handling commands generated by aiohttp / httpx is not supported at the controller firmware. Currently we can only make use of raw tcp commands over socket connection for communication.

The way you create the tcp socket is similar to what's happening in aiohttp you just need to send the data as raw payload.

I am aware of this but there is a constraint -- header parsing of the device response payload is not possible currently with the current firmware either with aiohttp or httpx. Socket with raw tcp command is needed for device communication.

This is normal HTTP 1.1.

pyiotdevice/pyiotdevice/send_ac_command.py

Line 57 in e781b86

f"POST /acstatus HTTP/1.1\r\n"

I really can't find anything in the code that does anything special.

At first glance, it appears that way, but the aiohttp and httpx libraries also add certain additional header parameters that are not compatible with the device controller firmware. This issue is already on our radar, and a firmware update is required for compatibility.
