Use this to apply [[NodePyATVInstanceOptions]] (e.g. debug log method) to all further requests

import pyatv from '@sebbo2002/node-pyatv';
const myPyatv = new pyatv({debug: true});
const devices = myPyatv.find();
console.log(devices);
Copy

Checks if pyatv is installed and ready to be used. Will throw an error if not.

Create a [[NodePyATVDevice]] to query the state and control it. At least host and name are required.

Scan the network for Apple TVs by using pyatv's atvscript. See [[NodePyATVFindAndInstanceOptions]] for the options allowed. Use the host / hosts attribute to filter by IP addresses. Resolves with an array of [[NodePyATVDevice]].

import pyatv from '@sebbo2002/node-pyatv';
const myPyATV = new pyatv({debug: true});
const devices = await myPyATV.find();
console.log(devices);

Resolves with the version of pyatv and of the module itself. If a value can't be found, null is returned instead.

Normally node-pyatv ignores error messages if at least one device has been found, but if you always want to receive the error messages, you can set the second argument to true:

const result = await pyatv.find({}, true);
console.log(result.devices);
console.log(result.errors);
