Model

Unified event class

When returning resultsets containing EPG or timer items the dict derived class enigma2_http_api.model.EEvent is used.

EEvent attribute	epg	timer	movie
duration [2]	duration_sec	– n/a –	length
item_id	id	eit	– n/a –
longinfo	longdesc	descriptionextended	descriptionExtended
service_name	sname	servicename	servicename
service_reference	sref	serviceref	serviceref
shortinfo	shortdesc	description	description
start_time [1]	begin_timestamp	begin	recordingtime
stop_time [1]	– n/a –	end	– n/a –
title	title	name	eventname

Footnotes

[1]	(1, 2) datetime.datetime instances.

[2]	datetime.timedelta instances.

Model classes and constants.

enigma2_http_api.model.DEFAULT_LOCALTIMEZONE = 'Europe/Berlin'

default/fallback value for local timezone as the enigma2 API returns localised timestamps (not UTC!) one need to set the correct timezone or the results will not match the values shown on the enigma2 device.

enigma2_http_api.model.DT_FORMAT__REAL__KEYS = '%d.%m.%Y %H:%M'

datetime format as used for realbegin/realend key/value pairs of timer items returned by enigma2 API

class enigma2_http_api.model.EEvent(*args, **kwargs)

This is a thin wrapper class to allow unified access to event items’ data.

As the data keys for EPG and timer events (returned by the enigma2 API) are different for the same data values the data is exposed as attributes common to all item types.

Attribute names are inspired by names used in the ETSI EPG specification documents.
