A Python library to wakeup PlayStation (ps3, ps4, ps5) on BlueTooth

PyWakePlaystationX (ps3, ps4, ps5) On BlueTooth

This is a simple Python library to switch on a Sony ps3/ps4/ps5 using Bluetooth. This version extends the previous one developed for PlayStation 4 only.

The main objective is to include it into Home Assistant components to provide a "Wake PsX On Bt" service.

How does it work ?

The Playstation with bluetooth controler can be simply switched on via :

• Spoofing a previously paired controler (SixAxis/DualShock3, DualShock4 or DualSense) BDADDR
• Initiating a HCI connection to the PlayStation BDADDR

Supported Devices

The module tests the adapter support via a hci_read_local_manufacturer python implementation and read the manufacturer returned value from OCF_READ_LOCAL_VERSION
Currently supported adapters :

• Broadcom devices (manufacturer = 15)
• Cypress Semiconductor devices (manufacturer = 305)
• Intel devices (manufacturer = 2)

Get Bluetooth addresses over USB

Plug the DualShock3/4 or DualSense controler on your computer using micro USB cable.
Once pywakepsXonbt is installed, run the following command from a python shell:

>>> import wakepsXonbt
>>> wakepsXonbt.get_bt_addr()
{'type': 'dualshock3'/'dualshock4'/'dualsense', 'dsbt_address': '00:1F:E2:12:34:56', 'psXbt_address': '90:CD:B6:12:34:56'}

No external dependency

Recent versions (0.7+) do not use external dependencies for bluetooth and HCI.
