You can easily do it by running nodejs on Windows.

Just install nodejs, then use npm to install dorita980. You can then go into your nodejs\node_modules\dorita980 folder and run "node .\bin\getpassword.js <ip address>":

D:\Program Files (x86)\nodejs\node_modules\dorita980>node .\bin\getpassword.js 192.168.0.184
Make sure your robot is on the Home Base and powered on (green lights on). Then press and hold the HOME button on your robot until it plays a series of tones (about 2 seconds). Release the button and your robot will flash WIFI light.
Then press any key here...
Robot Data:
{ ver: '2',
hostname: 'Roomba-99999999999999',
robotname: 'Roomba',
ip: '192.168.0.184',
mac: 'F0:03:8C:96:4E:61',
sw: 'v2.2.9-1',
sku: 'R980020',
nc: 0,
proto: 'mqtt',
blid: '99999999999999' }
Password=> :X:XXXXXXXXXX:ABCDEfghiJKL1234 <= Yes, all this string.
Use this credentials in dorita980 lib :)

This worked great. Thanks for the post.

This is really quite brilliant! I installed the plugin to control my brand new S9+, and it works like a charm. It's now running the roomba every time my house goes into Away mode, and if it's still cleaning when I get home, it automatically docks the roomba.

I installed node.js from here: https://nodejs.org/en/download/
Then followed the instructions here to install doriate980: https://www.npmjs.com/package/dorita980
And finally followed the instructions in shill 's post:

I had this up and running in about 45 minutes; granted I was rather distracted with some "quality" tv while doing it ;-)

Is there the ability to do rooms yet?

Sorry for the dumb question: I did everything in shill's post and it did exactly what was above. What do you do with the robot data after you get it?

edit: Duh - read it over again and I got it - working great. Thanks.

I'm not familiar with nodejs, but have now installed that...

My next question was how do I "use npm to install dorita980"

A quick google got me to here: https://docs.npmjs.com/downloading-a...ckages-locally

So, the MSDOS command line (not from within nodejs) is:

npm install dorita980

Result was:

npm WARN deprecated request@2.88.2: request has been deprecated, see https://github.com/request/request/issues/3142
npm WARN deprecated request-promise@4.2.6: request-promise has been deprecated because it extends the now deprecated request package, see https://github.com/request/request/issues/3142

However, now I do not see any dorita980 subfolder within \Program Files\nodejs\.....

Help!
