WAGO PLC tools (29, 8 write)
write = sends, deletes, buys or postsRead from the package source without running it. The installed server may list more.
create_filewrite actionAllocate a file_id for uploading content into a file_id-typed parameter.
create_watchlistwrite actionCreate a server-side watchlist of parameters for efficient repeated polling.
delete_method_runwrite actionFree a server-side run result before it expires on its own. Optional housekeeping, not required for correctness.
delete_watchlistwrite actionDelete a watchlist to free server resources before timeout.
describe_plcGet capability summary for a PLC: counts + feature names. Cheap, cached.
download_fileDownload a file's content as base64. Pairs with a parameter whose dataType is file_id.
find_methodsSearch method IDs by substring/fuzzy match. Returns up to `limit` matches (default 20).
find_parametersSearch parameter IDs by substring/fuzzy match. Returns up to `limit` matches (default 20, max 255).
get_deviceGet a device resource plus the features it exposes (one call).
get_enum_definitionGet an enum definition's cases (value → stringValue). Useful to inspect an enum's full case list directly.
get_featureGet a feature plus its composition: nested features, contained parameter/method definitions (one call).
get_file_metadataHEAD a file_id — size/content-type without downloading the body.
get_methodGet method metadata with inline inArgs/outArgs signatures. One call gives the full schema needed for invoke_method.
get_method_runwrite actionPoll an async method run. Use after invoke_method(wait=False) to check status.
get_parameterRead a single parameter value. Resolves enum values to human-readable labels.
get_parameter_definitionGet a parameter's definition: writeable, userSetting, dataType, related enum — without reading its value.
get_parameter_instanceGet one class-parameter instance: its device, own parameters, and methods (one call).
get_parameter_referenced_instancesFor an instance_identity_ref-typed parameter: the class instances that reference it.
get_parameters_bulkRead one parameter from multiple PLCs in parallel — one call instead of N.
get_plc_audit_logReturn recent audit log entries, newest first.
invoke_methodInvoke a method. Pass `arguments` as a flat dict {name: value}.
list_method_runsList past runs of a method still held server-side (audit/inspection use).
list_parameter_instancesList instance numbers of a class-typed parameter (dataType 'instantiations'). Use get_parameter_instance for detail.
list_plcsList all reachable WAGO PLCs. Use first to find a target IP.
list_watchlistsList watchlist IDs still active server-side (e.g. after a restart, to find orphans).
read_watchlistRead current values from an existing watchlist. Resets the timeout.
set_parameterwrite actionWrite a single parameter. Prefer set_parameters for more than one — same PATCH-per-call cost either way.
set_parameterswrite actionWrite multiple parameters in one PATCH call. Pre-validates writeability from cache.
upload_filewrite actionUpload whole file content (base64-encoded) to a file_id from create_file.
