[Feature request] Integration with Home Assistant

[JohanAke1]

Would love to see an integration with Home Assistant. This would enable much more use cases on what to do with the data and also how to send notifications.

What would an integration with it do?

[JohanAke1]

In short, create sensors of the data available on Ryot side. One could create dashboards based on this data in Home Assistant side too. Not all data would be required to be available in Home Assistant side as it wouldn’t be useful.

At least the initial step would be to make Ryot data send to home assistant.

Here are few examples that I found from quick looking

Would you be willing to write the HA side for this? I do not use it myself. I can guide you on the Ryot side.

[StoffelCPR]

I +1 this. I can help on both sides if needed.

[IgnisDa]

How would you go about building an integration? This is a monorepo so it can contain code for the HA side as well here.

[JohanAke1]

I can try and help with the HA side, haven’t ever done integrations for it though so it will be slow. I think they basically are just python so not over complicated stuff.

Cool. To start, just fork this repo and make a dummy PR. THen I will setup a project for HA. We already have one for kodi (apps/kodi) which is written in Python.
