hass-lite

A lightweight python3 client for Home-Assistant

Uses websockets to connect to a Home Assistant server, mirrors state locally, and allows client applications to set up callbacks for changes to the state of specific entities.

Usage

Initializing Hass Lite

Initialize a server object

server = Hass(host, api_token)

Add callbacks

server.add_callback('sun.sun', 
  lambda state, attributes: print(f"Sun is {state}")
)

Running the Client

Start the server with an asyncio coroutine

server.monitor()

Start the server in an asyncio event loop

server.run_event_loop()

Start the server in a new thread

server.start_thread()

Directly Accessing State

print(server["sun.sun"])
