Home Assistant Intergration - Sample

[denxhun]

I really love this project, a real gap filler. I've seen in the description that integration to Home Assistant is possible via the MQTT interface.

Could you please share sample integrations to HA? I'm curious about the UI and the automation part as well.

PS: I'm happily contribute but no experience with this project yet.

[visualapproach]

Thank you. Yes I will do that when I have time to do so. I use nodered to catch the MQTT messages, and HACS nodered integration to make sensors available outside nodered. Then I can use the standard lovelace cards.

[RGarrett93]

Yes please, if you can publish an example for Home Assistant, I've got it working nicely on Node-Red with MQTT and have integrated that with Smart NORA (Google) but I'm fairly new to HA and cant seem to get HACS node red integration to show the states correctly.

[visualapproach]

I've updated the nodered flows folder now (development branch)

[RGarrett93]

Thank you very much @visualapproach, its working great with your example.

I particularly like the push notification to the HA app, I've got an issue with the bubbles randomly turning on and I cant work out what's causing it on my end, so now I'll get a notification for when they trigger and hopefully find the issue on the debug.

Good 😊 Here is my HA card

I wish I was able to do this! This is exactly what I have been wanting to accomplish.

I just wanted to thank @visualapproach again for this excellent project. I have just upgraded to the latest version after running happily for a long time. All the extra features/sensors that drop right into home assistant are amazing!

For anyone interested, this is my current hot tub page on HomeAssistant

If anyone was interested in the code, it's here, just add a new card, select manual and paste in - you will need to have Mushroom cards Mini Graph Card and installed from HACS.

This is also the Node-Red flow I use to get the "Spa Display" sensor. I haven't put the time into converting it into home assistant.

Thanks for this 👌 It took a while, but I got most of this working. I had to rename some entities in your card config because I have extra prefix (eg sensor.layzspa_wifi_controller_layzspa_temp_c). I also noticed that everything was in farenheit so had to change that too. Happy to help anyone else attempting the same.

I'm just stuck with the temperature controller still being in farenheit :

[visualapproach]

Hi there, the climate card is converting everything thrown at it to the unit set in HA general settings. So go to HA settings-system-general and set C Thx

[mattburns]

Huzzah, that did it, thanks 💯
