[Enhancement] Home Assistant component

[GorkaMM]

It would be really great to have this script turned into a Home Assistant component as there is a huge community there and it would make it very easy to setup and automate Philips Air Purifiers in the Smart Home environment.

The proper way to do this would be to move the functionality of py-air-control into its own library. Then the CLI and the Home Assistant component could use the library.

Could be, but since __name__ is checked in py-air-control it can also directly be used I suppose

Exactly. There is nothing that prevents you from importing the airctrl package and using the AirClient class in 3rd party solutions.

I've done this for a nagios compatible monitoring plugin. Maybe this helpes someone else to integrate in other monitoring / smart home tools:
