hass-cli 0.5: Area, Device Registry and event CLI

Comments

With Home Assistant 0.87 out we got Areas and Device Registry UI thus it is time to do a release of hass-cli that allows you to operate on these in a terminal.

This release adds the following features:

  • Area list, create, delete, and rename
  • Device list and assign
  • Event watch

To get it run:

$ pip3 install homeassistant-cli

And once you have configured some of the new things you can like:

Create an area:

$ hass-cli area create Attic
-  id: 1
   type: result
   success: true
   result:
      area_id: 83977bdb16524579a856560925a791a7
      name: Attic

List all your areas:

$ hass-cli area list
ID                                NAME
295afc88012341ecb897cd12d3fbc6b4  Bathroom

83977bdb16524579a856560925a791a7  Attic

List devices matching a pattern:

$ hass-cli device list "Kitchen.*Light*"
ID                                NAME                      MODEL                    MANUFACTURER    AREA
f9cad07069c74d519fbe84811c91f1fb  Kitchen Light 2           LCT003                   Philips         e6ebd3e6f6e04b63a0e4a109b4748584
d02ec64623ae4407a80b903cbc061511  Kitchen Light 3           LCT003                   Philips         e6ebd3e6f6e04b63a0e4a109b4748584
820c9e511fce42ea92b228c18710aa56  Kitchen Light 1           LCT003                   Philips         e6ebd3e6f6e04b63a0e4a109b4748584
417dd42c0c764765aa29580d77b8b7ad  Kitchen Light 5           LCT003                   Philips         e6ebd3e6f6e04b63a0e4a109b4748584

Like with entity list you can filter and pipe results to get interesting things.

How about a inventory count?

$ hass-cli --no-headers --columns manufacturer,model device list | sort | uniq -c | sort -nr
10 IKEA of Sweden      TRADFRI bulb GU10 WS 400lm
 8 Philips             SML001
 7 LUMI                lumi.sensor_magnet.aq2
 6 Sonos               Play:1
 6 Philips             LTW012
 6 Philips             LCT003

 3 LUMI                lumi.vibration.aq1
 3 IKEA of Sweden      TRADFRI transformer 30W
 ....

And then my favorite feature, assign of area to a device:

$ hass-cli device assign Kitchen "Kitchen Light 2"

or even more powerful, bulk-assign to any entity matching a certain pattern:

$ hass-cli device assign --match "Kitchen" Kitchen
  Successfully assigned 'Kitchen' to 'Kitchen'
  Successfully assigned 'Kitchen' to 'Kitchen table left'
  Successfully assigned 'Kitchen' to 'Kitchen table right'
  Successfully assigned 'Kitchen' to 'Kitchen left middle at window'
  Successfully assigned 'Kitchen' to 'Kitchen front right at fridge'
  Successfully assigned 'Kitchen' to 'Kitchen left back at hub'
  Successfully assigned 'Kitchen' to 'Kitchen left back at bar'
  Successfully assigned 'Kitchen' to 'Kitchen right back at sink'
  Successfully assigned 'Kitchen' to 'Kitchen right middle at oven'
  Successfully assigned 'Kitchen' to 'Kitchen Light 2'
  Successfully assigned 'Kitchen' to 'Kitchen Light 3'
  .... 

And finally as a little bonus feature you can now watch the event bus from the CLI:

All events:

$ hass-cli event watch

or specific events:

$ hass-cli event watch call_service

At the moment the output is raw JSON, that will improve in a future release.
