Home Assistant

Home Assistant is a home automation platform running on Python 3. The goal of Home Assistant is to be able to track and control all devices at home and offer a platform for automating control.

To get started:

python3 -m pip install homeassistant
hass --open-ui

Check out the website for a demo, installation instructions, tutorials and documentation.

Examples of devices it can interface it:

Monitoring connected devices to a wireless router: OpenWrt, Tomato, Netgear, DD-WRT, TPLink, ASUSWRT and any SNMP capable WAP/WRT
Philips Hue lights, WeMo switches, Edimax switches, Efergy energy monitoring, RFXtrx sensors, and Tellstick devices and sensors
Google Chromecasts, Music Player Daemon, Logitech Squeezebox, Kodi (XBMC), iTunes (by way of itunes-api), and Amazon Fire TV (by way of python-firetv)
Support for ISY994 (Insteon and X10 devices), Z-Wave, Nest Thermostats, Arduino, Raspberry Pi, and Modbus
Integrate data from the Bitcoin network, meteorological data from OpenWeatherMap and Forecast.io, Transmission, or SABnzbd.
See full list of supported devices

Built home automation on top of your devices:

Keep a precise history of every change to the state of your house
Turn on the lights when people get home after sun set
Turn on lights slowly during sun set to compensate for less light
Turn off all lights and devices when everybody leaves the house
Offers a REST API and can interface with MQTT for easy integration with other projects
Allow sending notifications using Instapush, Notify My Android (NMA), PushBullet, PushOver, Slack, and Jabber (XMPP)

The system is built modular so support for other devices or actions can be implemented easily. See also the section on architecture and the section on creating your own components.

If you run into issues while using Home Assistant or during development of a component, check the Home Assistant help section how to reach us.
