[APP][Pro] Home Assistant - Community App

Is it a humidifier domain?
Based on the HA docs it has just a mode and some sensors/target values?

Yeah, it is listed as such: Entities and domains - Home Assistant . But it could be a building block, as of your documentation.

Running

{%- set unique_domains = states | map(attribute='domain') |list | unique | list -%}
{%- for domain in unique_domains -%}
- {{domain + "\n"}}
{%- endfor -%}

in developer tools it gives me a domain “Humidifier”.

SOLVED: Slider Integration: [APP][Pro] Home Assistant - Community App - #1279 by Stefan_1


To control the RCT PV-Battery charge possibilities in HA, I have buttons and sliders in Home Assistant. I got the buttons included in Homey, but how can I include sliders if they (like the buttons) are not connected to a device within Home Assistant? (two way of corse)

I got the Homey extension installed via HACS on HA, but how can I get those sliders connected? Is deeper knowledge of HA necessary? :face_with_peeking_eye: already read this: GitHub - RonnyWinkler/homeassistant.homey: Homey compound device component

Don’t use compount device. It’s an old and deprecated version.
Better use custom device and add all entities in repair view. Much more possibilities.
If your slider is an input_number entitiy, it should appear as slider in Homey.

Additionally:
When your slider is a number entity (as slider or as input box), you can add it to Homey as a slider like this:

1000044616

Hi @RonnyW & @Peter_Kawa,

Thanks soo much, you pointed me in the right direction. But that is only one way? (Homey > HA)?

I made the following mistake:

On the desktop, there is no possibility to edit the custom device.
In the app, there is that possibility.

Well that was a crazy trip to find that out :sweat_smile::sweat_smile:

Desktop:

vs mobile app

Hi Stefan,

You’re welcome!

It’s possible, but not from the Settings screen:
Right click the tile, and select “Repair”.

New test version 1.10.3:

  • Avoid unnecessary capability updates:
    Prevents capability updates if the value of an manually added entity doesn’t change or if it’s an invalid state (like “unavailable” for boolean capabilities).

I got a hint that DC app was showing an capability changed event even if the capability was updated with the same value (and “value changed” flows are not started in that case) or.
This update prevents capability updates if the value does not change.
In addition the “unavailable” state for boolean capabilities is ignored and the old capability value is kept.
This affects only manually added entities (via repair screen).
Sensor devices still get “unavailable” if the bound entity gets “unavailable” in HA.

Based on a request for hints I made a new blog post about adding a house battery to HomeyEnergy:

Hello @RonnyW ,

is it possible to add a image as a camera with your app? I am trying different solutions, but can not figure out how to do it. Seems like I can not choose a image for the device class “camera”.

If my findings are correct: Is it possible for you to add image.xx as a option under the “camera” group (Device class), when adding a new device?

My use case is that I have transitioned from the Custom Roborock integration to the core version. The image updates like a camera, but the entitie is a image.

Kind regards
Marius

The camera device is showing the image provided by the HA entity. That means, you need a HA entity that offers a snapshot URL attribute.

Hi.
Is it possible to add suport for Dehumidifiers? I think it is much like Climate, but simpler.

Here are the entities for my Eeese Dehumidifier Adam conbtrolled through Tuya integration:

The fan control in HA looks like this:

The humidifier control looks like this:

Thanks.

I also have had another issue for a while.
I have an issue where I’m not able to add HA devices to Homey on my phone.
The reason is that I can not find the HA integration in the application list.
I can find the HA app on my.homey.app but it has lost it’s name.

When restarting Homey, I can add HA enteties. After restarting HA app I can not see the HA app anymore when I try to add an entity from HA.

Rgds.

I have included a humidifier with the custom component, should be pretty much the same:

You should use attributes of your different entities. You can select the different attributes when you add a Entitie to the custom componetn.

A list of availabel capabilites can be found here:

Haven’t seen this before.
Is the HA running in that moment? I would say the app is stopped/crashed then.

Yes. HA is running. I can add a new entity in my.homey.app, but not from phone.

The screenshot of your Android (?) smartphone only shows 16 apps. In the WebApp 21 apps. Aeotec and Adax WiFi is also missing, for example. Have you scrolled all the way down? Have you used the search field?
However, the name of the “Home Assistant Community” app should of course appear in the WebApp.

When adding new device, I can see 20 apps on my phone and 21 in my.homey.app. Home Assistant Community is gone in the phone and has lost it’s name in my.homey.app.
Everythig else works as normal. If I go to app settings all my installed apps including HA shows.

I have already added the device as Fan in Homey and added other entities, but it is not very easy to change the desired humidity. I can of cause use an input number.

How does your device look like in Homey? Can you please add screenshots?

Rgds.

I will take a look at it if I will find some time in an easter egg :upside_down_face:
