HADotNet.Entities 0.1.2

HADotNet.Entities

A wrapper around the excellent HADotNet.Core REST api by @qJake with strongly typed Entity classes

Features

• .NET Standard 2.0 cross-platform library
• DI-friendly initialization
• Home Assistant entities represented by strongly typed C# classes
  • Strongly typed methods (TurnOn, TurnOff etc.)
  • Strongly typed attributes (climate.CurrentTemperature, mediaPlayer.IsMuted etc.)

Does NOT (yet?) include

• Websockets or any real-time update strategy

Currently (partially) implemented HA domains

• binary_sensor
• climate (TurnOn, TurnOff, SetTemperature, SetHvacMode)
• light (TurnOn, TurnOff, Toggle)
• switch
• media_player (TurnOn, TurnOff, Toggle, SelectSource, Play, Pause, Stop, Mute, VolumeUp, VolumeDown, VolumeSet)
• sensor
• switch (TurnOn, TurnOff, Toggle)

Example usage

Initialization

// Initialize the HADotNet.Core clients
ClientFactory.Initialize("https://my-ha-instance.duckdns.org", "long-lived-access-token");

var entityClient = ClientFactory.GetClient<EntityClient>();
var statesClient = ClientFactory.GetClient<StatesClient>();

// Initialize an instance of the EntitiesService
var entitiesService = new EntitiesService(entityClient, statesClient);

Toggle a light

// Get all light entities
var lights = await entitiesService.GetEntities<Light>();

// Turn on all lights
await Task.WhenAll(lights.Select(light => light.TurnOn()));

Set the temperature of a climate entity

// Get a single climate entity
var climate = await entitiesService.GetEntity<Climate>("living_room"); // climate.living_room

Console.WriteLine($"Current target temperature: {climate.Temperature}");

await climate.SetTemperature(20);

Console.WriteLine($"New target temperature: {climate.Temperature}");

Explicitly sync an entity after 10 seconds

var light = await entitiesService.GetEntity<Light>("living_room"); // light.living_room

Thread.Sleep(10000);

await light.Update();
