ConnectLife integration for Home Assistant

You can install using HACS or download.

If you have HACS installed, add this repository (oyvindwe/connectlife-ha) as a custom repository of type "Integration".

See https://hacs.xyz/docs/faq/custom_repositories/

Download the connectlife directory and place in your <config>/custom_components/.

After installing, you need to restart Home Assistant.

Finally, add "ConnectLife" as an integration in the UI, and provide the username and password for your ConnectLife account.

You device and all their status values should show up.

Any unknown device will show up as sensors with names based on their properties. As there are a lot of exposed sensors, all unknown sensors are hidden by default. Access the device or entity list to view sensors and change visibility.

Please, please, please contribute PRs with mapping files for your devices!

ConnectLife properties can be mapped to any of these entity types:

• Binary sensor
• Climate
• Humidifier
• Number
• Select
• Sensor
• Switch
• Water heater

Some devices will beep on every configuration change. To disable this, go to the ConnectLife integration and click "Configure" → "Configure a device" and select the device you want to disable beeping for.

Entity service connectlife.set_value can be used to set values. Use with caution, as there is no validation if property is writeable or that the value is legal to set.

1. The service can be accessed from Developer tools - Services.
2. Search for service name "ConnectLife: Set value"
3. Select entity as target.
4. Enter value
5. Call service.

It is possible to guard against set_value by setting read_only: true in the data dictionary on the sensor, e.g.

  - property: f_status 
    sensor:
      read_only: true

Please ignore the following warning in the log:

Entity None (<class 'custom_components.connectlife.climate.ConnectLifeClimate'>) implements HVACMode(s): auto, off and therefore implicitly supports the turn_on/turn_off methods without setting the proper ClimateEntityFeature. Please report it to the author of the 'connectlife' custom integration

Missing features:

Missing features:

• Setting state except to off/one defined state

You have to create a ConnectLife account with username/password. SSO using other identity providers is not supported. Appliances can be shared with multiple accounts, so this should not be a blocker. See #99 for more info.

Note that users at least in Russia and China can't log in using this integration. See discussion in bilan/connectlife-api-connector#25
