ha-switchscene

Small utility which I use to activate Home Assistant scenes via keyboard shortcuts.

The utility will also send notifications when it changs the scene or when errors occur, although this currently only works on Linux-based systems with the notify-send application present. Install libnotify-bin on debian or Ubuntu.

Usage

ha-switchscene -url "http://homeassistant.local:8123" -scene "scene.some_scene" -name "Some Scene"

Storing long-lived token

ha-switchscene retrieves your long-lived Home Assistant token from your keyring. To install your Home Assistant token into your keyring, please run ha-switchscene in storeToken mode:

ha-switchscene -storeToken -url "http://homeassistant.local:8123"

Paste in your token: Note that your input will not be shown back to you.

Every time you now use ha-swichscene with the same Home Assistant URL, your stored token will be used.
