About:
Homeassistant-cli is a command-line wrapper for the Home Assistant REST API. It simplifies interacting with a Home Assistant instance by providing easy commands for service calls, entity management, and state retrieval. This tool is designed for developers and power users who prefer terminal-based automation and scripting over the web UI.
|
Key Features:
- Simple command-line interface for the Home Assistant API
- Support for service calls, state retrieval, and event firing
- Configuration management for multiple Home Assistant instances
- Colorized output and easy-to-use syntax
|
Use Cases:
- Automating Home Assistant tasks via shell scripts
- Quickly inspecting entity states and attributes from the terminal
- Triggering automations or services from the command line
|
Alternatives:
-
curl
– More verbose and requires manual header/token management, whereas homeassistant-cli abstracts these details.
-
Home Assistant WebSocket API
– Better for real-time, bidirectional communication, while the CLI is optimized for simple request/response tasks.
