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.
