Overview of Home Assistant#

The Home Assistant API unlocks the potential to automate and interact with your smart home devices programmatically. With Pipedream, you can tap into this power, triggering workflows based on events in your home, such as motion detection or door openings, and controlling devices based on external data sources or schedules. This integration allows for the creation of personalized, complex scenarios that can enhance security, energy efficiency, and convenience within your smart home.

Connect Home Assistant#

import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
  props: {
    home_assistant: {
      type: "app",
      app: "home_assistant",
    }
  },
  async run({steps, $}) {
    return await axios($, {
      url: `https://${this.home_assistant.$auth.hostname}/api`,
      headers: {
        Authorization: `Bearer ${this.home_assistant.$auth.token}`,
        "Content-Type": `application/json`,
      },
    })
  },
})

Overview of Python#

Develop, run and deploy your Python code in Pipedream workflows. Integrate seamlessly between no-code steps, with connected accounts, or integrate Data Stores and manipulate files within a workflow.

This includes installing PyPI packages, within your code without having to manage a requirements.txt file or running pip.

Below is an example of using Python to access data from the trigger of the workflow, and sharing it with subsequent workflow steps:

Connect Python#

def handler(pd: "pipedream"):
  # Reference data from previous steps
  print(pd.steps["trigger"]["context"]["id"])
  # Return data for use in future steps
  return {"foo": {"test":True}}
