HAKA!
This is a Home Assistant Kodi Addon (HAKA!). The addon allows users with a Home Assistant installation to browse their Home Assistant entities (such as lights, switches and sensors) in a Kodi directory structure. Depending on the type of device actions are possible such as toggling lights, switches or start a robotic vacuum.
Prerequisites:
- Home Assistant 2021.2.1 or higher (older versions have a different API)
- Kodi Leia / Kodi Matrix
Installation
-
Download the zip file (Kodi Leia / Kodi Matrix)
-
In Home Assistant navigate to your profile (bottom icon in the side-menu).
-
Scroll down and generate a long life token (long live the tokens!).
-
Write down the token / carve it in a stone / memorize / use a carrier pigeon and send it to yourself or.... just copy the token.
-
Launch Kodi >> Add-ons >> Get More >> .. >> Install from zip file
-
Enter your Home Assistant IP and port (i.e. https://myfancypansyhainstallation.duckdns.org:8123)
-
Enter the token obtained in step four (don't forget to release the pigeon if you used one)
-
Set up the domains you would like to browse from your couch.
Enjoy!
