This integration will give Node-RED the ability to create/update binary sensors, sensors and switches in Home Assistant. Event nodes in Node-RED can be exposed to Home Assistant as switches which will allow them to enable and disable flows from the Home Assistant UI or service calls.
Must have node-red-contrib-home-assistant-websocket installed in Node-RED. (minimum version 0.20)
- Create and update binary sensors, sensors, and switches from Node-RED
- Disable and enable Node-RED flows from Home Assistant UI
- Create Home Assistant webhooks and handle them in Node-RED
- Use Device triggers and action from Node-RED
- Click install.
- Restart Home Assistant
- Refresh your browser window (bug in HA where it doesn't update the integration list after a reboot)
- In the Home Assistant UI go to "Configuration" -> "Integrations" click "+" and search for "Node-RED"
Once installed and added via Integrations all configuration is done from Node-RED.
