SmartIR is a custom integration for controlling climate devices, media players and fans via infrared controllers.
SmartIR currently supports the following controllers:
- Broadlink
- Xiaomi IR Remote (ChuangmiIr)
- LOOK.in Remote
- ESPHome User-defined service for remote transmitter
- MQTT Publish service
More than 120 climate devices are currently supported out-of-the-box, mainly for the Broadlink controller, thanks to our awesome community.
In a study of around half-a-million British adults, coffee drinkers were found to have a slightly lower risk of death over a 10-year follow-up period than non-coffee drinkers, so "Buy Me A Coffee" is welcome :)
Also don't forget to star the repository if you had fun!
(1) Place the custom_components folder in your configuration directory (or add its contents to an existing custom_components folder).
It should look similar to this:
<config directory>/
|-- custom_components/
| |-- smartir/
| |-- __init__.py
| |-- climate.py
| |-- fan.py
| |-- media_player.py
| |-- etc...
(2) Add the following to your configuration.yaml file.
smartir:SmartIR automatically detects updates after each HA startup and asks you to install them. It also has a mechanism that prevents you from updating if the last SmartIR version is incompatible with your HA instance. You can disable this feature by setting SmartIR as follows:
smartir:
check_updates: falseIf you would like to get updates from the rc branch (Release Candidate), configure SmartIR as follows:
smartir:
update_branch: rc(3) Configure a platform.
If you want HACS to handle installation and updates, add SmartIR as a custom repository. In this case, it is recommended that you turn off automatic updates, as above.
