HATS
Home Assistant + NATS = HATS
Features
- Push Home Assistant websocket events to a NATS message queue
- Caching proxy for Home Assistant API
- Clients for some application APIs (limited functionality)
NATS Topics
homeassistant.states.{domain}.{entity}.{state}
- Home Assistant device state changes: payload
homeassistant.attributes.{domain}.{entity}.{state}
- When a device's attributes change but the state hasn't changed: payload
homeassistant.zha.{device IEEE}
- ZHA events: payload
homeassistant.zwave-scene.{device ID}
- ZwaveJS scene events: payload
homeassistant.nfc.{tag ID}
- Home Assistant NFC tag scanned: payload
homeassistant.timer.{timer name}.finished
- Home Assistant timer finished: payload is simply "finished"
schedules.{schedule name}
- HATS schedule finished: payload is simply "finished"
command.{command name}
- Command called via HATS API: payload is a byte array of the HTTP Post body
