Remotes
Turn remotes on and off, send commands, and learn or delete commands.
remote has turn-on (on), turn-off (off) and toggle (t). turn-on takes --activity, one of the remote’s activity_list:
ha-bridge remote turn-on living_room --activity "Watch TV"
ha-bridge remote turn-off living_room
Sending commands
send-command sends one or more commands in order, each with --command. --remote-device picks the device they’re for, as the remote’s integration names it:
ha-bridge remote send-command living_room --command power
ha-bridge remote send-command living_room --command volume_up --command volume_up --remote-device tv
ha-bridge remote send-command living_room --command volume_up --num-repeats 5 --delay-secs 0.2
| Flag | Value |
|---|---|
--num-repeats |
Times to repeat the commands (default: 1) |
--delay-secs |
Seconds between commands (default: 0.4) |
--hold-secs |
Seconds to hold each command (default: 0) |
Learning and deleting commands
learn-command waits for you to press buttons on the physical remote and saves them under the names you give. delete-command removes them:
ha-bridge remote learn-command living_room --command power --remote-device tv --command-type ir
ha-bridge remote delete-command living_room --command power --remote-device tv
learn-command also takes --alternative, to save a second code for a command, and --timeout in seconds.
