Hi and thank for such useful tool. But as a noob, i still have questions how to use it. Where it should be run? a. From Home Assistant b. From a PC with Python installed? c. From specific Docker/LXC container?

Could you please give a bit more details about how-to use it?

Hi! Thanks for your kind words :).

As the project connects to the Mosquitto broker, it can be executed anywhere that can connects to the broker. The easiest approach is executing it in the same machine as the Mosquitto broker.

If you have more questions, maybe you can explain here your setup and try to figure out what works the best for you :)

Thanks for your reply. I have an MQTT broker running in LXC container. In additional i have LXC container with Zigbee2MQTT. On same host also running VM with HA OS. There also PC running Windows on same network, with Python installed.

So I'd like to run your tool on a PC to generate a file, afterwards it will be copied to HA OS machine with SmartIR installed.
