Home Assistant authorization

[ardeus-ua]

Is there a way to pass authorization to Home Assistant?

    name: Basics
    url: 'http://ha_ip:8123/api/services/switch/toggle'
    method: post
    headers: {"authorization": "ha_password"}
    content-type: json
    body: '{"entity_id": "light.hall"}'

Gave me 401 error

Hello, this is not implemented on the current version. But I can implement it. Give me a moment.

Now available in version 0.4.2. Thanks for your issue :)

Please close the report if it works well for you.

I guess I was initially wrong with the configuraton. I need "x-ha-access: YOUR_PASSWORD" header to be sent as a one field. And I guess it can be added to HA action config. Is this possible to have it similar to https://github.com/danimtb/dasshio like

    "domain": "light",
    "service": "toggle",
    "service_data": "{\"entity_id\": \"light.room_light\"}"

[Nekmo]

In theory with the latest version it should be possible using your own example:

    name: Basics
    url: 'http://ha_ip:8123/api/services/switch/toggle'
    method: post
    headers: {"x-ha-access": "ha_password"}
    content-type: json
    body: '{"entity_id": "light.hall"}'

Latest release: https://github.com/Nekmo/amazon-dash/releases/tag/v0.4.2 Commit: https://github.com/Nekmo/amazon-dash/commit/5bfbd2c09159344e538504b1e4005f9f5961756e

Let me know if you have problems.

Greetings

I have 401 with the example including {"x-ha-access: ha_password"} And 400 with the example including {"x-ha-access": "ha_password"}

Have you updated Amazon-dash to the latest version? Update it using:

pip install -U amazon-dash

For test the execution run on other console:

nc --listen localhost -p 8123 -v

And change ha_ip to localhost on your amazon-dash configuration.

With this you can see what your Home Assistant server receives.

[ardeus-ua]

nc --listen localhost -p 8123 -v
nc: invalid option -- '-'
usage: nc [-46CDdFhklNnrStUuvZz] [-I length] [-i interval] [-O length]
      [-P proxy_username] [-p source_port] [-q seconds] [-s source]
      [-T toskeyword] [-V rtable] [-w timeout] [-X proxy_protocol]
      [-x proxy_address[:port]] [destination] [port]

I have updated Amazon-dash and changed ip to localhost before restarting the service. Service status shows: 2018-02-26 21:28:52,838 - amazon-dash - WARNING - "http://localhost:8123/api/services/light/toggle" return code 401.

Try to change nc to netcat. If you do not have it installed you will have to install it. If you are running Home Assistant on the same machine, also change the port to test. For example:

netcat --listen localhost -p 8000 -v

Change it also in your config:

    name: Basics
    url: 'http://localhost:8000/api/services/switch/toggle'
    method: post
    headers: {"x-ha-access": "ha_password"}
    content-type: json
    body: '{"entity_id": "light.hall"}'

You can test it without restart the service:

sudo amazon-dash test-device <mac address>

Sometimes by cache or by being too recent Pypi does not install the latest version. Make sure your version is correct by running:

pip list | grep amazon-dash

It worked! Here's the config I have used

  DASH_MAC:
    name: Basics
    url: 'http://localhost:8123/api/services/light/toggle'
    method: post
    content-type: json
    headers: {"x-ha-access": "api_password"}
    body: '{"entity_id": "light.hall"}'

Thank you very much!

[Nekmo]

You are welcome :)

This feature has been included in the development branch.

Is there a way to fire an hass event with this writing?

Change 'http://localhost:8123/api/services/light/toggle to 'http://localhost:8123/api/events/<event name>
