This custom Home Assistant integration is a work in progress that uses the newly released API 2.0 by Govee. Feel free to contribute, all help is appreciated.
You can install this integration with HACS or manually.
After installing HACS (click here for instructions), open the custom repositories section and paste the URL of this repo in. Then set the category to "integration". Then open the integrations page and add 'goveelife'.
Copy the custom_components/goveelife to your custom_components folder. Reboot Home Assistant and configure the 'goveelife' integration via the integrations page.
When you add the goveelife integration, you will be prompted for an API key. To get this, you will need to:
Note: the integration has the option of changing the polling frequence which is how often it will hit the Govee API to check for updates. If you set this value too low, you will be rate limited and you will not be able to control your devices.
I need API responses so I can continue to build out this integration. You can provide these resonses by opening an "issue" at the top of this repository. It's pretty simple. Use any online API query tool, and submit a GET requ est to "https://openapi.api.govee.com/router/api/v1/user/devices". Make sure you include a single header called "Govee-API-Key" which should contain your API key aquired in your Govee app. When you submit the reponse as an issue above, make sure you alter any MAC addresses, and DO NOT incluse your API key in the post!
For many folks setting up something like Postman or whatever to do the API call may be overkill... I'm pretty sure all Mac OSX, Linux and Windows 11 come with cURL installed by default... curl -H 'Govee-API-Key: YOURKEYHERE' -o 'Govee API response.json' -X GET https://openapi.api.govee.com/router/api/v1/user/devices
