Don’t worry, we will try to keep our usual release cycle and not start to release every day.

+ +

We guess that you already know: The Raspberry Pi image is available now. For Hassbian, @Landrash has combined the most essential parts for a Home Assistant setup in an easy-to-use image for the Raspberry Pi device family. Hassbian is quite young, thus we are looking forward to recieve feedback, issue report, and suggestions to improve it.

+ +

A large amount of resources of the development are still focusing on the effort to move Home Assistant further to asynchronous programming. It’s a labor-intensive task, comes with segmentation faults, and unstable instances when certain combinations of sensors are used. The benefit will be more speed in the near future.

+ +

To reduce the run-time of your tests, @balloob did a lot of tweaking. For now the RFXtrx tests are excluded which cut the needed time for running on your Pull Request in half.

+ +

Documentation

+ +

All configuration sample entries are now minimized. This should help to avoid problem for starters and newbies as they only get what’s needed and not a full sample with all optional entries. If there is an issue with an entry in your configuration.yaml file the error message will provide you an URL that point to the documentation.

+ +

+ +

+ +

As soon as the Hacktoberfest started there were a lot of incoming Pull Requests for the documentation. A huge “Thank you” to all participants. Especially, we would like to give a cookie to @hillaryfraley. She created around a dozen Pull Requests so far and didn’t only fix typos but complete sections. The Hacktoberfest is still on-going and we are looking forward to get more Pull Requests.

+ +

Statistics

+ +

With the statistics sensor we would like to introduce a new sensor that is similar to the template sensor or the trend sensor. This sensor is consuming values from another sensor and is doing some statistical analysis of the data. Over a group of samples is the average/mean, the min/max, the total, the standard deviation, and the variance calculated which can be used in your automation rules. If the source is a binary sensor then the state changes are counted.

+ +

+ +

+ +

As the results are processed on-the-fly you still need to use the data from your database for a in-depth analysis of your stored information. Check the latest notebook for doing statistics with your Home Assistant database.

+ +

REST! We don’t…

+ +

There was a lot of work done on our implementation which are working with RESTful APIs. @w1ll1am23 extended the aREST platforms to display if an aREST unit is available or not. The aREST is now covered by the configuration check as well. Please check the Breaking changes section for more details.

+ +

The REST sensor supports now HTTP authentication (basic and digest) and custom header. This will allow you to access resources which are protected. This sample sensor will access GitHub and retrieve the latest release number while by-passing the rate limit for non-authenticated requests.

This was a pretty rough release cycle and we had to issue two hot fixes for our core improvements. But it seems now that all is good and a lot of people have reported that their installs are faster than ever and the occasional quirks no longer occur.

- -

We are aware that our new web stack has caused issues installing Home Assistant on ARM-based platforms. This sadly includes the Raspberry Pi and Synology NAS systems. We’re working on getting to a better solution. For Raspberry Pi, the All-in-One installer will take care of everything for you. We’re working on updating our standalone Raspberry Pi installation guide.

- -

There are two cool things that I want to highlight in this release. The first is Pandora support. This is based on the CLI player called pianobar. This means that your machine running Home Assistant can be connected to the speakers and provide your house with tunes.

- -

- -

- -

Another cool addition is the local file camera. This seems very basic at first but will allow you to generate a graph with your favorite 3rd party graphing tool and display it on your Home Assistant dashboard. We’re looking forward to see what you can do with this!

    + + +

    Yes, after only nine days comes 0.30. Don’t worry, we will try to keep our usual release cycle and not start to release every day.

    + +

    We guess that you already know: The Raspberry Pi image is available now. For Hassbian, @Landrash has combined the most essential parts for a Home Assistant setup in an easy-to-use image for the Raspberry Pi device family. Hassbian is quite young, thus we are looking forward to recieve feedback, issue report, and suggestions to improve it.

    + +

    A large amount of resources of the development are still focusing on the effort to move Home Assistant further to asynchronous programming. It’s a labor-intensive task, comes with segmentation faults, and unstable instances when certain combinations of sensors are used. The benefit will be more speed in the near future.

    + +

    To reduce the run-time of your tests, @balloob did a lot of tweaking. For now the RFXtrx tests are excluded which cut the needed time for running on your Pull Request in half.

    + +

    Documentation

    + +

    All configuration sample entries are now minimized. This should help to avoid problem for starters and newbies as they only get what’s needed and not a full sample with all optional entries. If there is an issue with an entry in your configuration.yaml file the error message will provide you an URL that point to the documentation.

    + +

    + +

    + +

    As soon as the Hacktoberfest started there were a lot of incoming Pull Requests for the documentation. A huge “Thank you” to all participants. Especially, we would like to give a cookie to @hillaryfraley. She created around a dozen Pull Requests so far and didn’t only fix typos but complete sections. The Hacktoberfest is still on-going and we are looking forward to get more Pull Requests.

    + +

    Statistics

    + +

    With the statistics sensor we would like to introduce a new sensor that is similar to the template sensor or the trend sensor. This sensor is consuming values from another sensor and is doing some statistical analysis of the data. Over a group of samples is the average/mean, the min/max, the total, the standard deviation, and the variance calculated which can be used in your automation rules. If the source is a binary sensor then the state changes are counted.

    + +

    + +

    + +

    As the results are processed on-the-fly you still need to use the data from your database for a in-depth analysis of your stored information. Check the latest notebook for doing statistics with your Home Assistant database.

    + +

    REST! We don’t…

    + +

    There was a lot of work done on our implementation which are working with RESTful APIs. @w1ll1am23 extended the aREST platforms to display if an aREST unit is available or not. The aREST is now covered by the configuration check as well. Please check the Breaking changes section for more details.

    + +

    The REST sensor supports now HTTP authentication (basic and digest) and custom header. This will allow you to access resources which are protected. This sample sensor will access GitHub and retrieve the latest release number while by-passing the rate limit for non-authenticated requests.

    Misc

    + +
      +
    • GitHub released with a recent update a review feature. This will give you more control over your comments while you review an open Pull Request.
      • +
    • Thanks to @robbiet480 we are now running mention-bot. It will help you when you create a new Pull Request to identify potential reviewers.
      • +
    • The Home Assistant Community Forum has now an additional section called “Installation”.

      +
    • All deprecated condition options from automation have been removed (deprecated since May and have printed warnings to your console): +
        +
      • use_trigger_values is gone. You have to copy your triggers to conditions and adjust for the correct config.
        • +
      • condition_type is gone. Use condition: or instead.
        • +
      • To specify the type of a condition, use condition: instead of platform:.
        • +
      +
      • +
    • The Forecast.io was renamed to Dark Sky. Replace your - platform: forecast with - platform: darksky.
      • +
    • The aREST configuration between the sensor and the switch platform was aligned.
      • +

    + +

    + +As soon as the [Hacktoberfest] started there were a lot of incoming Pull Requests for the documentation. A huge "Thank you" to all participants. Especially, we would like to give a cookie to [@hillaryfraley]. She created around a dozen Pull Requests so far and didn't only fix typos but complete sections. The [Hacktoberfest] is still on-going and we are looking forward to get more Pull Requests. + +### Statistics + +With the [statistics sensor][stats-sensor] we would like to introduce a new sensor that is similar to the [template sensor][template-sensor] or the [trend sensor][trend-sensor]. This sensor is consuming values from another sensor and is doing some statistical analysis of the data. Over a group of samples is the average/mean, the min/max, the total, the standard deviation, and the variance calculated which can be used in your automation rules. If the source is a binary sensor then the state changes are counted. + +

    + 0.30: More Async, HASSbian, Digital Ocean, statistics, REST +

    + + + +
    + + Fabian Affolter + six minutes reading time + + +
      + + +
    • Release-Notes
      • + + +
    +     + + Comments + +
    + +
    + + +
    +

    Yes, after only nine days comes 0.30. Don’t worry, we will try to keep our usual release cycle and not start to release every day.

    + +

    We guess that you already know: The Raspberry Pi image is available now. For Hassbian, @Landrash has combined the most essential parts for a Home Assistant setup in an easy-to-use image for the Raspberry Pi device family. Hassbian is quite young, thus we are looking forward to recieve feedback, issue report, and suggestions to improve it.

    + +

    A large amount of resources of the development are still focusing on the effort to move Home Assistant further to asynchronous programming. It’s a labor-intensive task, comes with segmentation faults, and unstable instances when certain combinations of sensors are used. The benefit will be more speed in the near future.

    + +

    To reduce the run-time of your tests, @balloob did a lot of tweaking. For now the RFXtrx tests are excluded which cut the needed time for running on your Pull Request in half.

    + +

    Documentation

    + +

    All configuration sample entries are now minimized. This should help to avoid problem for starters and newbies as they only get what’s needed and not a full sample with all optional entries. If there is an issue with an entry in your configuration.yaml file the error message will provide you an URL that point to the documentation.

    + +

    + +

    + +

    As soon as the Hacktoberfest started there were a lot of incoming Pull Requests for the documentation. A huge “Thank you” to all participants. Especially, we would like to give a cookie to @hillaryfraley. She created around a dozen Pull Requests so far and didn’t only fix typos but complete sections. The Hacktoberfest is still on-going and we are looking forward to get more Pull Requests.

    + +

    Statistics

    + +

    With the statistics sensor we would like to introduce a new sensor that is similar to the template sensor or the trend sensor. This sensor is consuming values from another sensor and is doing some statistical analysis of the data. Over a group of samples is the average/mean, the min/max, the total, the standard deviation, and the variance calculated which can be used in your automation rules. If the source is a binary sensor then the state changes are counted.

    + +

    + +

    + +

    As the results are processed on-the-fly you still need to use the data from your database for a in-depth analysis of your stored information. Check the latest notebook for doing statistics with your Home Assistant database.

    + +

    REST! We don’t…

    + +

    There was a lot of work done on our implementation which are working with RESTful APIs. @w1ll1am23 extended the aREST platforms to display if an aREST unit is available or not. The aREST is now covered by the configuration check as well. Please check the Breaking changes section for more details.

    + +

    The REST sensor supports now HTTP authentication (basic and digest) and custom header. This will allow you to access resources which are protected. This sample sensor will access GitHub and retrieve the latest release number while by-passing the rate limit for non-authenticated requests.

    + +

    +
    + +

    Misc

    + +
      +
    • GitHub released with a recent update a review feature. This will give you more control over your comments while you review an open Pull Request.
      • +
    • Thanks to @robbiet480 we are now running mention-bot. It will help you when you create a new Pull Request to identify potential reviewers.
      • +
    • The Home Assistant Community Forum has now an additional section called “Installation”.

    All changes

    + + + +

    Breaking changes

    + +
      +
    • All deprecated condition options from automation have been removed (deprecated since May and have printed warnings to your console): +
        +
      • use_trigger_values is gone. You have to copy your triggers to conditions and adjust for the correct config.
        • +
      • condition_type is gone. Use condition: or instead.
        • +
      • To specify the type of a condition, use condition: instead of platform:.
        • +
      +
      • +
    • The Forecast.io was renamed to Dark Sky. Replace your - platform: forecast with - platform: darksky.
      • +
    • The aREST configuration between the sensor and the switch platform was aligned.
      • +
    + +

    If you need help…

    …don’t hesitate to use our Forum or join us for a little chat. The release notes have comments enabled but it’s preferred if you the former communication channels. Thanks.

    This blog post will go into detail about the recent performance optimizations that went into the Home Assistant front end. For people not familiar with the app, check out the demo and the source.

    This year at Google I/O I saw Monica from the Polymer team talk about web components and performance. In her talk she mentions a mantra that they use in the Polymer team to make things fast: Do less and be lazy.

    - -

    Do less and be lazy. It sounds so obvious and it took a while before it started to dawn on me. I think most of the code I write is pretty fast, but I don’t often stop to take a harder look at how and when it runs in practice. When do we need the result, can it be postponed?

    - -

    And thus started my journey to take a critical look at how the Home Assistant app was working and how to make things faster. Below is the list of the different things that I did to make it fast.

    - -

    I hope this list can be useful to other people, as a guide for optimizing their own apps or for avoiding pitfalls when building a new one.

    - -

    The first thing to do is to measure. The Home Assistant front end is a mobile web app, so we shouldn’t measure this on a machine with 8 cores and gigabytes of ram but instead measure on devices you expect a mobile web app to run: phones. Below are two timelines recorded with Home Assistant 0.18.2 (pre-optimizations) and Google Chrome 53. On my Mac the app starts in 1400 miliseconds and on my Nexus 5x in ~6500 miliseconds (~4.5 times slower!).

    - -

    - -

    Although the app takes 6500 milliseconds to load on my phone, it would perform well afterwards. Still, that initial load is unacceptable. You expect to open an app on your phone and be able to use it, quickly. After I applied all the changes described below, I managed to reduce startup time to 900 miliseconds (-35%) on my Mac and 2400 miliseconds (-63%) on my Nexus 5x. Check out the demo here.

    It’s time for the 0.22 release. This was a pretty rough release cycle and we had to issue two hot fixes for our core improvements. But it seems now that all is good and a lot of people have reported that their installs are faster than ever and the occasional quirks no longer occur.

    - -

    We are aware that our new web stack has caused issues installing Home Assistant on ARM-based platforms. This sadly includes the Raspberry Pi and Synology NAS systems. We’re working on getting to a better solution. For Raspberry Pi, the All-in-One installer will take care of everything for you. We’re working on updating our standalone Raspberry Pi installation guide.

    - -

    There are two cool things that I want to highlight in this release. The first is Pandora support. This is based on the CLI player called pianobar. This means that your machine running Home Assistant can be connected to the speakers and provide your house with tunes.

    - -

    - -

    - -

    Another cool addition is the local file camera. This seems very basic at first but will allow you to generate a graph with your favorite 3rd party graphing tool and display it on your Home Assistant dashboard. We’re looking forward to see what you can do with this!
