<content type="html"><![CDATA[<p>Most people do not like configuring things. Things just have to work, out of the box. Reaching this scenario is the goal of what we are about to introduce: our new discovery component.</p>
<p>The discovery component will scan the WiFi network from time to time for connected zeroconf/mDNS and uPnP devices. The intial introduction is mainly focussed on getting the right architecture in place and discovers Belkin WeMo switches and Google Chromecasts connected to your network. When found, it will load and notify the appropritate component and it will be ready to use within seconds.</p>
<p>Most devices still require some sort of interaction from the user after being discovered - be it a button being pressed or some sort of authentication. This is a challenge that will be solved in the future.</p>
<p>To enable the discovery component, add the following to your <code>home-assistant.conf</code>:</p>
<figure class='code'><div class="highlight"><table><tr><td class="gutter"><pre class="line-numbers"><span class='line-number'>1</span>
</pre></td><td class='code'><pre><code class=''><span class='line'>[discovery]</span></code></pre></td></tr></table></div></figure>
<p>A new <a href="https://home-assistant.io/developers/add_new_platform.html#discovery">discovery section</a> has been added to the Adding a new platform page with instructions how to make your platform discoverable.</p>

<p>Most people do not like configuring things. Things just have to work, out of the box. Reaching this scenario is the goal of what we are about to introduce: our new discovery component.</p>
<p>The discovery component will scan the WiFi network from time to time for connected zeroconf/mDNS and uPnP devices. The intial introduction is mainly focussed on getting the right architecture in place and discovers Belkin WeMo switches and Google Chromecasts connected to your network. When found, it will load and notify the appropritate component and it will be ready to use within seconds.</p>
<p>Most devices still require some sort of interaction from the user after being discovered - be it a button being pressed or some sort of authentication. This is a challenge that will be solved in the future.</p>
<p>To enable the discovery component, add the following to your <code>home-assistant.conf</code>:</p>
<figure class='code'><div class="highlight"><table><tr><td class="gutter"><pre class="line-numbers"><span class='line-number'>1</span>
</pre></td><td class='code'><pre><code class=''><span class='line'>[discovery]</span></code></pre></td></tr></table></div></figure>
<p>A new <a href="/developers/add_new_platform.html#discovery">discovery section</a> has been added to the Adding a new platform page with instructions how to make your platform discoverable.</p>

<p>Most people do not like configuring things. Things just have to work, out of the box. Reaching this scenario is the goal of what we are about to introduce: our new discovery component.</p>
<p>The discovery component will scan the WiFi network from time to time for connected zeroconf/mDNS and uPnP devices. The intial introduction is mainly focussed on getting the right architecture in place and discovers Belkin WeMo switches and Google Chromecasts connected to your network. When found, it will load and notify the appropritate component and it will be ready to use within seconds.</p>
<p>Most devices still require some sort of interaction from the user after being discovered - be it a button being pressed or some sort of authentication. This is a challenge that will be solved in the future.</p>
<p>To enable the discovery component, add the following to your <code>home-assistant.conf</code>:</p>
<figure class='code'><div class="highlight"><table><tr><td class="gutter"><pre class="line-numbers"><span class='line-number'>1</span>
</pre></td><td class='code'><pre><code class=''><span class='line'>[discovery]</span></code></pre></td></tr></table></div></figure>
<p>A new <a href="/developers/add_new_platform.html#discovery">discovery section</a> has been added to the Adding a new platform page with instructions how to make your platform discoverable.</p>

<p>Home Assistant has a discovery service running in the background to discover new devices. Whenever a new device is discovered, an <code>SERVICE_DISCOVERED</code> event will be fired with the found service and the information. The <code>discovery</code> component has some knowledge about which components handle which type of services and will ensure those are loaded and listening before firing the <code>SERVICE_DISCOVERED</code> event.</p> <p>Home Assistant has a discovery service running in the background to discover new devices.
