Home Assistant Dashboard on eInk Displays

A simple Python server to display a basic HTML page optimized for eInk displays.

I wrote more about it here.

Prerequisites

• Docker
• Docker Compose (V2)
• Python 3.9+ (for local development)

Setup

1. Clone or download this repository
2. Copy utils/constants.py.customize to utils/constants.py and populate it with your Home Assistant instance's IP, port, token, and the name of the sensors you want to use

Sensor integrations used:

• For the weather I used Met.no
• For the ETA to work I used Waze
• The other sensors are custom helpers set up in HA that you can customize by reading the code

Usage

Docker (recommended)

make docker-up       # Build and start the container
make docker-down     # Stop the container

Local Development

make setup           # Install dependencies
make run             # Start Flask dev server on 0.0.0.0:6123

Tests & Linting

make test            # Run the test suite
make lint            # Check code style
make format          # Auto-fix lint issues and format code
