I had some trouble installing HACS, so I apologize that I can’t give you a step-by-step guide here, but a lot of the installation was trial and error until I got it working correctly. Once installed, it lets you install custom Github projects with the click of a button, rather than manually editing custom_components.yaml file and importing files. HACS is the Home Assistant Community Store. If you don’t, I recently wrote a an OpenSprinkler installation guide you can reference. This guide assumes that you already have OpenSprinkler installed and working. My Home Assistant instance is configured on a raspberry pi 3B+. By the end of this guide, you will be able to turn on individual stations, run your “Run Once” programs, check last run time, and much more – all from your Lovelace dashboard.įor reference, I am using the preassembled OpenSprinkler unit. In this tutorial, I am going to show you how to integrate your OpenSprinker smart sprinkler system into Home Assistant. For questions, comments, and suggestions, please post them at the Rayshobby Forum. These have all been explained in the one-page instruction. Once you’ve switched to the sprinklers_pi program, you can access its web interface at the same. To do so, ssh (or use a monitor and keyboard) to your Raspberry Pi (the system uses the default user name pi and password raspberry) and run the script in a terminal: sudo /home/pi/select_program. You can also switch to run Rich Zimmerman’s sprinklers_pi program on start-up. The OpenSprinkler mobile app is also pre-installed to the SD card, which is available at: (again, x.x.x.x is your Raspberry Pi’s IP address) and you should see the web interface of the interval_program. If you can see this page, congratulations, you’ve succeeded!ĭan Kimberling’s interval_program is set as the default program to run on start-up. You should see a page with further instructions, such as setting up time zone, WiFi etc. Where x.x.x.x is your Raspberry Pi’s IP address. In your home router’s configuration page, find out the IP address assigned to the Raspberry Pi. This way when you pop it in to RPi, it will automatically connect to your WiFi network. Alternatively, if you are a Linux user, insert the SD card to your computer, and you directly edit the WiFi SSID and password in file /etc/network/interfaces on the SD card (not your computer!). Since WiFi is not configured yet, you should first connect it directly to your router using a wired Ethernet cable. ![]() Once the SD card is ready, pop it in to your Raspberry Pi.
