CCEI Tild integration for Home Assistant

The repository provide a Home Assistant integration for CCEI Tild pool box. It's allow to retrieve the current state of the Tild box (water temperature, light, filtration, ...), act on it (turn on/off the filtration/auxiliary/light, change it color/intensity, ...) and edit it configuration (light/filtration/auxiliary programming).

It's initialy based on Ricky_D works to reverse the protocol used between the smartphone app and the device before I taked care about this project to make it a real and complete Home-Assistant integration. Thank's to him !

Note: This integration is borned on the HACF forum.

Installation

Using HACS

Add CCEI Tild integration via HACS:

Add your CCEI Tild pool box via the Integration menu:

Note: A request for integration as default repository in HACS is currently pending.

Manually

Put the custom_components/ccei_tild directory in your Home Assistant custom_components directory and restart Home Assistant. You can now add this integration (look for "CCEI Tild") and provide the IP address (or hostname) of your Tild box.

Note: The custom_components directory is located in the same directory of the configuration.yaml. If it doesn't exists, create it.

Run development environment

A development environment is provided with this integration if you want to contribute. The manage script at the root of the repository permit to create and start a Home Assistant docker container with a pre-installation of this integration (linked to sources).

To create and start the container, just run the command ./manage start. The container logs will be show on console and you can access to Home Assistant web interface on http://localhost:8123. On first start, you need to follow the initialization process of the Home Assistant instance as on a regular installation.

A fake Tild server is also provide to emulate a Tild box. This fake server is running and listening inside the Home-Assistant container (0.0.0.0:30302). As a regular Tild box, it's could be automatically discovered when you add the integration, or you could enter the 127.0.0.1 IP address (or localhost) in the configuration dialog.

Note: you could disable it by setting the USE_FAKE_TILD variable to zero inside the manage script.

Futhermore, the manage analyse-tild-state-data command is provided to help to analyse raw status data retrieved from Tild box:

usage: analyse-tild-state-data [-h] [-M] [-F] data [data ...]

positional arguments:
  data

options:
  -h, --help      show this help message and exit
  -M, --markdown  Format output in Markdown
  -F, --forum     Format output for the forum

Debugging

To enable debug log, edit the configuration.yaml file and locate the logger block. If it does not exists, add it with the following content :

logger:
  default: warn
  logs:
    custom_components.ccei_tild: debug

Don't forget to restart Home Assistant after.
