Before we dive into this, read up on [Hass.io add-on development][addons-tutorial] first. For security and speed, Hass.io does not provide a way for containers to communicate directly. So the first step is to set up a communication channel. We're going to use MQTT for this using the [MQTT broker add-on][mqtt-addon]. ### {% linkable_title Sensors %} -We loop in our script to fetch data and push it to MQTT and wait until next process is ready.
