The `opengarage` cover platform lets you control the open-source [OpenGarage.io](https://opengarage.io/) device through Home Assistant. 

To enable OpenGarage Covers in your installation, add the following to your `configuration.yaml` file:

```yaml
# Example configuration.yaml entry
cover:
  platform: opengarage

      garage:
        host:  192.168.1.12
        device_key: opendoor
        name:  Left Garage Door
      garage2:
        host:  192.168.1.13
        device_key: opendoor
        name:  Right Garage Door
```

Configuration variables:

- **covers** array (*Required*): List of your doors.
  - **identifier**  (*Required*): Name of the cover as slug. Multiple entries are possible.
      - **host** (*Required*): IP address of device.
      - **port** (*Optional*): HTTP Port. Default is `80`.
      - **device_key** (*Required*): Access key to control device. Default is `opendoor`.
