Almost three busy weeks have past since the last release. We used this time to finally make the overhaul to use UTC as the internal date time format. We added a bunch of test coverage in the process to make sure the transition went smoothly. Pleas see [the blog post about the UTC refactor](/blog/2015/05/09/utc-time-zone-awareness/#backwards-incompatible-stuff) for backwards incompatible changes.
|
|
|
|
This release includes a significant startup boost for the frontend and a fix for Wemo discovery after their latest firmware upgrade.
|
|
|
|
I would like to give a big shout out to our newest contributor [fabaff](https://github.com/fabaff) for taking the time to improve the documentation.

__Overwriting Entity Attributes__
|
|
Before diving into the newly supported devices and services, I want to highlight an awesome configuration enhancement by [rmkraus](https://github.com/rmkraus): overwriting entity attributes.
|
|
|
|
These new configuration settings allow you to overwrite entity state attributes. The main usage for this is being able to overwrite attributes that influence how an entity is shown in the interface.
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
# Example configuration.yaml entry
|
|
homeassistant:
|
|
customize:
|
|
light.bowl:
|
|
# hides this entity from the interface
|
|
hidden: true
|
|
light.ceiling:
|
|
# Replaces the state badge with given picture
|
|
entity_picture: http://graph.facebook.com/schoutsen/picture
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
__MySensors__
|
|
<img src='/images/supported_brands/mysensors.png' style='border:none; box-shadow: none; float: right;' height='50' /> [Andythigpen](https://github.com/andythigpen) and [Theolind](https://github.com/theolind) have added support for the [MySensors platform](http://www.mysensors.org) to Home Assistant.
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
# Example configuration.yaml entry
|
|
sensor:
|
|
platform: mysensors
|
|
port: /dev/ttyACM0
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
__OpenWeatherMap__
|
|
<img src='/images/supported_brands/openweathermap.png' style='border:none; box-shadow: none; float: right;' height='50' /> [Fabaff](https://github.com/fabaff) has contributed support for [OpenWeatherMap](http://openweathermap.org). This will allow you to integrate local meteorological data into Home Assistant.
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
# Example configuration.yaml entry
|
|
sensor:
|
|
platform: openweathermap
|
|
api_key: YOUR_API_KEY
|
|
monitored_variables:
|
|
- type: 'weather'
|
|
- type: 'temperature'
|
|
- type: 'wind_speed'
|
|
- type: 'humidity'
|
|
- type: 'pressure'

|
- type: 'snow'
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
__InstaPush__
|
|
[Fabaff](https://github.com/fabaff) has contributed support for InstaPush. This will allow you send messages from Home Assistant to your iOS and Android devices.
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
# Example configuration.yaml entry
|
|
notify:
|
|
platform: instapush
|
|
# Get those by creating a new application, event and tracker
|
|
api_key: ABCDEFGHJKLMNOPQRSTUVXYZ
|
|
app_secret: ABCDEFGHJKLMNOPQRSTUVXYZ
|
|
event: ABCDEFGHJKLMNOPQRSTUVXYZ
|
|
tracker: ABCDEFGHJKLMNOPQRSTUVXYZ
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
__XMPP__
|
|
<img src='/images/supported_brands/xmpp.png' style='border:none; box-shadow: none; float: right;' height='50' /> [Fabaff](https://github.com/fabaff) has contributed support for Jabber/XMPP. This will allow you send messages from Home Assistant to anyone on Jabber/XMPP.
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
# Example configuration.yaml entry
|
|
notify:
|
|
platform: xmpp
|
|
sender: YOUR_JID
|
|
password: YOUR_JABBER_ACCOUNT_PASSWORD
|
|
recipient: YOUR_RECIPIENT
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
__Notify My Android__
|
|
<img src='/images/supported_brands/nma.png' style='border:none; box-shadow: none; float: right;' height='50' /> [Fabaff](https://github.com/fabaff) has contributed support for [Notify My Android](http://www.notifymyandroid.com/). This will allow you to send messages from Home Assistant to your Android device.
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
# Example configuration.yaml entry
|
|
notify:
|
|
platform: nma
|
|
# Get this by registering a new application on http://www.notifymyandroid.com/
|
|
api_key: ABCDEFGHJKLMNOPQRSTUVXYZ
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
__Time & Date sensor__
|
|
[Fabaff](https://github.com/fabaff) has contributed a time & date sensor. This will allow you to show the current time/date on the dashboard.
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
# Example configuration.yaml entry
|
|
sensor:
|
|
platform: time_date
|
|
monitored_variables:
|
|
- type: 'time'
|
|
- type: 'date'
|
|
- type: 'date_time'
