The updater component will check for new releases at startup and everyday at noon and midnight. It will show a badge in the frontend if a new version has been detected.
|
|
|
|
For an added bonus, an automation component can be created to send a message with a notifier when that state of this component's entity changes.
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
# Example configuration.yaml entry
|
|
automation:
|
|
alias: 'Update Available Notifications'
|
|
trigger:
|
|
platform: state
|
|
entity_id: updater.updater
|
|
action:
|
|
service: notify.notify
|
|
data:
|
|
message: 'Update for Home Assistant is available.'
|
|
```
