You will need to set up a development environment if you want to start developing a new feature or component for Home Assistant. Please follow these steps to get setup.
|
|
Visit the [the Home Assistant repository](https://github.com/home-assistant/home-assistant) first and click fork in the top right.
|
|
|
|
We suggest that you setup a virtual environment using [`venv`](https://docs.python.org/3.4/library/venv.html) before running the setup script.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ git clone https://github.com/YOUR_GIT_USERNAME/home-assistant.git
|
|
$ cd home-assistant
|
|
$ git remote add upstream https://github.com/home-assistant/home-assistant.git
|
|
$ script/setup
|
|
```
|
|
On Windows you can use `python setup.py develop` instead of the setup script.
|
|
|
|
After following these steps, running `hass` will invoke your local installation.
