This integration discovers nearby Zerproc lights and adds them to Home Assistant.
## Configuration
This integration can be configured using the integrations page in Home Assistant.
Menu: **Configuration** -> **Integrations**.
Click on the `+` sign to add an integration and search for **Zerproc**.
The integration will scan for nearby devices, and is completed if any are found. No additional configuration is required. The integration will perform a BLE scan every 60 seconds to search for new devices.
## Additional information for Home Assistant Core on Python environments
This integration requires `pybluez` to be installed. On Debian based installs, run:
```bash
sudo apt install bluetooth
```
Before you get started with this integration, please note that:
- Requires access to the Bluetooth stack, see [Rootless Setup section](#rootless-setup) for further information
## Rootless Setup
Normally accessing the Bluetooth stack is reserved for `root`, but running programs that are networked as `root` is a bad security wise. To allow non-root access to the Bluetooth stack we can give Python 3 and `hcitool` the missing capabilities to access the Bluetooth stack. Quite like setting the setuid bit (see [Stack Exchange](https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/96106/bluetooth-le-scan-as-non-root) for more information).
```bash
sudo apt-get install libcap2-bin
sudo setcap 'cap_net_raw,cap_net_admin+eip' `readlink -f \`which python3\``
sudo setcap 'cap_net_raw+ep' `readlink -f \`which hcitool\``
```
A restart of Home Assistant Core is required.
