This vera light platform allows you to control your Vera lights.

This platform is useful if you wish for switches connected to your Vera controller to appear as lights in Home Assistant. All switches will be added as a light unless you exclude them in the configuration file.

To use your Vera lights in your installation, add the following to your configuration.yaml file:

# Example configuration.yaml entry
light:
  platform: vera
  vera_controller_url: http://YOUR_VERA_IP:3480/
  device_data:
    12:
      name: My awesome sensor
      exclude: true
    13:
      name: Another sensor

Configuration variables:

• device_data array (Optional):This contains an array additional device information for your Vera devices. It is not required and if not specified all sensors configured in your Vera controller will be added with default values.
