The `pyload` platform allows you to monitor your downloads with [pyLoad](https://pyload.net/) from within Home Assistant and setup automation based on the information.
To enable this sensor, add the following lines to your `configuration.yaml`:
```yaml
# Example configuration.yaml entry
sensor:
- platform: pyload
```
Configuration variables:
- **host** (*Optional*): This is the IP address of your pyLoad download manager, eg. 192.168.0.100. Defaults to `localhost`.
- **port** (*Optional*): The port your pyLoad interface uses. Defaults to 8000.
- **name** (*Optional*): The name to use when displaying this pyLoad instance.
- **username** (*Optional*): Your pyLoad username.
- **password** (*Optional*): Your pyLoad password.
If everything is setup correctly, the download speed will show up in the frontend.
