The `command_line` platform allows you to use external tools for notifications from Home Assistant. The message will be passed in as STDIN.
|
|
|
|
To enable those notifications in your installation, add the following to your `configuration.yaml` file:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
# Example configuration.yaml entry
|
|
notify:
|
|
- name: NOTIFIER_NAME
|
|
platform: command_line
|
|
command: "espeak -vmb/mb-us1"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Configuration variables:
|
|
|
|
- **name** (*Optional*): Setting the optional parameter `name` allows multiple notifiers to be created. The default value is `notify`. The notifier will bind to the service `notify.NOTIFIER_NAME`.
|
|
- **command** (*Required*): The action to take.
|
|
|
|
To use notifications, please see the [getting started with automation page](/getting-started/automation/).
