# About Home Assistant
4038
Home Assistant (hass) is an open source home automation platform. Hass features an energy dashboard in which energy generation, storage and usage data can be combined in a dashboard giving a total overview of energy flow. Using MQTT, the power and energy generation data from Huawei's FusionSolar Kiosk can be fed into Home Assistant. This project can then act as a data source for the solar production section of the HASS energy dashboard.

Hass can easily be connected to an MQTT using the MQTT integration, which can be set up using the hass web interface. Once hass is connected to MQTT, a change in configuration.yaml is required in order to add the energy sensors to hass. A [configuration.yaml example file](./examples/home_assistant/configuration.yaml) which shows how to do this is provided in the Examples subfolder of this project.

Hass can easily be connected to an MQTT using the MQTT integration, which can be set up using the hass web interface. Once hass is connected to MQTT, PyFusionSolarDataRelay publishes a HASS MQTT device discovery topic so that home assistant automatically recognizes the devices for which measurements are relayed. No configuration in home assistant sensors is required.
