Google Local SDK for Home Assistant

Implements a small Local SDK receiver that can interact with Home Assistant instances.

Home Assistant instance requirements

  • Zeroconf integration so it can be discovered
  • Google Assistant with local SDK activated

Set up Google dev env

Go to the Google Actions console:

  • Develop (top bar) -> Actions (sidebar) -> Configure local home SDK::
    • Enter your testing URL for Chrome: http://<YOUR LOCAL IP>:8080/test_receiver.html
    • Enter your testing URL for Node: http://<YOUR LOCAL IP>:8080/test_receiver.html
    • Enable "Support local query"
    • Add device scan configuration: "MDNS"
    • MDNS service name: _home-assistant._tcp.local
    • Name: .*\._home-assistant\._tcp\.local

Local SDK dev env

  1. Install dependencies npm install (only do it whenever you pull latest code)
  2. Build code npm run build to build the code once or run npm run watch if you're developing and want to generate a new build whenever you make a change.
  3. Run npm run server to allow Google Assistant to load the app

Chrome debugging

  1. In Chrome, navigate to chrome://inspect
  2. Click "inspect" on the test receiver to open the debugger.

Home Assistant dev env

  1. Make sure you have both zeroconf and cloud integrations set up.
  2. Log in to Home Assistant Cloud
  3. Sync your entities with Google Assistant
  4. Restart Home Assistant to trigger identify requests to the local SDK
