Access hass.io component files

[DkAutomater]

Hi Guys

I want to change my Roth touchline component insite here: /usr/src/homeassistant/homeassistant/components/

But the addon Configurator does not work properly, can you guys help me to edit files there?

[flamingm0e]

You don’t modify the files in hassio. You should make a custom component instead.

@DkAutomater

But the addon Configurator does not work properly

What doesn’t work about it?

[DkAutomater]

Hi @flamingm0e i will like to change a .py file in this location:

/usr/src/homeassistant/homeassistant/components/

This is the precise file location and file name:

/usr/src/homeassistant/homeassistant/components/touchline/climate.py

I am using: HASSIO

Someone fix the component: Roth Touchline - Home Assistant

And they got a locally working touchline.py file that i will like to replace in my hassio system.

Here is the post: New Request: ROTH Touchline - Underfloor Heating System - #27 by pilehave

Can you help??

[flamingm0e]

I’ll reiterate this again.

Make it into a CUSTOM component, and don’t try to modify system files that will be overwritten on the next update.

[DkAutomater]

I cant just make it into a CUSTOM component, and i will like to modify this file.

Can you help or not?

[flamingm0e]

@DkAutomater

I cant just make it into a CUSTOM component,

Why not?

@DkAutomater

and i will like to modify this file.

And I’m telling you that it won’t work on the next update.

@DkAutomater

Can you help or not?

I am helping you. Just because it’s not the answer you want to hear doesn’t mean it’s wrong.

[DkAutomater]

How should i make it into a CUSTOM component?

I know it could not work on next update!

I know the files are changeable, and i will like to change the .py file before i make it into custom component.

[flamingm0e]

Why are you making this difficult?

You just copy the component following directory structure into a directory called custom_components…

You can get all the files needed from GitHub.

[DkAutomater]

I am using hacs, so can you help how i make this file:

New Request: ROTH Touchline - Underfloor Heating System

Attached to this post is a link to a new version of the “climate.py” component for Roth Touchline, including the ability to set the operation mode via presets. I made this new version, because I use it myself (I also made an older version, from before HA was updated with a new climate architecture) The component is compatible with version 0.96.5. I’ll see if I have the time to make a PR and go through all the hoops that awaits … Remember to make a backup of the current “climate.py” if you fi…

Into a custom component that i can use?

How to create a custom component out of an existing component?

Hi, I have a question but I am not really good in programming. I have setup the imap sensor in Home Assistant to work with my outlook/hotmail inboxes. The component works great, though I have to change a line to make it work with Outlook/Hotmail. No problem ofcourse. However, every time I update HA the file gets overwritten (and thus the line I changed with it). So after each update I need to re-add the line to the sensor.py file. Not really ideal considering that I run either beta or dev chann…

Put the files needed in custom_components, as I’ve said before.

[DkAutomater]

Okay, i tried to put the 3 files in here: custom_components\touchline

I still see this file be loaded: /usr/src/homeassistant/homeassistant/components/touchline/climate.py

How do i switch to the custom compnents, i dont see it in the documentation.

[flamingm0e]

@DkAutomater

Okay, i tried to put the 3 files in here: custom_components\touchline

OK, so you have the __init__.py, manifest.json, and the climate.py? in that directory?

@DkAutomater

How do i switch to the custom compnents

Nothing special. Custom components should “override” the built in components. After you have added those files, you have restarted?

[DkAutomater]

Yep, i put these files in here:

and i restartet the hassio yet.

wierd, seems to start the build in component.

[flamingm0e]

you didn’t add the manifest.json and you have 2 __init__ files…

[DkAutomater]

OMG, yearh let me try again

[DkAutomater]

Okay that broke my hassio.

I got this error now:

But this component have nothing to do with the mqtt broker.

I think the file: “init.py” is the issue the only thing in the file is this:

The touchline component.

The original site: core/homeassistant/components/touchline at dev · home-assistant/core · GitHub have 3 files, and the only file i replaces was climate.py still not working

[flamingm0e]

@DkAutomater

I got this error now:

The error says it’s failing to setup API

@DkAutomater

But this component have nothing to do with the mqtt broker.

MQTT and everything beyond it is failing to load because of the first error.

@DkAutomater

I think the file: “ init .py” is the issue the only thing in the file is this:

That’s all that is supposed to be in that file.

Verify your configuration yaml. It appears that something around API is breaking the loading of config

[jimz011 (Jim)]

I believe this question is old so this was figured out a long time ago. Thanks for replying though

[flamingm0e]

What are you talking about?

[DkAutomater]

Allright, now the custom_components is loading the original files.

I did not touch anything in configuration.yaml only recreated the folder and 3 files again.

Now i will try to change the climate.py out.!!
