I have a whirlpool oven connected to Home Assistant VIA the whirlpool integration.
Below is what the device’s entities look like
What i’m trying to do is get this into “Apple Home”. Unfortunately, AppleHome doesn’t have a Oven device type. Can anyone provide some recommendations on how i should handle this to get it in along with if i need any HASS plugin/addin to make this happen?
I kind of want something like this (not sure if this is the only reasonable workaround/option in apple home )
I suspect your best bet is going to be using HomeKit Bridge to share the individual sensors from that integration with Apple Home and then shove them all into a room called Oven so that you can see them in one place.
That is the issue, homekit doesn’t support an OVEN entity
Have you considered using the Generic Thermostat integration or the custom integration Template Climate?
Yes, I understand that HomeKit doesn’t support an Oven entity. That’s why I suggested sharing each individual sensor in your list via Home Bridge. Apple Home doesn’t have to know it’s an oven. It will happily take 15 separate sensors that it does understand. Then you group them into a Room in your Home app, and at least you have everything there.
I will give this a shot and see what i can come up with
Looking at Generic Thermostat - Home Assistant it looks like that wont work for an oven. I don’t want it to turn off when the oven gets to the temp. I want it to stay on and stay at the target temp until turned off via home assistant.
It wouldn’t work on its own… you would need an automation to proxy changes to the set point to the number entities the Whirlpool integration is providing, and you would need a template switch to use as a target for the Generic Thermostat.
