I made a crappy Nest Thermostat integration that will work as a stopgap until alternatives come out

Can I help with finding the EU URL, as it is what I use? If you point me in the right direction I may be able to find it.

105

Have you looked under thermostat card?

106

Thanks for this good work @USA-RedDragon !

My Nest thermostat works very well with Badnest.
However, I’ve 3 cameras and none works. I’ve use a picture-glance card. Do you have a sample conf ? I live in France (I don’t know if it’s necessary but I’ve seen there are different URL for cam).

Update for camera.jardin fails

    return r.json()[0]
IndexError: list index out of range

By the way, I received 7 emails from Nest when I relaunched HA… I don’t know if it’s normal or not.

107

Just an update…

I just left the cards and didn’t touch them, but today for some reason everything works again. Hmmmm, I don’t know what changed?

108

I have created a pull request with the EU camera URL and a config to set a region. I have never written anything in python or anything for HA before though so it might be awful and if that’s the case then feel free to take the URL from the pull request and write your own code instead. Thanks so much for creating this!

Awesome work. I just took the URL and changed it, 3 cameras all now in HA. Amazing!

110

I’ve started having issues with it failing to work as well. I’m looking into it now. I also have plans to add support for the nest protect

111

Unfortunately, you’ll get emails about logins whenever the token expires, since it re-auths

112

I just rewrote the whole API, making it a lot less prone to error, and making it much easier to add support for more Nest products. Today I added preliminary Nest Protect support under the sensors platform.

Residents of the EU and other non-US camera users now have the ability to specify their two character country code for the Nest API (e.g. ‘us’ for the United States and ‘eu’ for the European Union, more probably exist)

This marks release 4.0.0 and it’s the first time I’ve added a features section to the readme. This should be much more stable now.

Massive hat-tip to:

  • @deadman96385 for the help with adding Nest Protect support
  • @gboudreau for pointing out that one of the config entries was pointless
  • and @vinodmishra for adding the country code support for Nest Camera users

Thanks for creating this custom component! Great work!
Unfortunately i have the same issue with my camera’s.

116

Same error for all my cameras : Nest Indoor x1 / Nest Outdoor x2

117

Just change ‘online’ to ‘is_online’ on line 68 of camera.py. That will fix it.

Great! That did the trick. Thanks!

The static image works ! But when I click on it, the preview doesn’t.
Any bug ?

120

4.0.1 is released to fix the regression I had in the camera. There have been some reports of the API feeling slower, I’m aware of this issue, and there should be a minor release coming this evening to fix this
