Just wanted to say thanks for making hass-cli. It has solved a problem for me in renaming a pile of Z-Wave entity_ids that get automatically created with ugly names. See What is the preferred way to rename z-wave entities? for my BASH 1-liner to save me endless clicking and typing, one entity at a time…

Would someone please be kind enough to help me get started with Home Assistant CLI on Windows 10? I already have Python installed. It doesn’t look like the instructions were meant for Windows 10.
All I want to do is turn OFF (or ON) my appliance using a python script. …So I can just execute Toaster-ON.py to turn on my toaster, for example. Looking forward to some assistance.

Hello, I am dead with trials. I want to run a service by hass-cli, but can not find proper format of the command. Lets say I have a tuya scene defined “both_yellow” that sets two lamps to yellow color. in Home-Assistant, I see the entity as scene.both_yellow. How do I run that scene from hass-cli please? Thank you very much, Jan
Solved it. The command line is
hass-cli service call --arguments entity_id=scene.both_yellow scene.turn_on
Just wanted to thank you @janbenes. Could not figure out how to do this and now I got my office light scenes to work via CLI! This was only place I found the answer 
For those people using this tool, it appears return UTC time for history queries, is that right?
I got one question that should be simple… How do I change my keyboard settings? I got a keyboard with a Belgian layout.
You haven’t given a command. Try
hass-cli info --server (etc)
And what result do you get when you follow that recommendation?
try putting --server before the (inner) command you want to run:
hass-cli --server http://blahblah info
Is this project abandoned? It’s not working, there are multiple issues with connection and discovery, and last release is 2-3 years ago now.
I am just looking for a way to run ha script commands from command-line remotely.
A CLI is indeed urgently needed. Sadly, this seems to have been abandoned. It really should be maintained by the core HA team.
How extremely unfortunate that this is no longer working, I got excited and installed it and tried it with not one single connection working. I really need something like this run automation via batch scripts in windows.
