hey so I’m trying to figure out how to send an ssh command to my iPad to unlock when a motion sensor is triggered, i can send this command “activator send libactivator.lockscreen.dismiss” from terminal on my mac and it unlocks but I can’t for the life of me figure out how to do this with a locked down hass.io i’ve hooked it up to a monitor and ssh isn’t even a optional command. If anyone has any ideas or seen any way to unlock an ipad some other way?
Pretty sure hassio has ssh
So yes you were right it does have it and work for some reason with the add-on i just assumed it didn’t. So i have logged ssh’ed into hassio and then followed the instruction on https://www.tecmint.com/ssh-passwordless-login-using-ssh-keygen-in-5-easy-steps/ and can now push the command ssh root@[ipaddress] activator send libactivator.lockscreen.dismiss and not need any authentication. Now what i need help with is turning this command into an automation.
i tried using shell command
shell_command:
Unlock_ipad: ssh root@[ipaddress] activator send libactivator.lockscreen.dismiss
but that doesn’t seem to work when called. Any ideas?
which addon?
What does your log show?
