Integration to control Everhome shutter-type devices in Home Assistant.

Everhome is a cloud-based smart home platform that supports various device manufacturers and protocols. While Everhome is compatible with multiple device types including lighting, sensors, and other smart home products, this integration focuses specifically on shutter-type devices such as shutters, blinds, awnings, and curtains.

This integration supports all shutter-type devices connected to the Everhome platform, including:

• Shutters - Motorized window shutters from various manufacturers
• Blinds - Motorized window blinds and venetian blinds
• Awnings - Outdoor shade awnings and retractable canopies
• Curtains - Motorized curtain and drape systems

The integration has been tested and verified with:

• Jarolift - German manufacturer of tubular motors and drive systems
• Other Everhome-compatible shutter motor brands

This component will set up the following platforms:

• OAuth2 Authentication - Secure connection to Everhome cloud
• Real-time Control - Open, close, and stop shutter operations
• State Detection - Intelligent state management with API limitations handling
• Universal Shutter Support - Compatible with all Everhome shutter-type devices
• Multiple Device Categories - Support for shutters, blinds, awnings, and curtains
• Always-Available Controls - All buttons remain active regardless of state
• Position Feedback - Position reporting when available from devices
• Reliable Operation - Graceful handling of local remote usage and API outages

1. Open HACS in your Home Assistant instance
2. Go to "Integrations"
3. Click the "+" button
4. Search for "Everhome"
5. Download the integration
6. Restart Home Assistant

1. Using the tool of choice open the directory (folder) for your HA configuration (where you find configuration.yaml)
2. If you do not have a custom_components directory (folder) there, you need to create it
3. In the custom_components directory (folder) create a new folder called everhome
4. Download all the files from the custom_components/everhome/ directory (folder) in this repository
5. Place the files you downloaded in the new directory (folder) you created
6. Restart Home Assistant

1. In Home Assistant, go to Configuration → Integrations
2. Click "+ Add Integration"
3. Search for "Everhome"
4. Follow the OAuth2 authentication flow:
   • You'll be redirected to Everhome's login page
   • Log in with your Everhome credentials
   • Authorize Home Assistant to access your account
   • You'll be redirected back to Home Assistant

The integration automatically discovers and configures all shutter-type devices:

• Shutters - Motorized window shutters from any compatible manufacturer
• Blinds - Motorized window blinds and venetian blind systems
• Awnings - Outdoor shade awnings and retractable canopy systems
• Curtains - Motorized curtain and drape systems
• Garage Doors - Motorized garage door systems

This integration works with shutter-type devices from various manufacturers connected to Everhome, including:

• Jarolift - TDEF series tubular motors, Smart WiFi motors, and 433 MHz radio systems
• Other brands - Any shutter motor system compatible with the Everhome platform

Universal Shutter Features Supported:

• Manual remote control detection and state synchronization
• Motor limit position handling for all compatible systems
• Emergency stop functionality across all device types
• Integration with manufacturer-specific protocols via Everhome

Each device provides:

• Open/Close Controls - Basic shutter operation
• Stop Function - Emergency stop capability
• Position Reporting - Current position when available (0-100%)
• State Feedback - Opening, closing, open, closed states
• Device Information - Model, firmware version, manufacturer details

• No Intermediate Positions: Everhome API doesn't provide percentage positions for most devices due to motor limitations
• Local Remote Interference: Using physical remotes can cause temporary state sync issues as the cloud API doesn't receive these updates immediately
• Position Accuracy: Some devices may report approximate positions rather than exact percentages

• Smart State Detection: Uses explicit API states when available, falls back to position-based detection
• Motor Threshold Handling: Treats positions ≤5% as closed and ≥95% as open to handle motor limitations
• Graceful Degradation: Maintains control functionality even when state data is unavailable

• Invalid Credentials: Verify your Everhome account credentials
• OAuth Timeout: Try the authentication process again
• Token Expiration: The integration automatically handles token refresh

• "Unknown" States: Fixed in recent versions - update to latest release
• Delayed Updates: Local remote usage may cause temporary delays
• Missing Devices: Ensure devices are properly configured in the Everhome app

• API Timeouts: Check internet connectivity and Everhome service status
• Rate Limiting: The integration respects API rate limits automatically
• Cloud Outages: Integration will retry automatically when service resumes
