Installation

Manual

(1) Place the custom_components folder in your configuration directory (or add its contents to an existing custom_components folder). It should look similar to this:

<config directory>/
|-- custom_components/
|   |-- smartir/
|       |-- __init__.py
|       |-- climate.py
|       |-- fan.py
|       |-- media_player.py
|       |-- etc...

(2) Add the following to your configuration.yaml file.

smartir:

SmartIR automatically detects updates after each HA startup and asks you to install them. It also has a mechanism that prevents you from updating if the last SmartIR version is incompatible with your HA instance. You can disable this feature by setting SmartIR as follows:

smartir:
  check_updates: false

If you would like to get updates from the rc branch (Release Candidate), configure SmartIR as follows:

smartir:
  update_branch: rc

(3) Configure a platform.

HACS

If you want HACS to handle installation and updates, add SmartIR as a custom repository. In this case, it is recommended that you turn off automatic updates, as above.
