Home Assistant - Custom Components Nasa APIs

Welcome to my repository Home Assistant - Custom Component NASA for the nasa.gov API.

The Nasa platform uses the Nasa APIs to know a lot of information, such as, the image of the day, on asteroids near the Earth, photos from Mars and much more.

---

Introduction

The goal is to integrate the largest number of Nasa APIs available, time and knowledge permitting. I am looking for a complete asynchronous python wrapper module for NASA's open APIs. This custom component is still in the development/testing phase. Bugs are still being worked out and breaking changes are common.

Authentication

Although not strictly required to begin interacting with the NASA API, it is recommended to Generate API Key.

Installation

Using Home Assistant Community Store (recommended)

This integration can be added to HACS as a custom repository:

• URL: https://github.com/caiosweet/Home-Assistant-custom-components-NASA
• Category: Integration

After adding a custom repository you can use HACS to install this integration using user interface.

1. Search for Nasa
2. Click the INSTALL THIS REPOSITORY IN HACS button
3. Restart Home Assistant

Manual

To install this integration manually you have to download nasa.zip and extract its contents to config/custom_components/nasa directory:

mkdir -p custom_components/nasa
cd custom_components/nasa
wget https://github.com/caiosweet/Home-Assistant-custom-components-NASA/releases/latest/download/nasa.zip
unzip nasa.zip
rm nasa.zip

Configuration

Config flow

To configure this integration go to: Configurations -> Integrations -> ADD INTEGRATIONS button, search for Nasa and configure the component.

You can also use following My Home Assistant link

Setup

Now the integration is added to HACS and available in the normal HA integration installation

1. In the HomeAssistant left menu, click Configuration
2. Click Integrations
3. Click ADD INTEGRATION
4. Type Nasa and select it
5. Enter the data:
   • Apy Key: default DEMO KEY
6. Configure the Options:
   • APOD - Astronomy Picture of the Day
   • InSight - Mars Weather Service API
   • EPIC - Earth Polychromatic Imaging Camera
   • NeoWs - Asteroids Near Earth Object Web Service
   • Exoplanet - Exoplanet Archive
   • Update interval (minutes, default 120)

Once you done that, you’re ready to start.

NB: If you leave the API KEY field blank, the DEMO KEY will be used. It's fine to start with, but it depends on the things to check out.
