As an application developer my application can stream text to Home Assistant #5
Description
Problem
There may be many client application and the applications will probably lack a UI. It improves usability of an applications logs, or other text sources, and be viewed in HASS.
Potential solution
Options:
-
Use MQTT events to stream logs and/or messages to HASS. This may incur network overhead so a subscription and/or enabling mechanism would be required to only stream when required.
-
Command to device to poll for text.
Additional context
Investigate how others have done this.
