Development/Contribute

Are you a Developer? Feel free to extend, that's what you need:

/opt/dev/dev.py does the magic.

• as command line parser we use click_

Entry Point is cli()

• we want to group all commands to a topic, currently 'ha' for Home Assistant, 'component' for custom_component management. Second parameter would be a sub-command (what to do with 'ha', e.g. 'start'), then options/parameters.

• to debug a command, add this code block and debug the dev.py file without parameters. This way breakpoints work.

# for debugging: REMOVE THIS WHEN FINISHED
if __name__ == '__main__':
    # parameters you want to debug:
    cli(["ha", "start", "--restart"])

• when finished, start a pull request.
