Send hdd and ram data to home assistant with python

Device info to homeassistant

Send hdd and ram data to home assistant with python.

 

Requirements

Python 3.3 or newer.
shutil.disk_usage requires Python 3.3 and above.

 

How to use

I have this script on all my servers so I get info of hdd and memory use sent to Home Assistant at regular intervals. The script makes inegrations in Home Assistant like this if the hostname is webserver:

input_number.webserver_memory_used

  I have the script shared through NFS so I only need to change it on one server for it to update on all of them.
But that is not necessary, you can put it where you like, just change the cron accordingly. My crontab -e looks like this:

# Send device info to Home Assistant
* * * * * /usr/bin/python3 /mnt/script/deviceinfo.py

Which will send the info every minute.

 

Instructions

Change http://192.168.44.27 to the IP of your Home Assistant instance.
Change YOUR-LONG-LIVED-TOKEN to your long lived access token, you can make one in your profile.
Scroll to the bottom, click Create Token. Give it a suitable name and paste it in this script.\
