Firmware not compatible with Home Assistant ESPHome addon about iaq_board HOT 5 CLOSED

For iaq_board.yaml to compile in the ESPHome HA Addon I had to also add a couple dependencies to the yaml:

  platformio_options:
    lib_deps: 
      - [email protected]
      - [email protected]
      - [email protected]
      - [email protected]

(The NeoPixelBus was already defined as a dep)

from iaq_board.

Brightness.yaml is linked in the firmware folder.

https://github.com/nkitanov/iaq_board/blob/master/firmware/includes/brightness.yaml

The fonts folder is also included.

https://github.com/nkitanov/iaq_board/tree/master/firmware/fonts

If you download the firmware folder so the paths match, the firmware will compile.

You need to manually upload the font and the brightness.yaml into the config directory of the addon. It depends a lot on how you actually are running home-assistant. But you can either SSH into HA or use a addon like Samba to get filesystem access to it. For me that config directory is actually called esphome and lives within my Home Assistant data dir. The config files contains the yaml files you have created via the web interface of the ESPHome addon.

In that same dir (so next to where you have iaq_board.yaml and all the other ESPHome device configs) you create a fonts dir and upload the Arials.ttf file. And you create an includes dir where you put the brightness.yaml file in.

After adding the earlier mentioned additional dependencies you should be able to compile and manage the device.

Thank you!

Thanks. Im still not sure, how i can deal with fonts, HA addon doesnt allow to upload any external dependencies like fonts
