Home assistant Casambi Lights support
This is project is a custom component for supporting Casambi Lights in Home Assistant. The component integrates with casambi through its Cloud API. All lights will be automatically discovered. The light state is sent to Home Assistant mainly by websocket, but this integration also polls Casambis REST API periodically. Home Assistant can be integrated with Google Home, Amazon Alexa and much more.
It uses a separate library (also written by me), link to library project: https://github.com/olofhellqvist/aiocasambi

| OLIGO | CURVED | Support for light with two dimmers (up and down light) is currently limited. Both dimmers are controlled simultaneously with one light entity in Home Assistant, no separate control implemented as of today (see #54). |
