This adds the ability for ESPHome-defined actions (services) to send
responses back to Home Assistant. This is the complement to the existing
feature that allows ESPHome to receive responses from HA actions.
New features:
- ExecuteServiceResponse protobuf message (ID 131) for sending responses
- call_id field in ExecuteServiceRequest for tracking service calls
- api.respond action for sending responses from YAML automations
- Support for JSON response data via data: lambda
Example usage:
```yaml
api:
actions:
- action: get_sensor_value
variables:
sensor_name: string
then:
- api.respond:
data: |-
root["value"] = id(my_sensor).state;
root["unit"] = "°C";
```
Note: This requires corresponding changes in aioesphomeapi and
home-assistant/core to handle the new messages.
Tests for ESPHome
This directory contains some tests for ESPHome.
At the moment, all the tests only work by simply executing
esphome over some YAML files that are made to test
whether the yaml gets converted to the proper C++ code.
Of course this is all just very high-level and things like unit tests would be much better. So if you have time and know how to set up a unit testing framework for python, please do give it a try.
When adding entries in test_.yaml files we usually need only
one file updated, unless conflicting code is generated for
different configurations, e.g. wifi and ethernet cannot
be tested on the same device.
Current test_.yaml file contents.
