This custom component is intended to be used instead of the core soma integration.
It uses more resilient methods of communicating with the SOMA Connect device and
provides additional entities including battery and light levels.
This component will set up the following platforms.
| Platform | Description |
|---|---|
cover |
A cover entity is created for each Shade or Tilt device discovered. |
sensor |
Two sensor entities are created for each device: one for the battery level and the other for the light level. |

- Add https://github.com/Djelibeybi/hass-soma-connect to HACS as a custom repository.
- Click install.
- In the HA UI go to "Configuration" -> "Integrations" click "+" and search for "SOMA Connect (Custom)".
Provide the hostname (or IP address) and port (usually 3000) for your SOMA Connect appliance when prompted. Home Assistant should then display all the blinds seen by the appliance.
You can select an area for each shade during the onboarding process or after the shade entities have been created.
