No stats, no numbers, and alike this time. Ok, just one number: 0.37. We are back on track with our bi-weekly release cycle. Beside some organizational changes is this release shipping again cool features and new integrations. Please keep an eye on the “Breaking changes” section because there are also massive improvements for some platforms and components.

Governance

As announced, the new Governance requires for developers to sign the CLA. Code of Conduct, Contributor License Agreement, and proper Licensing will to protect all involved parties in the Home Assistant eco-system from users and community members to contributors.

Face recognition using the Microsoft Face API

@pvizeli has been on a roll with the image processing integrations. This time it’s the Microsoft Face API. This means that now it will be possible to train the API with the people you want to recognize and send images from your camera to the API as another source of automation.

Want to play a personalized tune when someone enters the house? It is now possible 😎

Improved camera security

After a security audit by Stephen O’Conner, he found that our source for randomly generated access tokens for camera feeds were reasonable predictable and could be brute force attacked in 2.5 weeks. A fix has been included in this release that uses the system provided random number generator for maximum randomness and rotates the keys every 10 minutes to reduce the window in which a brute force attack can happen.

Although the old method is not insecure, the new method is a lot more secure. Upgrading to the latest version is encouraged.

New customization options

@Andrey-git has added some great new options to the customize functionality. It is now possible to specify customizations as a wildcard for entities or for a specific domain.

Major Wink and HDMI CEC improvements

@w1ll1am23 did an amazing job fixing a ton of bugs and issues with the Wink integration. Biggest improvement is that it now is able to automatically refresh the authentication tokens. This means that if you have your email address and password in your configuration.yaml file, no client_id and client_secret are needed, and token which was generated with the generator located in the Wink documentation.

The new Wink support will cause renaming of all the binary sensors and will also create new sensors for devices that weren’t previously detected or supported in the older version.

Thanks to @konikvranik the HDMI CEC integration got a huge update with a lot of improvements. This update should make it easier to work with HDMI CEC and give you more control.

First Coffee Maker supported

@stu-gott has added support for the first coffee maker in Home Assistant: Mr. Coffee Smart Optimal Brew. Happy brewing!

Breaking changes

  • A major breaking change in the emulated_hue component means that unless you set type: alexa before starting up the newer Home Assistant version you will lose all devices that Alexa has discovered and will need to re-add them as well as create new groups.
  • The platform of the ISS integration was change to binary_sensor. Please check the platform documentation.
  • The Roku media uses now a new format for the entity IDs.
  • OpenALPR is no longer a component. It’s now a platform for Image processing.
  • Due to massive improvements of the Wink integration, the names of your binary sensors will change and new devices can show up.
  • The MySensors component now requires all persistence file paths to be set if any is set by the user. This is to avoid name conflicts for the paths. If no path is set Home Assistant will set all paths for you.
  • The Sonos service sonos_group_players was removed. Use now sonos_join for this function.
  • TTS cache have change for the last time. Files use now also a option hash as part of the name. If you want to use the cache, it need to be renamed or cleared, new created. E. g. HASH_LANG_PLATFORM.xxx -> HASH_LANG_OPTIONS_PLATFORM.xxx, replace OPTIONS with - on exiting platforms.
