Usage

When you call useHassAuth(), you can destructure these variables and methods:

• authed: boolean | undefined: if the user is logged in, undefined while loading
• connection: Connection | undefined: the home-assistant-js-websocket connection object once established
• loading: boolean: if we are determining auth state
• login(hassUrl?: string): function to authenticate against provided Home Assistant instance URL (optional if provided through HassAuthContextProvider)
• logout(): logs the user out
• _hassUrl: string | undefined: the hassUrl used in login method

import React from 'react';

import { HassAuthContextProvider } from 'react-hass-auth';

const App = () => {
    const url = 'http://hassio.local:8123'; // Supply the url of your Home Assistant instance. If left out, you are required to specify it when calling login.

    return (
        <HassAuthContextProvider hassUrl={url}>
            {/* rest of your app */}
        </HassAuthContextProvider>
    );
};
