Person Component

The Person Component is a custom component for Home-Assistant.

About / Why support this component?

This components will allow functions like:

• Better assignment of devices to persons. (Multiple trackers)
• Relationships between persons. ("Where is my wife?", "When do my kids get home?")
• Different user-accounts for home-assistant with different configuration.yaml for each person/group.
• Owning of objects. ("Turn on my TV.")

Installation

1. Copy the person.py-file from this repository and paste it under {YOUR_HOME_ASSISTANT_CONFIGURATION}/custom_components/.

    lastname: Jefferson

    device_trackers:
