Python wrapper for Homeassistant's Websocket API and REST API

Note: As of this comment the REST API is not getting any new features or endpoints. However, it is not going to be deprecated according to this comment But it is recommended to use the Websocket API for new integrations.

Here is a quick example.

from homeassistant_api import Client

with Client(
    '<API Server URL>', # i.e. 'http://homeassistant.local:8123/api/'
    '<Your Long Lived Access-Token>'
) as client:
    light = client.trigger_service('light', 'turn_on', {'entity_id': 'light.living_room'})

All the methods also support async/await! Just prefix the method with async_ and pass the use_async=True argument to the Client constructor. Then you can use the methods as coroutines (i.e. await light.async_turn_on(...)).

Go make some cool stuff! Maybe come back and tell us about it in a discussion? We'd love to hear about how you use our library!!
