Lock Manager

This app manages lock codes behind the scenes. You will also need to add the various required entities and to configure the frontend to display the various entities.

Sample apps.yaml config

lock_manager:
  module: lock
  class: Manager
  packages_dir: /share/config/packages
  codes: 4
  notify: html5
  locks:
    - identifier: front
      lock: lock.front_door_lock
      alarm_level: sensor.front_door_lock_alarm_level
      alarm_type: sensor.front_door_lock_alarm_type
      clear_usercode_workaround: True

clear_usercode_workaround is an optional boolean that, if True, will set a random 8-digit code instead of calling the lock.clear_usercode service.

The app will warn you if it cannot find the required entities and will attempt to automatically create them in the packages_dir directory (which should be writable by AppDaemon).

Sample configuration.yaml config

It's also important to set the packages directory to the same as configured for the app.

homeassistant:
  packages: !include_dir_named /share/config/packages

Sample ui-lovelace.yaml config

And here's an example Lovelace frontend configuration:
