| ## Installation / Setup | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| ### Adding this repository as custom repository | ||||
| ### Prerequisites | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| Add this repository as custom repository in HACS and install it ;) | ||||
| Before you begin, ensure you have the following: | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| ### Manual | ||||
| - A Samsung Soundbar compatible with SmartThings. | ||||
| - HomeAssistant installed and running. | ||||
| - HACS (Home Assistant Community Store) for easy installation. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| You can also copy the `samsung_soundbar` folder in the `custom_components` folder to | ||||
| your `config/custom_components` folder. | ||||
| ### Installation | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| 1. Add this repository as a custom repository in HACS or manually copy the `samsung_soundbar` folder to the `custom_components` directory in your HomeAssistant configuration. | ||||
| 2. Restart HomeAssistant. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| > [!NOTE] | ||||
| > It is planned to add it to the public `HACS` repository list, but not done yet. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| ### Configuration | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| To integrate your Samsung Soundbar with HomeAssistant using YASSI, you'll need the following variables: | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| - **SmartThings API Key**: [Retrieve your API key from SmartThings Tokens.](https://account.smartthings.com/tokens) | ||||
| - **Device ID**: [Find your device ID at SmartThings Devices.](https://my.smartthings.com/advanced/devices) | ||||
| - **Device Name**: Choose a name for your soundbar to be recognized in HomeAssistant. | ||||
| - **Max Volume**: Define the maximum volume level for the `media_player` slider (between `1` and `100`). | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| Please use the HomeAssistant UI to setup the integration, providing a yaml configuration in the `configuration.yaml` | ||||
| should be possible but is not recommended. | ||||
| 
 | ||||

| # Getting Started | ||||
| # 🚀 Getting Started with Yassi | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| ## Installation | ||||
| Welcome to Yassi, the HomeAssistant integration for your Samsung Soundbar. This guide will help you get up and running in no time. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| ### HACS (official) | ||||
| ## 📦 Installation Options | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| > ⚠️ Not done yet, hopefully soon. | ||||
| ### HACS (Home Assistant Community Store) | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| #### 🌟 Official Repository (Coming Soon) | ||||
| The Yassi integration will be available through the official HACS repository shortly. Stay tuned for updates. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| ### HACS (custom repository) | ||||
| #### ➕ Custom Repository | ||||
| In the meantime, you can manually add this repository to HACS: | ||||
| 1. Navigate to HACS in your HomeAssistant. | ||||
| 2. Go to 'Settings' and add this repository URL as a custom repository. | ||||
| 3. Search for 'Yassi' under integrations and proceed with the installation. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| You can add this repository as a custom repository to your hacs. | ||||
| After you've done that, you can search for it like with the "official" | ||||
| integrations. | ||||
| ### 📂 Manual Installation | ||||
| If you prefer to install Yassi manually: | ||||
| 1. Download the latest release from the repository. | ||||
| 2. Extract and copy the `custom_components/samsung_soundbar` folder. | ||||
| 3. Paste it into the `config/custom_components/samsung_soundbar` directory of your HomeAssistant setup. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| ### Manual | ||||
| ## ⚙️ Configuration Steps | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| Copy the contents of `custom_components/samsung_soundbar` to `config/custom_components/samsung_soundbar` | ||||
| on your HomeAssistant instance. | ||||
| Once Yassi is installed, you can configure it via the HomeAssistant UI: | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| ## Configuration | ||||
| 1. Go to 'Configuration' and then 'Integrations'. | ||||
| 2. Click on 'Add Integration' and search for 'Yassi'. | ||||
| 3. Enter the following details to complete the setup: | ||||
|    - 🔑 SmartThings API Key: [Obtain it here](https://account.smartthings.com/tokens). | ||||
|    - 🆔 Device ID: [Find your Soundbar's device ID here](https://my.smartthings.com/advanced/devices). | ||||
|    - ㍻ Soundbar Name: Choose a name for easy identification. | ||||
|    - 🔊 Max Volume: Set the maximum volume limit for your Soundbar. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| After you installed the custom component, it should be possible to configure the integration | ||||
| in the `device` settings of your HomeAssistant. | ||||
| Follow these steps, and you'll be enjoying seamless control over your Samsung Soundbar with Yassi in no time! | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| You will need: | ||||
| - a SmartThings `api_key` [click here](https://account.smartthings.com/tokens) | ||||
| - the `device_id` of your device [click here](https://my.smartthings.com/advanced/devices) | ||||
| - a name for your Soundbar | ||||
| - and a `max_volume` | ||||
| ::alert{type="info"} | ||||
| The `🔊 Max Volume` setting will readjust the internal values of the `media_player` entity from 0-100 to 0-MaxVolume. | ||||
| Therefore will the slider not display the same value as the one provided by the `sensor` entity, which will always display | ||||
| the raw value retrieved from the SmartThings API. | ||||
