F2 Control — Home Assistant add-on repository

One-click install for the f2-control crop-steering engine — the autonomous P0→P1→P2→P3 irrigation controller from HA-Irrigation-Strategy.

Install (one-click, by URL)

1. In Home Assistant: Settings → Add-ons → Add-on Store → ⋮ (top-right) → Repositories.
2. Paste this URL and Add:

   https://github.com/JakeTheRabbit/f2-control
   

3. Close the dialog — F2 Control now appears in the store. Open it → Install.

This is the add-on repository — paste the URL above into the Add-on Store → Repositories dialog (not HACS, and not a subfolder URL).

After installing

1. Kill switch. Create input_boolean.f2_control_enabled (a Helper, or deploy f2_control/f2_control_package.yaml to /config/packages then reload). OFF = safe — the add-on reads, computes and notifies but never opens a valve.
2. Configure (add-on → Configuration): lights_on_hour / lights_off_hour, your notify_service, and the feed EC/pH sensors if they differ from the defaults. The token is automatic (homeassistant_api: true).
3. Start it. The log shows starting | kill-switch … | token present: True.
4. Watch a photoperiod with the kill switch OFF, then flip it ON to go live.

You also need the companion Crop Steering integration (entities + setup wizard + dashboards) — install it via HACS from the main repo. Full step-by-step: https://github.com/JakeTheRabbit/HA-Irrigation-Strategy → docs/AGENT_INSTALL.md.

Updating

The add-on bakes its code at build time, so when a new version ships, use the add-on's Update (or ⋮ → Rebuild) — a plain Restart keeps the old code.

The add-on source is developed in the main monorepo at addons/f2_control/ and published here on each release (scripts/publish_addon.sh). File issues on the main repo.
