Recorder

The recorder integration is responsible for storing details in a database, which then are handled by the history integration.

Are you looking for a simple way to monitor devices on your network using PING (ICMP) from within Home Assistant? Maybe you are looking to create automations based on whether or not a device is online, comes online, or a website goes down. You can also use this as a presence detection or device tracker system.

In this guide, I’m going to show you how to monitor Home Assistant entities or network devices, and then display the status in a beautiful Lovelace card.

Let’s get started.

Start up your Raspberry Pi

1. Insert the boot media (SD card) you just created
2. Attach a ethernet cable for network.
3. Attach a cable for power
4. Within a few minutes you will be able to reach Home Assistant on homeassistant.local:8123.
