• Home Assistant (running on your network, you need the Dark Sky sensor and Calendar component)

Installation

• Make sure the display is connected
• Clone this repo
• pip3 install -r requirements.txt
• Copy .env.example to .env
• Modify .env to use your API credentials etc
• Git clone https://github.com/waveshare/e-Paper.git and symlink e-Paper/RaspberryPi%26JetsonNano/python/lib/waveshare_epd to waveshare_epd
• Run eink.py to update the screen

If you don't have the display connected, you can test to code by running test.py file.
