[![ko-fi](https://ko-fi.com/img/githubbutton_sm.svg)](https://ko-fi.com/A4747U9)

A Home Assistant custom integration for iPIXEL Color LED matrix displays via Bluetooth.
These displays have been recently available as B.K. Light LED Pixel Board from Action and thus get increasing popularity.

## Features

- **Multiple Display Modes**: Text Image (PIL rendering), Native Text, and Clock modes
- **RGB Color Support**: Separate text and background colors via RGB light entities
- **Clock Display**: 9 different clock styles with automatic time synchronization
- **Rich Text Display**: Custom fonts, sizes, multiline text with `\n`, antialiasing
- **Template Support**: Use Home Assistant variables like `{{ states('sensor.temperature') }}°C`
- **Font Management**: Load TTF/OTF fonts from `fonts/` folder
- **Brightness Control**: Adjustable display brightness (1-100)
- **Auto/Manual Updates**: Choose automatic updates or manual refresh
- **State Persistence**: Settings preserved across HA restarts
- **Bluetooth Proxy Support**: Compatible with Bluetooth proxy devices
- **Auto-discovery**: Finds iPIXEL devices automatically via Bluetooth

## Installation

### HACS (Recommended)

1. Open HACS in Home Assistant
2. Click on the three dots in the top right corner
3. Select **Custom repositories**
4. Add the repository URL: `https://github.com/cagcoach/ha-ipixel-color`
5. Select **Integration** as the category
6. Click **Add**
7. Search for "iPIXEL Color" in HACS and install it

2. Restart Home Assistant
3. Add integration via Settings → Devices & Services → Add Integration

### Optional: Custom Fonts

Place `.ttf`/`.otf` font files in the `fonts/` folder within the integration directory for additional font options.

## Entities

Once configured, you'll get these entities:

**Display Control:**
- `select.{device}_mode` - Display mode (textimage, text, clock)
- `text.{device}_display` - Enter text with templates and `\n` for newlines
- `switch.{device}_power` - Turn display on/off
- `number.{device}_brightness` - Display brightness level (1-100)

**Text Appearance:**
- `select.{device}_font` - Choose from available fonts
- `number.{device}_font_size` - Font size (0=auto, supports decimals like 12.5)
- `number.{device}_line_spacing` - Spacing between lines (0-20px)
- `switch.{device}_antialiasing` - Smooth vs sharp text
- `light.{device}_text_color` - RGB text color
- `light.{device}_background_color` - RGB background color

**Clock Mode:**
- `select.{device}_clock_style` - Clock style (0-8)
- `switch.{device}_clock_24h_format` - 24-hour time format
- `switch.{device}_clock_show_date` - Show date below time

**Update Control:**
- `switch.{device}_auto_update` - Auto-update on changes
- `button.{device}_update_display` - Manual refresh

**Device Info:**
- `sensor.{device}_width` - Display width in pixels
- `sensor.{device}_height` - Display height in pixels
- `sensor.{device}_device_type` - Device model information

## Template Examples

```jinja2
Time: {{ now().strftime('%H:%M') }}
Temp: {{ states('sensor.temperature') | round(1) }}°C
{% if is_state('sun.sun', 'above_horizon') %}Day{% else %}Night{% endif %}
```

## Quick Start

**Text Mode:**
1. Select mode: `textimage` (for RGB colors) or `text` (native)
2. Set text: `"Hello\nWorld"`

4. Select font and size (or use auto-sizing)
5. Toggle auto-update ON or use manual update button

**Clock Mode:**
1. Select mode: `clock`
2. Choose clock style (0-8)
3. Set 24-hour format and date display preferences
4. Time syncs automatically

**Templates:**
- Templates update automatically with sensor changes when auto-update is ON

## Font Management

- Place `.ttf`/`.otf` files in `fonts/` folder
- Restart HA to see new fonts in dropdown
- Recommended: pixel fonts like 5x5.ttf, 7x7.ttf

## Troubleshooting

- Enable debug logging: `custom_components.ipixel_color: debug`
- Check auto-update is ON or use manual update button
- Verify templates in Developer Tools → Template
- Ensure device is in Bluetooth range
