Areas and Device Registry
-------------------------

Since v0.87 of Home Assistant there is a notion of Areas in the Device registry. hass-cli lets
you list devices and areas and assign areas to devices.

Listing devices and areas works similar to list Entities.

.. code:: bash
$ hass-cli device list

You can create and delete areas:

.. code:: bash
$ hass-cli area delete "Old Shed"
- id: 1
type: result
success: true
result: success
$ hass-cli area create "New Shed"
- id: 1
type: result
success: true
result:
area_id: cdd09a80f03a4cc59d2943053c0414c0
name: New Shed
You can assign area to a specific device. Here the Kitchen
area gets assigned to device named "Cupboard Light".

.. code:: bash
$ hass-cli device assign Kitchen "Cupboard Light"
Besides assigning individual devices you can assign in bulk:

.. code:: bash
$ hass-cli device assign Kitchen --match "Kitchen Light"
The above line will assign Kitchen area to all devices with substring "Kitchen Light".

You can also combine individual and matched devices in one line:

.. code:: bash
$ hass-cli device assign Kitchen --match "Kitchen Light" eab9930f8652408882cc8cb604651c60 Cupboard
Above will assign area named "Kitchen" to all devices having substring "Kitchen Light" and to
specific area with id "eab9930..." or named "Cupboard".

Events
------

You can subscribe and watch all or a specific event type using `event watch`.

.. code:: bash
$ hass-cli event watch
This will watch for all event types, you can limit to a specific event type
by specifying it as an argument:

.. code:: bash
$ hass-cli event watch deconz_event
