NOTE: This integration is in very early stages, so expect things to not work as expected. Feel free to open issues to report anything you find, but I would not recommend using this for production usage yet.

Lock Code Manager is a Home Assistant integration that allows you to more easily manage your usercodes on your locks. Once you have configured it, the integration will set and clear codes on your locks as needed depending on how you decide to configure them.

Features:

• Synchronize multiple locks with a single set of codes
• Optionally use a calendar entity to activate and deactivate a code
• Optionally define a maximum number of uses for a code before the code is disabled

Locks from the following integrations are currently supported:

• Z-Wave
• Virtual custom integration. See the Wiki page on this integration for more details on why it was built and how it works.

The code was written to make it (I think) easy to add support for locks in other integrations. Check the Wiki if you want to learn more about that and take a stab at it. Contributors welcome!

The best way to install this integration is via HACS.

1. Set up your locks as entities to your Home Assistant instance through the corresponding integration (e.g. Z-Wave)
2. Add this repository as a custom integration repository in HACS
3. Go to Settings > Devices & Services > Add Integration
4. Select Lock Code Manager
5. Follow the prompts - additional information about the configuration options are available in the Wiki

The Wiki is a WIP but has some content that might be helpful for you!

Lock Code Manager makes it easy for you to generate a UI for managing and monitoring your PINs.

I spent some time contributing to keymaster, and what I learned working on it, and the regular complaints users had about it generating too many automations, entities, etc. led me to take a different approach. This isn't a knock on keymaster, unfortunately a lot of what is built in this integration wasn't possible for most of keymaster's life. I briefly considered implementing this into keymaster but:

1. keymaster is still a great solution that works as is, and is more feature rich than this integration will likely ever be.
2. keymaster is surprisingly simple under the hood because it makes Home Assistant do a lot of the heavy lifting for figuring out when to enable and disable a usercode. This integration, on the otherhand, attempts to do all of the heavy lifting internally in code, which means it will generate less entities and automations but it is likely more fragile to changes in HA Core or even changes in the codebase.
3. It would be impossible to seamlessly migrate users from the current implementation of keymaster to this integration's implementation. Rewriting keymaster to do this would have been the equivalent of creating a new integration anyway, and since it's a separate integration, users have a choice of what implementation they want to use. Additionally, you can install the integrations side by side and slowly migrate your locks over in either direction as needed.
