How to update the configuration.yaml file using data from a payload

[davidbd7]

Hello everyone,

I am using Pyscript to try to achieve some functionalities that I want for home assistant. Currently, I am trying update the alarm code in the configuration.yaml file to a new code that a user can specify using a frontend that I built. So once they enter the new code, that code is recieved through a webhook that is connected to home assistant. So is there a way to use pyscript to open the configuration.yaml file and update the alarm code with that new code? Any help would be appreciated!

same problem, when i want to open some files with:
with open(datei_path, "r") as datei:
i become:
Exception in </config/pyscript/hello_py.py> line 13: with open(datei_path, "r") as datei: ^ NameError: name 'open' is not defined

Try looking through pyscript-compile section of the documentation https://hacs-pyscript.readthedocs.io/en/stable/reference.html#pyscript-compile

You can open files as demonstrated here,
https://github.com/JacobLChrzanowski/HomeAssistant/blob/cbce3b1d5703c750a2df7261a7eb427a22f28b7d/CONFIG/pyscript/example.py#L154
There may be some upper limit on file size so paging n-bytes through a file might be necessary. I haven't played around with it yet.
This does not require pyscript-compile but that does solve another issue I had so, thanks to ALERTua to showing me that :)
