Anyone using #Mealie and #HomeAssistant?
I've spent some time creating an integration that mirrors the shopping lists and also creates a read-only calendar of the meal plan. Beta so things may break but if anyone wants to try it feedback is most appreciated.
Got my Chipolo ONE Point! First impressions: yep, it’s a little Bluetooth item tracker. 😁
Interestingly, it has a button just like the standard Chipolo ONE, but it doesn’t do anything after the initial pairing. No ring-your-phone feature or anything… I wonder if that’s something Google will add to the Find My Device network/spec later? Not a big deal, I almost exclusively trigger that accidentally on my Tiles. 😅
I have two choices to run Home Assistant on my future #Pi5. With HAOS and as a Docker container. My idea was initially HAOS, but the Pi5 will be equipped with an SSD, have 8GB and may be able to take on other tasks. That's why a OS Lite 64 bit might be more flexible. Are there any major advantages to HAOS (apart from being efficient with resources)?
Seid heute ist mein #apsystems nicht mehr erreichbar. Es sieht so aus, als hätte es sich die Firmware aktualisiert und dabei vergessen die lokale API wieder zu aktivieren. Habe mich per Bluetooth verbunden und das korrigiert. Die Fritzbox zeigt das Gerät an, dennoch komme ich nicht mit Postman auf die API und natürlich kann sich #Homeassistant auch nicht verbinden. Hat das Problem noch jemand? Bitte boosten…
Inzwischen läuft #Homeassistant als VM in #Proxmox stabil und nahezu komplett in der Funktion.
Auch die USV ist verbunden.
Es fehlt eigentlich nur noch Bluetooth.
Gefühlt läuft es deutlich stabiler und performanter als auf dem @homeassistant blue.
My #homeassistant produced this nice image, because today was totally clear sky and my solar panels were providing full power. It's funny how doing things at home is so clearly visible in power usage.
My wife bought this fancy light for our living room thinking we would just be able to put our usual brand of smart bulb inside only to find it came with an LED bar. Luckily it came with a dimmer box in the ceiling mount so I was able to bodge a Shelly Dimmer inside and hook it up to #homeassistant. Kudos for Shelly for allowing this to be done without additional apps or cloud services! I wish all smart home companies could be like this!
Think I need to get some air quality sensors that talk Zigbee. Probably go down the path of IKEA, since the store is both close by and the product affordable. In the realm of “good enough”, if you will.
After a bit of a frustrating weekend getting my Echo Atom to attached to Home Assistant. That is now done. I made a customer wake word. It was not working, then a few hours later it did work, not it has stopped again.
It was also hit or miss if it would actually do what I told it. It would tell a lamp on, but not off. The same command worked via text. Any ideas?
Je parle de #HomeAssistant, de calendrier, de Google Calendar (et aussi un peu de Airbnb) dans mon dernier article, pour automatiser certains comportements de votre maison pendant vos vacances (ou louée par quelqu'un d'autre).
My Hilderbrand Glow smart meter interface dropped connection and became unavailable in #HomeAssistant for the first time but I didn't notice for a few days so my energy tracking is missing.
I didn't want to create automations for each critical sensor to alert me when they drop off so with a bit of searching I found a way to do label based triggers.
This wasn't easy and with people relying on HA for more critical things this needs some thought and to be part of core. (1/2)
Loving #PhilipsHue's long press to turn all the lights off. With some node-red and #HomeAssistant, I just extended that to our #lego light kits and display lights.
It was slightly infuriating to do because I had to figure out which event it was and to do that I had to look at all events coming from HA just to find "hue_event" among all "state_changed" events. It was simple after that to find the "long_release" event type for the "hue_event".
This is probably a dumb question, but..... I have some lights that I want to switch on to their brightest setting. With the Phillips Hue app, I can switch it to "Bright" scene, and the brights go to their full brightness. How can I do that with a automation, and not using a Hue scene?
If I send a rgb_colour of 255,255,255 it's not the brightest mode of the bulb.
