all of those higher priced pi's etc start getting way too expensive for me when you need to add the power adapter, storage, case etc as well while you can get a used NUC for a bit over 100€

#

in theory I could run hass on an old pc I have but the 100W idle power consumption is a bit much

clear ferry May 24, 2019, 3:56 PM

@light trout , yes, you're right. People generally don't care, so they don't make the choice. The "client's" expectation is that you'll develop a relationship with them such that you'll know and care more about them than they care about you. It's a customer service issue at a personal level. If I really want to make an impression, I take the time and put in the effort to make sure I know how you prefer to receive messages. Then, I utilize a tool (a broker, such as you've mentioned) to transmit the messages on my preferred sending platform to their preferred receiving platform. I as the sender would take responsibility for making sure the system is sending to the right platform for each person, because, as you stated, they won't care enough to make the choice. They would prefer that I just simply know what they want to receive. (Same problem Facebook has in developing the algorithm that's responsible for displaying content on our walls.)

#

I see so you will actually do the job to utilize a tool like that, I have not heard of anything for the sender to use, but there are muliple platforms for the reciever to use, where they get all their chats in one client.

If it where me I would probably create some thing (in python 😄 ) that would act as a broker, store name + targets in a json file.

There are allready python libs for almost any communication channel out there already (includung SMS and email for the ~~old~~ legacy users).

which is the internal NATed address

lets see if I can change it away from NATing and use DHCP passthrough..

@clear ferry the guy who writes our cash up system owns his own software development company and he was saying he has like 5 staff in NZ to maintain servers and deal with customers but when ever he has a new job he out sources the whole thing and pays less that 25% of what it would cost him here, says he has one 16 year old who works really fast and costs less than the rest.

Conservative governments never care about common sense

But they know it doesn't work anyways. But their mates get rich buying companies for pennies on the dollar the exploiting their assets as much as possible

Add in some government regulated monopoly on top of that to keep that company running no matter what, and you've got a perfect deal (for them)

Anyone that has found any good product to attach to a regular light switch, to make it able to send a command? Basically just looking for something that is preferably 230v powered, that has a mometary switch input that gives allows me to ultimately toggle something in HomeKit (through Home Assistant/HomeBridge/Homey or whatever works). Shelly 1's SHOULD work, as they have a detached mode where the switch input and relay work independently, but I found no way to make use of that mode. I could use a Shelly 1 with the relay empty and just soft-toggle my Hue lights depending on whether the (empty) relay is on/off but I would rather not have the relay in there flipping and ticking.

@molten osprey I was going to build soft lights under the kick boards in the baby room, but GOD DAMNIT orderering slim\cut to order plexi glass is expensive, you have to pay for the whole plate, so best offer I got from the US with shipping was like $400 for 8 meters of plexglass cut to fit under the kickboards, so gave that up 🤷

molten osprey May 26, 2019, 11:53 PM

it seems silly now to have 10gbit wires in your home, but it also seems silly now that 10mbit wires were once considered "blazingly fast" ... and thats not that long ago!

having to move it around makes it less convenient as well so having two might be better

I have a question about setting up redirection from outside my network

#

I bought a domain, which includes an SSL certificate that I need to create/activate so I'm working on that. Do I need to do anything aside from setting up the forward from my domain provider? And I'll need to have to certificate copied to my hassio folders and setup the http section in the config yaml?

#

Or if there's just a walkthrough you know of, I'd appreciate it. I've gone through the docs and watched the walkthrough for setting up DuckDNS but not familiar with this stuff so just playing with it

clever mortar May 27, 2019, 8:20 PM

#

All you should need to do is simply create a hostname in your domain, and have that resolve to your WAN IP

deft reef May 27, 2019, 8:20 PM

#

But if you know of guides or have tips, I'd appreciate it while I fumble through all of this

#

Ok, but how does that work when my IP changes?

clever mortar May 27, 2019, 8:21 PM

#

Does your DNS provider support dynamic DNS?

deft reef May 27, 2019, 8:21 PM

#

Not sure, I think so

#

Namechange.com is who I used

clever mortar May 27, 2019, 8:21 PM

#

If they do, then use some appropriate software to do that

#

If not, you can set your own domain's hostname as a CNAME of your DuckDNS hostname

deft reef May 27, 2019, 8:21 PM

#

Ok, I'll need to setup something on my machine/local setup that just udpates their dns right?

clever mortar May 27, 2019, 8:22 PM

#

Yes

deft reef May 27, 2019, 8:22 PM

#

Ok, I wondered about that too

#

If it's silly to redirect from the domain to the DuckDNS and then just set that up

#

Or if that's reasonable

clever mortar May 27, 2019, 8:22 PM

#

Using a CNAME isn't a redirect

#

That's an alias, and is a pretty typical way of doing that kind of thing

deft reef May 27, 2019, 8:23 PM

#

Oh, so is the cname something I'm doing locally?

clever mortar May 27, 2019, 8:23 PM

#

No, that's a thing in the DNS for your domain

deft reef May 27, 2019, 8:23 PM

#

Ok

clever mortar May 27, 2019, 8:23 PM

#

Very simply, your DNS hostname can be an A record (IP address), or a CNAME (alias for another record)

deft reef May 27, 2019, 8:23 PM

#

So my domain links to the DuckDNS and then I is setup DuckDNS as in the many guides?

clever mortar May 27, 2019, 8:24 PM

#

Yes

#

myhass.example.net becomes a CNAME for example.duckdns.org

#

You then update example.duckdns.org as normal

deft reef May 27, 2019, 8:24 PM

#

Ok gotcha

#

Thank you

clever mortar May 27, 2019, 8:24 PM

#

The SSL certificate has to be for myhass.example.net

deft reef May 27, 2019, 8:24 PM

#

Should I just use the SSL certificate setup through DuckDNS?

clever mortar May 27, 2019, 8:24 PM

#

No

deft reef May 27, 2019, 8:24 PM

#

Or figure out creating the one with my domain

#

Ok, do I need both?

clever mortar May 27, 2019, 8:25 PM

#

If you set it up with DuckDNS you cannot use your own domain

deft reef May 27, 2019, 8:25 PM

#

Makes sense

#

I'm sure that prevents malicious redirect

#

So I setup the domain SSL and then copy that to my local setup also?

clever mortar May 27, 2019, 8:26 PM

#

Well, more that when you enter https://myhass.example.net in the browser, if your cert is for example.duckdns.org then the browser will reject things

#

You'll need an SSL cert for the hostname you connect with

deft reef May 27, 2019, 8:27 PM

#

Ok

Thank you

@clear ferry I have those energy monitors on my washer/dryer and it send notifications to my phone and my mom's phone but if I'm doing laundry my mom doesn't want the notifications and vice versa any ideas how to set who gets the notifications, I thought about a lovelace toggle but I don't want to have to open my phone to change who gets it

clear ferry May 28, 2019, 4:16 PM

#

@dark swallow do it based on presence perhaps, if she's not home she won't get the notification, if that works 🤷

dark swallow May 28, 2019, 4:18 PM

#

Yeah I was thinking that too, or putting some kind of button by the washers that activates notifications for each user

clear ferry May 28, 2019, 4:22 PM

#

That would also be possible, to toggle a user, but it would be confusing without a display to verify the user

#

Idea, you could use a RGB light in the washroom to change colour between users being notified

#

Then you won't need a display

dark swallow May 28, 2019, 4:27 PM

#

That's a good idea too! I have lutron products so I was thinking of using 3 button Pico remote, top button only turns on notifications for user 1, middle turns on for user 2 and button turns off notifications for both

#

#

and I would put a label on each button to clarify which does which

That could work also

Are there any good developers for HA that are available for hire?

#

I might be eligible for a grant to have my project funded to implement a functional IOTA wallet but I need to submit a budget to see it to completion, if anyone is interested please get with me. Draft proposal is here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/e/2PACX-1vQf74cTXqDVIBi43qmAuYDh-tf95OJIy-Z5S4LlEuq4ftGM-QzFO7T-szT-KGCcSMac1cDWu6CueUsi/pub

Hi guys, I have a problem. The problem is that I had grafana up and running, and had temps displayed fine, all temps in one graph and names were visible. Then I fucked up (had not set up persistence in docker for grafana) so it was lost. Now I can only diplay the mean of all the temps, or add them individially, which is super annoyingÏk55?ùÑ(ö×u

#

The setup is deconz for temp data, inflixdb for data persistence, grafana for display purposes.

@simple talon how well does it integrate in HA?

Try smarting it up with a plug, the initial integration might be troublesome

Hey Everyone! Just wanted to introduce myself. I found Home Assistant a couple weeks ago and I've already got my system converted over from Wink... so much faster, cooler and more powerful. I'm running it on my Unraid server with a bunch of other dockers.

I now want to focus on getting my config more organized and into git. So that's what i'm working on next, and probably use that git-pull plugin.

I've been telling all my friends about the cool stuff I've been doing with HA and already got one of them to set it up on a Pi.

Just wanted to say hi! Another devout HA user from the suburbs of Chicago!

dark swallow May 31, 2019, 4:41 PM

#

Anyone at that point where everything is up and running how they want and the only way they can keep tinkering with HA is to buy more smart home tech?

clever mortar May 31, 2019, 4:44 PM

#

Even without more tech, there's a constant fiddling with things to make it "just right", or exploring some new component

#

More tech sure helps though 😄

orchid rose May 31, 2019, 4:48 PM

It quickly becomes an obsession though, got to watch out for that, lol

I used to smoke 40 a day when I lived in Ireland, was way too cheap for cigarettes over there 😛

dark swallow May 31, 2019, 5:38 PM

#

@clever mortar Oh trust me I know I am still tinkering but I just come to points where I am like I can keep making this just perfect or I could buy this one thing to make it easier, or to add this feature to the automation etc, it's just super tempting

unreal orbit May 31, 2019, 5:41 PM

#

I get comfortable for a while and then I think things like "gee, opening this door by hand sure is an inconvenience" and that starts me down the slippery slope once again

dark swallow May 31, 2019, 5:47 PM

#

Yup! Same here. I had an automation on my phone that set a laundry timer via nfc. Then I'm like well I can make this batter by adding energy sensors. I bought 2 of 4 sensors, now I want the other 2 sensors

#

Also my family wants to play music through the house, I made a system to do it but they "don't like it" so now I just bought 1 chromecast audio made it a little better and now I just bought a 2nd and really trying not to buy a third right now

clever mortar May 31, 2019, 5:49 PM

#

I went Sonos

#

Not cheap, but everybody can use it

#

Once they roll out the Google Assistant support, pretty soon folks will just be able to ask for music and it'll happen

dark swallow May 31, 2019, 5:51 PM

#

Yeah but we have existing home theater speakers in the living room and dining room, and patio which covers 80% of house but no easy way to play music through it. So that were chromecast audio 1 is. second one is for second floor, again existing speakers. and third would be for my bedroom/office again existing speakers

clever mortar May 31, 2019, 5:51 PM

#

Nice

dark swallow May 31, 2019, 5:52 PM

#

Also it took way too long to teach everyone how to use chromecast 3 years ago so teaching them sonos wouldn't be worth it

#

I am just super sad Google discontinued the chromecast audios! They work amazingly and since neither google home or mini have audio out only way to play music through speakers and not tv

I'm just waiting for the IKEA Sonos speakers 😄 🎉

I should replace my 65" 4k with a 75" 8k, they are getting really affordable now

midnight adder May 31, 2019, 7:15 PM

is there any 8k content yet

it's only like since a year that 4k is readily available content-wise

hell 4k gaming is still well below 60fps isn't it

At this point I'm just going to wait until I can turn my living room into a holodeck

clear ferry May 31, 2019, 7:24 PM

@midnight adder the upscaling makes it worth it anyway, and the price is only like 5% up from a 4k

Bigger = better when it comes to picture. I doubt 4k vs 8k is going to make any difference though

#

Ever since CRT it's been a compromise between, size, picture size, quality and contrast. You can only have two of those max at this point unfortunately..

clear ferry May 31, 2019, 10:51 PM

#

@orchid rose watching 1080p on my old top of the line plasma is like watching 360p compared to the same 1080p clip on my 4k screen because of upscaling, I suspect watching 4k on a 8k that upscales will be similar 🤷
