Why do a beta update? Unless there is required new functionality or required security updates, it’s not good practice…

That page is not specific to AD integration.

The plan was to explain how to effectively integrate between node red and domoticz, not to dump code with versions. Providing an example should suffice.

I use quite a number of Node Red based integration because of the async nature using MQTT messages between node-red and domoticz.

The beauty of mqtt-ad is that you can build many different interfaces and give each their own HW in domoticz. Very flexible. easy to change/adapt and all async so no ...

Since this is a generic MQTT-AD based comms (Gizmocuz did most of the heavy lifting for our home batteries), I will try to create a wiki page that explains the principles with the Tado example (and the associated flow). I am having some difficulties changing the wiki so will report back when done.

For those interested, I use the node red library to communicate with my Tado devices. Comms to domoticz is done by reading and posting mqtt msgs using autodiscovery (send discovery message, read/write topics).
Happy to share if anyone is interested. I only have one thermostat but the basic principle ...

Everything in docker managed through dockge is, imho, easiest to manage. Easy to backup, easy to restore even on a different machine.

All,

I have been a user of homebridge for years and it works really well. So far, I have either used google or amazon devices to talk to and execute things. That can also be done with any homepod but I also use the google home/alexa devices to say things (washer done, dryer done, door still open ...

Quite interesting! Is this compensating for the lack of update indicators in dockge?

Are you just observing behaviour or did you check the actual messages with mqtt Explorer?

Just switched to Tado. Installed the hardware, configured the token. Weirdly, I only have 1 device showing up: the away device. Switching that crashes domoticz... Switching it from the Tado app switches the domoticz device.

I am on a reasonably up to date version dated april 8th after which no ...

Here's what I did to get it to work:
Go through the setup in the wiki (https://github.com/DewGew/DZGA-Flask/wiki) up to setup actions on google
Go through these steps except for Actions on Google Console.
Rather than doing that section, look at https://github.com/DewGew/DZGA-Flask/issues/120 and ...

Would be nice how and what you have figured out. For the next one that needs to do this ...

You are right. In thought this was me being stupid and only just now figuring it out. I will post my config later. It's a bit of fiddling but it is worth it.

Nvm, figured it out. Works really well now.

Has anyone managed to get dzga-flask running behind a reverse proxy (npm)? If so, what settings have you used for Authorization URL and Token URL in teh google the developer console?

Mqtt ad is separate from normal mqtt. They serve a different purposes and can (should) be used side by side. I have one standaard mqtt and a series of mqtt ad instances (one for each device group).

Let's see. Any opportunity to replace Google with a home hosted service, I would jump at. Rhasspy has all the basic components but we need to figure out the domoticz integration in a generic way.
If it can be done with HA, it should be possible with domoticz.

I quite like dzvents due to its simplicity and effectiveness. I have over 110 scrips with a system running at a few% CPU so minimal impact despite the hundreds of devices in my system. Domoticz is very efficient anyway.
I have never done any scripts in python but I have done a few plugins here and ...

Looking for a locally hosted voice assistant, I ran into rhasspy through this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XvbVePuP7NY

The guy describes how he configures various components (piper TTS, whisper STT, ollama as conversation agent) all integrated using the wyoming protocol (to HASS ...

Smashing! Many thanks!
