Home automation hub built to serve my specific requirements.

Due to Golang runs pretty much anywhere, but some specifics work best with a Raspberry Pi.

Features

• Powering devices on/off. Alexa: tv on, amplifier off
• Color of lights. Alexa: set kitchen lights to yellow
• Dimming lights. Alexa: dim kitchen lights to 50 percent
• Controlling playback. Alexa: pause computer (context dependent, f.ex. pauses/resumes Spotify, YouTube or Netflix)
• Routines (via Alexa), for example every weekday morning turn bedroom lights on, read news and weather.
• Infrared remapping (receive via LIRC, transmit via Logitech Harmony Hub). Dedicate any remote to use with your home automation. When remote button pressed, send IR signal to a device not originally controlled by that remote.

Supported integrations

• Voice control for all of this (via Alexa)
• IKEA Trådfri lights and Trådfri wall sockets
• Infrared devices (via HarmonyHub)
• Custom 433 MHz power sockets (via custom hardware attached to Particle)
• Computer (via EventGhost)
• Happylights
• MCEUSB (via LIRC)
• Logitech Harmony Hub
• Wall power sockets (via custom hardware)

Adapters / sensors architecture

Configuring

Configured using HCL syntax. Example config file:
