OpenHAB Integration

[noctividus]

Description This feature would allow controlling of OpenHAB items from companion buttons.

This would not be platform dependent, because OpenHAB can be accessed via a REST API.

Documentation for the OpenHAB REST API can be found here- https://www.openhab.org/docs/configuration/restdocs.html

However, I recommend installing a local copy of OpenHAB to test. There is a REST page that makes it very easy.

Usecases OpenHAB integrates several smarthome products. I personally use it to set several office lighting scenes during my stream.

• Use it to toggle a key light on/off connected to a smart plug or smart switch.
• Change colors or on/off/dim status of background lights. -Turn HVAC on/off quickly if it is interfering with audio recording. -Automatically play certain videos on chromecast devices connected to the system.
