Home Automation #4

Closed mattatcha closed 10 years ago

mattatcha commented 10 years ago

I was just wondering if you were using this in a current home automation system. If so what are you using to build it?

Edit: Also thanks for writing this! It has saved me a lot of work!

Yep, currently rewriting it though. Not sure what too name it so I don't have a github repo for it.. :P

It's like a main server that is constantly connected to my itach, receiver, xbmc and mongodb. It has a web interface and socketio server for sending commands and notifications in realtime.

Haha that's exactly what I am in the process of building right now. What are you using as a remote for it? On 30/11/2013 9:48 PM, "tillbaks" notifications@github.com wrote:

Well it's a website so any device can use it but currently mostly using my note 2 phone and pc. Thinking a nexus 7 might be too big for xbmc navigation, if I can find a 6 inch tablet that might be perfect. Do you have one yet?

Well I have been using Roomie on an iPad mini that's in one app mode. I like it but Roomie doesn't do enough for me. I also use plex instead of xmbc. The iPad works really well though. It also lasts about 1-3 weeks on a single charge depending on usage. On 30/11/2013 10:06 PM, "tillbaks" notifications@github.com wrote:

I know what you mean, I want to customize everything as well. Anyway if you want to chat I'm always on irc, quakenet freenode or twitchtv. (same username)

mattatcha commented 10 years ago

Awesome. I'll try to get on there some time. Maybe we could help each other out with all of this.

mattatcha commented 10 years ago

I am not much of an irc person though. Do you have anything else?
