My Home Assistant Config
-brightgreen){kind=icon}
I do my best to keep Home Assistant on the latest release. I'm heavily utilizing AppDaemon and NodeRed for advanced/templated automations. See Appdaemon config and my NodeRed screenshots below for details. Using Home Assistant Companion for iOS, built-in browser shortcut in Android. Also using Tasker Plugin from MarkAdamsom to trigger some automations and scripts from the client-side. Most of my home automation software pieces run as Docker containers (see docker-compose for container list).
My Home Assistant installation contains many different components and runs on a Gen7 i3 NUC running Centos 7:
- Owntracks for iOS and Android
- Lots of Docker containers, some described below. See Docker Compose
- Sonoff Switches running ESPHome
- Orvibo Switches
- Radio Thermostat CT-50 (additional monitoring done through docker container)
- Raspberry Pi hosted USB Camera (M-JPEG streamer)
- ESP32 Cameras running ESPHome
- Numerous Wemos D1 Mini sensors via ESPHome (using ESPHome API, not MQTT). See /extras/esphome for configs.
- Milights with Homebrew MiLight controller using D1 Mini and NRF24L01.
- Wemo wall plugs
- Aeon Labs ZW090 Z Stick
- Aeon Labs DSA03202 v1 - z-wave Minimote
- GE Z-wave in-wall switch/fan controllers
- ZHA using CC2531 with zigbee2mqtt firmware
- Lustreon E27 bulb holders for lamp control using
Tasmota/MQTTESPHome (1MB flash)- Check out my blog post for alternative firmware flashing instructions
- Various z-wave sensors
- MQTT remote and local server (via Docker). Using remote with SSL for Owntracks (on a box through Digital Ocean with static public IP), and local MQTT to communicate with various sensors/switches around the house. The remote MQTT shares messages with the local via a MQTT bridge.
- Various MQTT Sensors (some in extras/scripts)
- Arlo Cameras (controlled through aarlo custom component)
- AppDaemon controlling a handful of automations and intelligent AC control. See /extras/appdaemon for configs.
- NodeRed for a few others (see screenshot below)
- Amazon Echos
- Amazon Alexa Smart Home API using AWS Lambda
- Custom routines configured in the Alexa App.
- Alexa Media Player Custom Component
- UPS monitoring using apcupsd
- Github actions to test beta and stable builds against config.
Also using Grafana/Influx for graphing, both running in Docker containers on Intel NUC, see docker-compose for container list. Home Assistant, along with a few other web apps, are proxied through my firewall and fronted and secured by Cloudflare.
