#home-assistant — Public Fediverse posts

Новомодное слово Homelabbing постепенно входит в нашу жизнь. По сути, это создание домашних серверов и запуск на них практически любого софта, который только может прийти в голову.
При этом вариантов применения просто огромное количество. Можно поставить готовые решения вроде Home Assistant, поднять какую-нибудь базу данных, собрать домашнюю медиатеку, запустить собственный сервис или очередное приложение, навайкоженное за выходные.
Начать эксперименты с Homelabbing меня подтолкнул старый ноутбук: за последний год в нём уже во второй раз умер аккумулятор, а увеличить объём оперативной памяти больше 8 ГБ было невозможно. В итоге я задумался о замене ноутбука, но старый оказался отличной платформой для знакомства с Homelabbing и Self-Hosted решениями.
В качестве операционной системы я выбрал Proxmox. На мой взгляд, это один из самых удобных вариантов для подобных проектов благодаря открытому исходному коду, большому набору инструментов для работы с виртуальными машинами и удобному веб-интерфейсу.
Первым делом на сервере появился Home Assistant, а также виртуальная машина с Linux для изучения популярного инструмента Hermes. О них расскажу подробнее в следующих постах.

The trendy new term Homelabbing is gradually becoming part of our everyday lives. Essentially, it means building servers at home and running pretty much any software you can think of on them.
There are countless ways to use a homelab. You can install ready-made solutions like Home Assistant, set up a database, build a home media library, run your own service, or deploy yet another app you vibe-coded over a weekend.
What got me interested in Homelabbing was an old laptop. Its battery had died for the second time in a year, and there was no way to upgrade its RAM beyond 8 GB. I started thinking about replacing the laptop, but the old machine turned out to be a great platform for getting familiar with Homelabbing and Self-Hosted solutions.
For the operating system, I chose Proxmox. In my opinion, it is one of the most convenient options for projects like this thanks to its open-source nature, extensive set of tools for working with virtual machines, and convenient web interface.
The first thing I installed on the server was Home Assistant, along with a Linux virtual machine for learning the popular Hermes tool. I’ll talk about both of them in more detail in upcoming posts.

The goal isn't to "fix" ADHD.

It's to stop asking my brain to constantly perform a job that computers are spectacular at doing.

Infrastructure handles awareness.
My brain handles action. 🧠⚙️

And presence matters.

🏠 Home → Home Assistant Voice + phone notification

🚗 Away → phone notification only

My empty bedroom does not need increasingly urgent warnings about my meetings.

🧠⏰ I updated one of my favorite ADHD automations.

The original version used Alexa to announce upcoming calendar events.

Alexa has now been relieved of duty. 🫡

My reminders are now handled by Home Assistant Voice + OpenAI TTS.

Ich kann jetzt mit #Homeassistant meine somfy io Rollläden steuern. #Esphome und ein LilyGo Lora32 Board sei dank. 😎

The #Ikea #Bilresa buttons keep reporting phantom button presses. I've accounted for this by only having the automations work when there's a reasonable chance I'm actually present.

Good thing I never set them up to turn anything off.

#HomeAssistant #Matter

I finally decided to get my #HomeAssistant working just for that one smart camera I have (that has a reverse-engineered API)... Took me a while to get up all the automations just for that one thing... But alas it should work better than their official app. What other smart stuff (that hopefully does not require calling-home to the manufacturer, and is not expensive) should I get?

🚀 Oh, bravo! You connected your scale to Home Assistant with an #ESP32, bypassing the “evil” Withings cloud because #privacy. 🛠️ Never mind Home Assistant already has integration... why not reinvent the wheel and burn a few hours for the same data? Genius! 🤓

@psfshr I got a 3 pack of the #IKEA #Bilresa 2 button devices some time back and have been really happy with them. The native #HomeAssistant #Matter integration is really well done.

I set up the single click to turn on/off lights, double click to turn on/off ceiling fan, and the long press to turn on/off a particular spotify playlist in #MusicAssistant

Also love the removable magnet feature on the back; I have it mounted next to my regular wall switch as a default location, and then move it around the room easily if need be.

Today's unexpectedly high temperatures on our front porch were brought about by a previously unknown weather phenomenon, "El Gato".

Took a longer lunch break and finally built out my energy dashboard on #homeAssistant, as one is required to do

It will take an hour or two for the figures to start flowing but i am super excited.

Excellent, a real life test. Just had a ~25 second power outage here. The only reason I noticed it at all is that I have #homeassistant turning on a red light when the grid is down.

(And I realized I needed a automation to turn it back off when the grid is back... forgot to setup that, oops).

Home batteries are awesome.

#HomeAssistant successfully migrated (backup and restore) to a smaller SD card, so I can take the big one on the scuba trip! It was relatively painless. Thanks, homeassistant.

Heute is #DIDay, also liste ich mal ein paar Automationen, die lokal mit #HomeAssistant funktionieren und mir (teilweise großen) Nutzen bringen.

Ich teile sie in die folgenden Kategorien ein:
A. Muss laufen
B. Sehr nützlich
C. Nett, aber nicht essentiell

I’ve been running Raspberry Pi as a home server for a long time and the most recent version – Pi 5 has been quite an amazing computer for what it was. However, my home lab urges have become stronger and I’ve felt the need to step my game up…

Skip the GPU Upgrade: Repurpose a Gaming PC or Mac for Immich's ML Queue

My Dell server is too old for a solid GPU, so a big photo import meant a stuck ML queue. Instead of buying hardware, I use a M4 MacBook Pro to burn through the backlog, plus a Home Assistant automation to flag it next time. #immich #homeassistant
