Howdy y'all!
As of last night we have a working home-assistant instance and MQTT broker again. Hooray!
Documentation will eventually be updated at
https://wiki.57north.org.uk/projects/home_assistant once there's more to do with it.
At the moment MQTT is unauthenticated, please don't abuse it, but you can use it for
non home-assistanty things too.
Currently the only thing on the network is the discolight, and I'd quite like some
more stuff to control.
MPD integration was quite helpful, especially pausing playback when you pressed close
space.
I want to get the neon strips over in the sofa area on the system so they can easily be
activated/deactivated so I'm going to pick up some sonoff switches.
Do we want to go as far as putting workbench power on the system so they can be powered
down by hitting 'close space'?
Temperature sensors might be quite nice too - has anyone got a suggestion of ones that
will be compatible? Anything else anyone can think of?

Hi
This sounds great, nice one.
I've a couple of sonoff devices, I think they're the BASIC-R2 ones, one in
a 1 gang cable, and one in a 4 gang. I'll bring them next time I'm in.
They've been sitting here unused for a year at least.
Cheers
Andy

Hey, that'd be awesome.
Immidiate plans for them, I think, would be as I said below - power for the sofa area
lighting/etc and probably the workbench with the drills etc as a starter.
When I'm back up I'll have a play!
