IA Gladys and Alexa with my roller shutters

I’m using the SonOff orb-ZBRBS module. No pairing issues with zigbee2mqtt, but I can’t control them by voice. Gladys Assistant responds to me in English (see attachment) and Alexa can’t find the module (even though I already have lights and plugs recognized by Alexa).

Hi @Chris75 :slight_smile:

Is this for controlling roller shutters, if I understand correctly? How is your Sonoff switch recognized in Gladys?

I confirm that currently, this isn’t handled by either the AI or Alexa, but it could be added!

I’ve been working on adding roller shutter management to Gladys’s internal AI :partying_face:

Opening the shutters:

Opening to 50%:

This will be included in the next version of Gladys :wink:

Well, I took care of Alexa:

The PR:

This development will go out in the next version of Gladys :wink:

Thanks @Chris75 for your feedback!

Awesome! Thanks for these must-have addons for me!!
Otherwise, what does « PR » mean?

Oops, sorry :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes: It’s a technical term. « PR » stands for Pull Request in English: it’s simply a code change proposal :slight_smile:

In this case, these code changes will be deployed in the next Gladys update :wink:

Ok, thanks. Otherwise, is there a place where the programming of these addons is explained? So I can be less of a fool in the future!

Actually, these aren’t addons :blush: I modify Gladys’ code directly. The idea is that all features are natively integrated into the software.

This is one of Gladys’ strengths: everything is designed to work together, which simplifies usage, improves reliability, and avoids having to manage a multitude of plugins.

If the topic interests you, I regularly publish videos on YouTube, both on using Gladys and on its design and development:

I hope you’ll find what you’re looking for there! :wink:

Yes, I’ve already watched many of your videos, and it’s thanks to them that I discovered Gladys and decided to start with you by buying the starter kit instead of the HA one! But can you tell me which video talks about Gladys’s programming mode?

Recently I made this video with AI:

By the way, if you have time, I did a lot of « live coding »:

And there are others :wink:

Okay, thanks. I can feel a headache coming on!!!

Hi @Chris75,

These features are available in Gladys Assistant 4.81:
