[Presentation] Olivier

Hello everyone

I have long followed the Gladys project from afar, before starting in August.

After asking a few questions on the forum, I introduce myself now. I am Olivier, a computer scientist rather oriented towards operation. I am passionate about Linux and all open-source software.

I have in my SI a PowerEdge T110 ESX server with 6 Vms and three Raspberry PI, but it just broke down, and I am therefore in the process of migrating to a full Raspberry architecture

Regarding home automation, I am disappointed by Domoticz (too messy) and Jeedom (not aesthetic) that’s why I decided to switch to Gladys.

So far, in Gladys, I have managed to

  • display the living room temperature (the sensor is connected to another Raspberry, based on a D18S20 probe, DIY)
  • display the indexes (six in total) of my electricity meter (I am on the Tempo option). The data is collected by another raspberry, always DIY
  • connect my Zwave key

The data is updated by curl commands that attack the Gladys API. They are launched via a scheduler, Rundeck to name it.

Remaining to do on Gladys

  • insert switches and sensors in the zwave network and create scenarios
  • buy a Zwave thermostat to control my boiler (by the way, if someone wants to advise me of one, I’m interested)
  • control my Kody/osmc from Gladys

I now move on to the part of the things I would like in Gladys

  • Gladys’ agenda is of no interest to me, I would like to be able to add one or more webdav calendars, no Google agenda. I saw that a person wanted to start about a year ago, I don’t know where it is at…
  • Brain.js: I didn’t quite understand how it works… it must be within my reach, but I need to spend some time on it. Do you know if it is possible for Gladys to answer a question in several ways?

Example

Gladys, do you love me?
Answer 1: Yes, I love you, Answer 2: Why not? Answer 3: What does it matter to you?

  • Is it complicated to adapt the Spotify addon for Deezer… I know nothing about Javascript, I have already used the Deezer API (I even discovered a bug, yes yes) and all my playlists are on Deezer…

That’s all for now..

And thank you all for the work done Pierre-Gilles, to those who make the plugins and those who are willing to answer questions on the forum

Welcome!
Migration to full Rasp Archi. It’s great!
@VonOx and these VMs had better watch out :smiley:

Enjoy your time on the forum and « discover Â» Gladys.

Welcome @bong101 thanks for the presentation.

@Boimb you’re looking for me :winking_face_with_tongue:

Welcome,

For the Kodi part, I’m interested too :slight_smile: I’ll see if I can’t code something! There are libs available to manage a Kodi or OSMC: GitHub - martinverup/node-kodi: Node interface for Kodi using JSON-RPC · GitHub. I’ll take a look.

But due to lack of time, I haven’t finished it yet, you’ll have to be patient ^^
