Does anyone here have any experience with getting data from SmartThings api? I could use some help… Thanks!

Just wanted to stop by and say a huge Thanks for all those who have helped me find my way through all this. [ @strawberry-3-141 , @sdetweil , @Mykle1 and so many others!]

I have kinda been working on Home Assistant and it’s looking like it’s the way to go for me. I have so many things that I can control in my house that it seemed pointless to just continue to not use it.

I will check in from time-to-time though. If you need the best way to contact me is johnw8017@gmail.com I do check my messages here but not nearly as often as I used to and even less on Github. SO if you’re having an issue please feel free to email me!

Thanks!

The more things change… the more they stay the same…LOL

@dmolony I running both on Brave Browser so at the moment I have tabs set up one for each and when I want to look I change out of full screen mode and look.

Yes I know, NOT very practical but it does work for me because my MM install really isn’t made to be seen other then the other mirrors I have set up in my house and the ‘server’ is really for HA as it’s a 32" touch screen.

I just have it installed that way because my ‘server’ is a mini-ITX that runs a real CPU and 8 gigs of ram :) Some of my modules for MM cannot run on a pi as to get my data it’s very taxing soooooooo… a mini ITX it is :)

@cyberphox how’d that work out? I’m thinking it looks great. Touch frame just arrived today… Waiting on camera… then I’m off.

I’ll use his modules plus my own so should turn out pretty good I’m thinking.

@cyberphox Well hey what could happen? LOL I’ll try it out!

Started the project to ‘rebuild’ pictures will follow soon.

I’ve put in the electrical and tearing the old mirror apart to put in IR Touchframe today…

Will post pics soon! :)

@jalibu OH I’m not disagreeing with that! I see your point and honestly I think that would be awesome!

That would be a big undertaking for someone to do that. Problem is always the same… Time. Everyone is offering their time for free and all have full time professions so could it be possible? Yes. Likely? No. Not unless someone wants to build it and @MichMich accepts it. I personally don’t have time or desire LOL

If you’re just interested in Arduino and led lights this one may be of interest.

Under Cabinet lightingt

This is a project that does require some planning to lay out wires, etc.

But what it does is gives me automatic lights without any other controls needed. The sun comes up the lights go out… turn on kitchen light the lights go out. I generally run most things through Home Assistant and you can this too but I didn’t feel it was necessary to do that. Just made them ‘automatic’ on their own.

@sdetweil NOR do they even try. They also apparently do NOT know how to ask for help either. When I first came on here I read and used the “SEARCH” feature to see if anyone else was having the same issue and how they fixed it. I also went out on the internet and searched for solutions…it’s OPEN SOURCE, not free.
