I think I got something working. And it is not super difficult to achieve.
caveat: I am using Home Assistant to manage my "things" How? Within Home Assistant I installed Node-Red. It is a flow programming tool that can be embedded within Home Assistant and pull information from it. >From there, I trigger an action (poll state) on a state change of the piCorePlayer - the resulting state is text-based and can be "off", "idle", etc. There doesn't seem to be power-on state... so I enabled the condition on whether or not the state is "off". the outgoing result (2 triggers) are sent to a "service call" that turns on or off the power socket. I have not debugged yet, but this seems to do the trick nicely. +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ |Filename: switch.png | |Download: http://forums.slimdevices.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=32581| +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Marsupial's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=59182 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=113459 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
