I suppose a Raspberry Pi 2 build of Indigo is still not feasible?

It's not something that we can do - contact IFTTT...

Not really - the biggest barrier (though by no means the only one) is the Mac Client which can't be ported to another platform because it uses Mac OS X SDKs for all of the UI. We'd have to build a completely new configuration client using some other technology, and that's not a trivial task.

And just use the pi as a server with remote access?

Just to throw in my 2 cents, I think that techs that don't have existing 3rd party plugins should be given more weight in this than ones that do.

Well, let me say: None of the suggested. I would like to be able to backup and restore the sticks network before anything else.

I think is is an essential function which has to be adressed.

Thanks

Re: Which 3 technologies/devices would you like to see suppo

technologies:
1. zigbee support
2. august smart lock
3. myq garage door openers
4. lennox icomfort thermostat

features:
1. presence and notification through indigo touch
2. which implies users and so then needs granular permissions (like restricting some users to just some control pages)
3. backup/restore of zstick gen5

+1 from me for the z-stick back-up/restore.
I have 9 Fibaro RGBW for indirect light in the ceiling (height: 3.7 m), more than 20 Aeotec Smart switches (behind a wall switch), 6 Motion detectors (at 3 m height)...
If the Z-sticks fails, it would be a nightmare to reconfigure everything from the scratch.

Z stick backup and restore is HUGE! I lie awake at night fearing stick failure.

Re: Which 3 technologies/devices would you like to see suppo

First, Thanks Matt & Jay for asking this question.

Now ... we've had lots of comments and the votes have been posted for some time.

What can you share with us in terms of what we may expect from Indigo in response to the poll and comments?

What are your reactions to the results of the poll and the comments?

Thanks,
mjc

Hmmm, what can we communicate? Well, first, thanks to everyone to take the time to reply. We'll use that feedback, along with all the rest that we get (pretty constantly) to determine what's going into upcoming releases.

Again, thanks. We did write up a blog post about the Amazon Echo.

And, no, your Jedi mind tricks won't work on us... 8)

Our policy is to not discuss what's going into future releases until such time that we're comfortable communicating that information. But, nice try!

These aren't the Indigo updates you're looking for.

You can go about your business.

Move along.

Re: Which 3 technologies/devices would you like to see suppo

Hi,

With the issues that were pointed out in the Blog regarding the echo integration and the Skill API problems, I was wondering if an approach similar to the way the HA_Bridge works with the Vera system might work? In that method the built in Home Connect talks to the HA Bridge Java application which is running on your internal network. You create the devices you would like to control through a web interface in the Ha bridge Java app. It imports your devices and scenes from the Vera. I think this uses the Lighting API which I believe is pretty thin at the moment. I'm guessing it really offers you ON and OFF methods but I'm also guessing it will be enhanced with more features as time goes on.

No, I'm not volunteering to write this external interface app. I've been out of the programming scene far to long. I was just curious if the concept was even an option.

Jeff

Re: Which 3 technologies/devices would you like to see suppo

I suppose that's an option for the current 3rd party solution. However, like all reverse-engineered solutions, it's not one that we (Indigo Domotics) would support directly since it's a somewhat fragile implementation - meaning that Amazon could change the way things work and it would break and our users would be stuck until someone figured out how to fix it (if it would even be possible). We don't feel that it's in the best interest of our users to supply a solution that could break at any moment and run the risk that we can't fix it.

We have a hard enough time keeping up with Apple's OS releases every year breaking things... :D
