Post about a bridge for Indigo control of SmartThings?

Was I dreaming?

I pretty vividly recall someone talking about developing a bridge to let Indigo use an ST hub as a dumb device. This would, at least in theory if fully implemented, allow Indigo to control Zigbee devices. But I can't find any mention of this even after searching the forums here and reading LOTS of posts.

Anyone?

Maybe I was thinking of Ham Bridge.

Any users of it here?

I believe there was discussion of it being a good idea - but I don't recall anyone actually saying that they were developing one.

Anyone out there using Ham Bridge to connect to a SmartThings Hub?

Based on some feedback about Ham Bridge and what is necessary for it to work (mostly that my ST hub would have to stay online and I would have to add some programming to various SmartApps) I'm not going to proceed on this.

If there's someone out there actively considering development of a Zigbee plugin for Indigo, I will consider donating some or loaning most of my Zigbee stuff to them to help with research and testing. Otherwise I'll sell it on the ST forums.

As time has gone on, I've been getting away from the Indigo-Only attitude that I had for many years. I found that one central control for everything - from sound to TV to thermostat to lighting wasn't as important to me. This has been because I'm more into manual-automation rather than scheduled-scene-automation. So I've been looking for best-in-class automation products, and I simply have a page on my iPhone that has links to various things like Hue for lighting, MyQ for garage door, and more lately Ecobee for thermostat and Spruce for irrigation.

The big thing for the latter two are remote sensors. With Ecobee I have a MUCH more comfortable house, as the HVAC adjusts to the temperatue in the rooms people are in. For irrigation - and I'm just installing this now - the Spruce system has temperature/moisture sensors in key areas throughout my yard, and will control irrigation not based on a schedule but on the moisture of the area (plus forcasted precipitation).

So I'll enjoy plug-ins as they are available for these products, but until then I'm pretty satisfied being able to control them easily from my iPhone - even if they aren't integrated into Indigo. Sort of a sea-change for me.
