I have automated most of my home and being all in Apple's ecosystem led me to Homebridge on a Pi. HA is often mention throughout the forum but Homebridge/HOOBS is a far more simplistic solution.
At present, in the context of this forum, my Homebridge integration exposes the State of Charge (SOC) of my Giv AIO and the percentage of the max PV power being generated in my Apple Home app. I can then use these to create automations elsewhere in my smart home (turn a light bulb red when SOC hits 12%, turn on the dishwasher when PV is a 75% and SOC is >55% by way of examples).
Were I to be able to set my WW schedules via my Home app (or my preferred Controller app) that would simplify my whole home experience. An API would need to be exposed and a Homebridge dev would need to be minded to code it.
An automation in Home would then be as simple as the others
15 minutes after sunset close the blinds
When Goodnight open the Velux 12%
At 23:31 charge AIO to 80% and so on.
All ones automation in a single place (for the arguable mass majority who want to plug and play as oppose to yaml in HA).
The purpose of this post is to start the conversation, discover if we have other Apple centric members, establish if there is an appetite for WW with Homebridge? Would there be sufficient reach/impact were WW to do so? Could WW be confident that the effort would be worthwhile... or are we still very early?
