Thanks for responding Keith.
I want to control automation on Google Home through an HE user app via Google Assistant Silent commands.
First several Koolertron smart outlets for Christmas.
When I click the link above and copied here:
- It is an Outside App to silently control Google Assistant.
- It also references using a Raspberry Pi
- I want to silently control devices connected to Google Home via Google Assistant.
When I read the documentation it appears you need to use a Raspberry Pi and you would need to change your "Silent Commands" to match what you have assigned them in Google Home.
In order of confusion:
- Do I need a Raspberry Pi for that app to work with HE or does it work on HE or can I use an always on PC? If a PC, any differences between using a Raspberry Pi that I should be aware of?
- Would a simple edit and replace work for updating device names throughout the app or do you just edit certain words that reference the device?
Once I have an idea on how to start, I'll reply back with what I needed to do for the next guy or possibly have to ask another question.
Thanks in advance.
I had just started following links and reading the topic knowing where I wanted to go but not realizing that without someone else doing the same the question becomes opaque.
