Interact with your Home Assistant instance via Slack!
While I’m waiting for my initial ship to be certified, I wanted to share what I’ve been doing with Slack Assistant since then!
Slack Assistant is now publicly distributed on Slack, meaning any workspace (not just Hack Club) can install it and use it! The bot isn’t in a good enough state that I believe I can push for it to be on the Slack Marketplace yet, but it’s good enough for now and I’m proud of it :)
Ship #1
Pending review
You can now talk to Home Assistant, and it’ll do stuff! You can also ask it to toggle stuff on and off just like the actual Assist helper can, although as per the second screenshot I don’t think it’s a wise time for me to test that out…
Last thing to add is the slash command and it should hopefully be ready for public usage :D
You can interact with the bot on the Slack sidebar! It automatically checks in the database whether you have it setup.
Currently you can’t access the App Home to actually set it up to talk to your Home Assistant, but it shall be there soon(tm)
