Comment on Controlling and monitoring computers (Windows, Linux) from Home Assistant?

Hominine@lemmy.world ⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

Shell Commands are the primary tool I use to go about doing these things. I write the scripts to perform the action(s) desired and drop them on the local PC. The shell commands are then fired off from Home Assistant via SSH, either directly in the HA dashboard via human interaction or automation, or via my phone through Tasker or KDE Connect (as mentioned elsewhere hereabouts.)

The trickiest bit for me was setting the correct environmental variables in the scripts to but then it was an excellent learning opportunity! Best of luck OP and let me know if I can provide any more info.
