A better way is to buy the Raspberry Pi Zero W instead of the original Raspberry Pi Zero as it comes with built-in wireless LAN and Bluetooth connectivity.
Still sincerely thanks for your sample I will really appreciate to progress in the Home Assistant project.Note: If any project requires wireless connectivity you will have to buy wireless modules. Camera (OpenCV) could also be used with python (Home Assistant kernel).Ĥ) Install operating system on the onboard integrated emmcĥ) test using the onboard bluetooth to talk to a portable bluetooth speaker allowing to take the speaker where I change the room place in my house.Ħ) test using integrated micro (on the portable speaker) to see if I may ask some small sentences to Home Assistantħ) using GPIOs for events doorbell and entrance door switch detectionĨ) use a small USB hub to connect USB keys when back home to see who is back or gone and then let Home Assistant saying what is needed to those peopleĪs you can see I still have a lot of work but is so busy in other things I need more time to progress on it. But also a better control of its use due to python langage. The main reason I decided to use Home Assistant in place of Gladys project is then the smallest size of Home Assistant in place of Gladys project. Just running Home Assistant is enough then wil just communicate with small network packet by using MQTT protocol. It means I do not need to run Web Server (Apache or NGINX) before running on it the home assistant that use Node.js. To reduce the use of BPi-M2+ memory I decided to use Home Assistant in python project because python and specifically Home Assistant has its own web server. MQTT is the main secure (using SSL/TLS) way to communicate with object of things (self created with Arduino Nano).Įven if Gladys project is able to use MQTT I saw it run with Node.js I did not studied.
Then I though use the BPi-M2+ for Home Assistant called Gladys project.īut I still does not have home automation protocol driver (ZWave, 433MHz, or other) then to reduce cost I decided to use MQTT through the existing personal network. By using even Bananian or ARMBian on this BPi-R1 I will use it for the tiny cloud Cozy (due to its integrated harddrive). Now I got Bananian working on this BPi-R1 I need to try changing it to ARMBian to stay constant in my used operating systems. I though to be able to use this BPi M2+ for even a tiny personal cloud called Cozy but as I already have a Banana Pi R1 router with a 2.5" onboard SATA harddrive I finally replaced its operating system named OpenWRT by Bananian (Debian like). I installed ARMBian image on a microSD and boot it perfectly.I won this Banana Pi M2+ and is really happy to received it.
