Well my intellifire module is up and running again… hopefully we can make the transition to the cloud control by next winter :slight_smile:

Hi,

I’m curious about what @jackflem1 means about the “Hubitat version” of this integration based on the code by @jeeftor. Does a Hubitat version of the code exist? I haven’t been able to find it through a lot of googling.

I’m willing to write a port myself but I don’t want to do this if someone has already done this.

Here is the Hubitat code link

Habitat is running the cloud api. I’m running the local one. The cloud NOW is way more responsive. The more I play with a stuff the more I regret starting locally :slight_smile:

But if it’s winter where you guys are I can probably push a custom code set to hacs while we wait….

But yes I’m getting very frustrated on the pr process. Seems like all the devs are focused on voice right now

The Hubitat code is based off your code so it’s local. Except for getting the API key.
I switched to it quite a while ago and have had very good results. It polls the unit every 5 mins when on and every 15 mins when off.

The reason for switching was I was already a Hubitat user and now that they link to HomeKit I was able to eliminate HA. So I’m just HomeKit <> Hubitat, with voice control via HomeKit.

Oh I pill much faster which could be an issue

Thank you all for the fast response!! I’ll try out the code. I can probably submit a PR for cloud on the Hubitat version too if helpful later on, but glad to hear it’s working well just locally.

Is it still fire place season where any of you are? We’re slowly winding down in Colorado…

I was using mine every morning until last week.

Well hopefully for next season things will be smoother

Any update on this? Is there a way to use cloud without waiting for HA approval? Is there a HACS version available?

I think I need to update the translations. Trying to get to it sometime this week

Thanks for the update!

Looks like somebody submitted a PR to translations… so once that goes through I should be able to pull it in and move forward

Just checking in again to see if any updates have been made. Looks like no. This has been a painful 5 month wait for cloud control!

Hi jeeftor. Any progress on this as cold starts to approach here in the high country? Thanks!

Feel free to follow my slow progress here:

Its in the HA Maintainer’s court right now as of 3 weeks ago…

(Worse case scenario I can always HACS it but thats really more effort that I’d rather not spend if I can get this into core)…

Turned on my fireplace the 1st time this season … so … there’s a good chance I’ll end up doing a HACS integration for cloud if things on my other PRs dont move fast enough

I’ve now had my fireplace on for a week… so strongly considering a HACS option
