If you are looking for suggestions, as the owner of both of these devices, may I humbly suggest that considering supporting them may be useful? The A+ has built in zigbee and zwave antennas, while the A2015 has a zigbee. The also have released their API.
That would be awesome. I just read about some recent Websockets work on Home Assistant. Maybe thatās the ticket to this integrationā¦
Hereās the link to the Almond+ Websockets API and devices.

While Iām not promising anything, I wrote a Java interface to the Almond+ that receives events and can perform commands as well. I have just started using Home Assistant, connecting it to my Almond+ is my highest priority task at the moment. At the very least I can use my app to copy events to HA, but Iād rather make it a direct connection.
Glad to hear. The Nmap component seems to work OK. Tried the OpenWrt component in both flavors (luci & rest I think) with no success (the interface is luci, but the A+ webUI really doesnāt play well with anything.
I have blown up my configuration and am starting from scratch (want a tabbed UI without everything thrown on one page like a big dogās breakfast + some IP camera problems).
Are you just looking for state updates, or are you looking to manage devices on the A+ from HA? First one is relatively easy, second one is harder.
If someone can point me to the websockets documentation for HA I could take a look at that. I have searched for āwebsocketā in the github repo and it found nothing, and any Google searches either end in a dead link or back to this thread.
Wellā¦Iāll take what functionality I can get, but device control would be nice. Itās got both a zigbee and a zwave antenna sitting there largely doing not very much (all of my zigbee based stuff are Hues and the hue hub works just fine for it). I would like to avoid using the built-in A+ HA stuff and let HASS do the heavy lifting - essentially just using the A+ for its transmitters. I am leery of stuffing too much code or rules into the thing. From what I have read on the forum, the more memory you hog on HA, the more problems you eventually run into.

Hereās the thread I read and thought āWoohoo! Websockets!ā But another read makes this (WSGI) sound like a precursor to websockets.
How is your java interface to the almond+ coming? Something you can share in itās current state?
I would also like to see this. Iād like to see device status, and also control the devices. Iāve migrated most of my Zwave devices over to my Aeon stick (minus the lock), but would like to be able to utilize my Zigbee devices as well. Oh, and presence detection would also be nice so that I can easily use my Dash buttons.
I too would very much like to see the Almond integrated. I am currently able to activate scenes throught IFTTT but I would like full access to all my devices locally. The delay with IFTT can sometimes be painfull.
Sorry, I havenāt been able to get back to this, I would need to update it for the new Almond+ API calls, and see if it is more stable.
