Wled: Integration with Google assistant

[pradhyuman18]

How can I Control it with Google assistant

[Aircoookie]

Hi,

sorry that is not possible because the Google Assistant doesn't have a local API. I'd need to have a complicated cloud infrastructure to support Google home which I can't do as a small open source project.

You can do it with the free IFTTT website though, which is compatible with google Assistant. It requires you to do a router port forwarding so the ESP8266 is accessible from the internet. Then you need two IFTTT Webhooks applets that trigger <YourPublicIP>:<YourESPNetworkPort>/win&T=1 for on and <YourPublicIP>:<YourESPNetworkPort>/win&T=0 for off, respectively.

[Aircoookie]

This is not a bug, and there is no way for me to add native Assistant support in the near future sadly.
Therefore I close this issue now.
Feel free to reopen it if you have any further ideas :)

Könnte man nicht eine von Google unterstütze api integrieren? Die api von tuya smart (smart life) ist offen und soll leicht verständlich sein. Viele sub-hersteller (smart life oder auch hama) nutzen die.
Vielleicht hilft ja der link?
https://docs.tuya.com/en/cloudapi/cloud_access.html#access-mode

[Aircoookie]

Könnte man überlegen. Würde sicherlich funktionieren, aber im Moment möchte ich keine cloudabhängige API integrieren. Es ist aber möglich, das Ganze mithilfe von IFTTT und Blynk zu bauen: https://www.instructables.com/id/GOOGLE-ASSISTANT-CONTROLLED-SWITCH-USING-NODEMCU/ dazu könnte ich mal ein an WLED angepasstes Tutorial erstellen, weil Blynk ja schon implementiert ist.

Hey, ja mit ifttt habe ich schon einiges umgesetzt; aber die weiblichen Mitglieder der Familie bombardieren die Google home Geräte mit Phrasen die ich vorher nicht angelegt habe und sind dann enttäuscht, wenn auf "hey Google, lightbox Farbe Lavendel" die Farbe dann nicht umgesetzt wird.
In cloud APIs geht's dann aber.

Vielleicht könnte man die Farben ja sprachbasiert mit rgb Werten hinterlegen? /win&color=red/rot

This is now possible as there is a local API exposed in the New SDK i think this should be reopened. https://developers.google.com/assistant/smarthome/concepts/local

right on!

[Aircoookie]

Not yet looked into it in detail, but I agree that this is a promising change!

[Algebruhm8]

Any update as to having google automation? I've tried using WebCoRE with Smartthings, no luck. Couldn't do Blynk as I'm new to programming. I already set up my ESP8266 with my WS2812b lights and WLED but I want at least Google home to turn them off or on. Any other ideas? I tried adafruit but i'll have to see as I followed a tutorial and I got a bit lost

[tomXGames]

Are there any updates for this feature? I'm looking forward to being able to control my lights with my google home natively!

[axlan]

I spent a little time getting the Blynk webhook working for one of my projects. It takes a bit of leg work, but here's a write up of what I went through to use Google Assistant via IFTTT and Blynk: http://www.robopenguins.com/web-based-door-control-update/

Relevant to this issue: Google announced that their Local Home SDK has emerged from developer preview and is now GA:

https://developers.googleblog.com/2020/04/local-home-sdk-ready-for-actions.html

[t6a]

This would make WLED even more user friendly and ready for the mass

[geekafy]

Just reading the updates, this is exciting! Can't wait to see this feature land! :-) Keep up the great work!

[akshatkumar369]

Is there a tutorial how can i integrate wled with google assistant?

[jgrafwallner]

Watching this open issue eagerly!

[spiff72]

Following this one as well. My kids will appreciate the ability to control their desk LEDs with the Google home speakers in their rooms!

[Legsmaniac]

+1 here for Google Integration in the near future too.
I'm a Google fan more than I am an Alexa fan.
Although, besides IFTTT, I could control it with Home Assistant but I would rather see direct native support. 🙃

Found this. Any help? @Aircoookie ?

[justusiv]

I was able to set this up. First using this guide for having a static FQDN with a cert https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hqRT2VKhxJ0 i had no router loopback problems. Then i mainly used the https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/google_assistant/ guide to do the rest. I think i also watched https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MMtCzX6US9M and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mDqllkmxiOI the only gotcha was google no longer accepts the apikey and will only accept a json fil. so i had upload my json file i got from google to home assist and make my config file look have this.
google_assistant:
project_id: myproj-845100
service_account: !include myproj-43756435645.json

The part i dont have working and would be happy to do a write up if i figured out how would be how to change things like fx via google.

[justusiv]

after briefly talking to @Aircoookie and "e_town" on discord i was able to setup saying things like "OK google turn on Bedroom popcorn effect"
Since there are currently 103 effects and 52 palettes i decided to whip up a quick PowerShell the generates the data for the configuration files.
No real time was spent on this but should work for the basics.

EDIT
I should also note that there are several words that google assist doesn't really like. Things like "twinklecat" should be twinkle cat otherwise google doesn't know what to do. also things like "eyes" and "ice" get it easily confused. maybe adding triggers for both would be the best handle of that. and the last thing i added was a random one as well.

bedroom_random:
    name: Bedroom Random

set_random: 'curl "http://192.168.0.123/win&FP=$(( $RANDOM % 51 ))&FX=$(( $RANDOM % 102))"'

- id: '9999999950051'
  alias: random
  description: ''
  trigger:
  - entity_id: input_boolean.bedroom_random
    from: 'off'
    platform: state
    to: 'on'
  condition: []
  action:
  - data: {}
    service: shell_command.set_random
  - delay: 00:00:10
  - data: {}
    entity_id: input_boolean.bedroom_random
    service: input_boolean.turn_off

Hi, just wanted to ask if there are any news on the integration?

[anjeshshrestha]

maybe it can have more future support once Connected Home over IP becomes more developed and supported

https://github.com/project-chip/connectedhomeip#connected-home-over-ip
https://www.connectedhomeip.com/

[Aircoookie]

CHIP seems awesome! Perhaps this is finally the standard we've been waiting for that will ideally work with all major voice assistants without needing a "manufacturer server". I just hope that the overhead for implementing security won't be too much for an ESP8266, they tend to be quite unusable in most things crypto.

https://github.com/project-chip/connectedhomeip#connected-home-over-ip
https://www.connectedhomeip.com/

isnt this what zigbee was suppoed to be until it got butcherd by the very people involved in CHIP ?

Ahh so its not a radio its piggybacking over other radio stacks, ooh i wonder if this could be used to run connected lights/switches/sockets on ethernet over power (powerline) well when they support ethernet that is

I haven't had the chance to go through those links yet, but is it controlling it via http request on the local network? If so I think I can help you with controlling the fx.

[tronicsmasta]

Ok got it working using Google assistant and IFTTT. Took all day of experimentation. Will make an instructable soon

[ShiHotKeyMushroom]

I am looking forward to it! Does it allow for the effect to be changed?

Would it be possible to use ingredients in the "if" side of ifttt to
control certain aspects of the lights?

I haven't tried that yet. I was excited I got it to work with http requests. Will try with dynamic parameters today and maybe I can get json working with it.

[ShiHotKeyMushroom]

I tried setting this up for myself...but my port forwarding doesn't have
specific internal ip as one of the parameters...so...gotta figure out
what's going on there...

symbols are in between if this + then that.
