After a while I got the need to make different IoT solutions in my house work together, and integrating not-so-smart or not-open things as well. Currently very satisfied with
-
Netatmo reporting too high C02 levels, then jamming up the ventilation. Sounds easy, but the ventilationsystem is not exactly made for this. Upgraded it to a controller with built in webserver and then reversed engineered that. Got a node out on github now, Komfovent, using the ajax calls to send commands and cherio to pull out sensor data. Also, if indoor temperature is over a threshold, and outdoor temp is lower, ventilation is cranked up high.

Alarmcompany does not want to open their platform. Verisure. Spent some time reversing their app and later discovered a neat and maintained nodejs package for the purpose. Now built node-red nodes on that, extracting all sorts of sensor data and alarm state. If alarm is now turned on, my smarthome solution is set to away as well.

My smarthome vendor, Futurehome, got a neat zwave based solution. However, quite simple and wife-friendly, so have to use node-red for anything advanced. They have node-red support, with a neat main site node, that hooks on to an event stream from them. Anything happening in the house, I get an event to node-red as well.
