I wanted to install a SSD on the Windows 10 desktop that my Node-Red ran on and ended up reinstalling windows. I had exported my flows and re imported them, all good. Later on I spent a few hours adding more good stuff. Everything was fine until a few days later when after a reboot, all my flows were gone!
Talk about a mix of anger, panic, and regret. Why didn’t I back up my work!?
The August 2016 DFW Hackster MQTT meeting was a blast. Here is a link to the online presentation. https://sway.com/DpyBV3JjNYoTFrsx If …
Cortana can easily be extended to aid you with your DIY home automaton projects. In this example Cortana sends MQTT commands to open and close a garage door as well as ring the doorbell with custom jingles. By the way, you don’t have to use MQTT, you can also do a whole lot of other things as well from opening a file, opening a program, or launching your favorite websites.
As of the writing of this entry I am frantically trying to finish documenting the MQTT Doorbell and Garage Door Opener devices in separate posts. Hopefully I can get those whipped out in a few days.
