I’m currently in the process of creating a Zaparoo integration for home assistant and I’m looking for some feedback. If you’re not familiar with the project, Zaparoo is the open source universal loading system that lets you launch games and media instantly using physical objects.
What this integration allows you to do from home assistant is launch and stop games, query currently running media, and listen to Zaparoo notifications to trigger automations (eg. if I launch Point Blank on the Mister, turn of the Christmas tree).
As of right now there is no branding (pull request is open to the brands project) and requires installing as a custom repository or manual installation.
This looks fantastic! It’s exactly what I’ve been looking for since the MQTT stuff came out in Zaparoo.
I don’t have time to test it just yet, but I will later in the week hopefully.
Only initial feedback I have is that I think the repo might have a typo: it’s “ha-zaproo-integration” rather than “ha-zaparoo-integration”
Good catch on the typo, once the branding request is merged I’ll fix that
