NetAlertX - Network presence detection now with workflow automation 🔀

Hey y'all 👋

I usually don't post release updates, but this one has me excited :)

Here come 🔀 Workflow Automations for your network device management.

So, what can you do? You can change any Device field, or delete the Device itself, if any number of custom conditions are fulfilled. For example, you can UN-archive a device if it's detected online. Or group devices with a specific name or vendor into a group. Or assign devices to a location depending on the IP they get...

These are only examples, but I think you get the idea. Happy tinkering and automating! Share your workflows in Discord or GitHub Discussions.

This is huge!!!!

Has anyone else made this work with home assistant yet? I'd love a guide, and if it doesn't exist yet; hopefully I'll have one by the end of the week.

Hey @Nouveau_Burnswick@lemmy.world ,

HA is supported via the existing MQTT integration. There is even a HA addon available: https://jokob-sk.github.io/NetAlertX/HOME_ASSISTANT

I wanted to use this on my RPI2 buy I think the CPU is too old 🙃 I to however have a openWRT router and I suppose I can achieve similar functionality with a bit of hacking on the OS.

Yeah, RPI2 is a bit underpowered. NAX also supports import from openwrt.
