Welcome to Juham™ - Juha's Ultimate Home Automation Core

Description

juham-core extends the functionality of Masterpiece object by adding capabilities for MQTT communication and integration with time series databases. The base class provides only a minimal set of interfaces. Actual features, such as MQTT and time series database implementations — along with home automation-specific functionalities — are provided through separate plugin modules built on juham-core class.

Project Status and Goals

Current State: Pre-Alpha (Status 2)

The aim of Juham™ is to have fun by learning Python and GitLab ecosystems, by developing a home automation framework capable of controlling all the devices in my home, with the potential to be adapted for other homes as well.

In its current form, Juham™ may still resemble more of an experiment (or even a "mess") than a "masterpiece," but I’m working hard to turn it into one!

Special Thanks

This project would not have been possible without the generous support of two exceptional individuals: Teppo K. and Mahi.

Teppo K. provided the initial spark for this project by donating a Raspberry Pi, a temperature sensor, and giving an inspiring demonstration of his own home automation system—effectively dragging me down the rabbit hole of endless tinkering.

Mahi has been instrumental in translating my half-baked ideas into Python code, offering invaluable support and encouragement—while also ensuring that every time I thought I was done, I wasn’t.

Because of these two gentlemen, my already minimal spare time dropped into the negatives as I desperately tried to push the system to some semblance of professionalism.

I’m truly grateful to both—really. 😅
