I just picked up a SEL controller for Christmas and hooked up a few switches in my house to use it. I can control them all flawlessly from the web interface, the app and even the JSON api.
Now I'd like to use my voice. I would like to keep the commands as simple as possible, so not saying "tell Homeseer" is a must. It seems like the easiest way to do this and fire events are through Virtual Devices.
So I've got a few added, All Lights, Kitchen Area, even one to turn Chromecast On (although I don't have any IR blasters so it's just dimming some lights for now).
It seems like I'm about to create a ton of virtual devices and events to go along with them. Which I suppose isn't necessarily a bad thing. Is this the best way to be handling voice automation? Can I automate adding/removing devices and events?
I saw the script from Jon00 but it looks like that requires the "tell Homeseer" prefix that I don't want to use.
