I published this Home Assistant blueprint to trigger 21 different commands, one for each button on this 21 button infrared remote control.
https://github.com/rvmey/TRIGGERcmd-Agent/blob/master/ha_blueprints/ir_remote.yaml

iresp32.jpg

Install the "Mosquitto broker" Home Assistant add-on if you don't already have it.

Create a Home Assistant user for Tasmota to log into MQTT using this web page:
http://homeassistant.local:8123/config/users

Connect your ESP32 device to your PC via USB and install Tasmota firmware using this web page:
https://tasmota.github.io/install

Connect it to your wifi, open the Tasmota web interface, and enable MQTT. Point it to your Home Assistant IP address, and input the username and password for the user you just created for it.

In the Tasmota Module configuration, enable IRrecv on GPIO 15:
138e7976-e53f-48a9-9d8e-def514e3f04c-image.png

Add this to your Home Assistant configuration.yaml. This will make the IR receiver(s) available as entities you can select on your automation.
mqtt: sensor: - name: "IR Receiver Blue" state_topic: "tele/tasmota_778254/RESULT" value_template: "{{ value_json.IrReceived.Data }}" - name: "IR Receiver White" state_topic: "tele/tasmota_47F4CC/RESULT" value_template: "{{ value_json.IrReceived.Data }}"
Modify it for your specific tasmota name(s) instead of tasmota_778254 or tasmota_47F4CC. You'll find yours on the MQTT configuration page.

Go to this page and install the blueprint with the IMPORT BLUEPRINT button.
http://homeassistant.local:8123/config/blueprint/dashboard
4717fc04-65af-44a3-8d86-3154900b16a4-image.png

Click the blueprint and configure your automation with an action for each of the 21 buttons on the IR remote. Notice the automation can use multiple IR receivers if you want.

The IR remotes are cheap enough you can buy a bunch and have them all over:

Optionally, you might also want to run this command in the console to prevent it from losing its config when the power going out and back on too many times:

@Ciccero-Cremonez, I've seen that issue when you've had an account and you deleted it. I'd like to handle that scenario by prompting again for a token instead of just exiting. I'll fix that in the next version of the agent.

In the meantime you could fix it by deleting your .TRIGGERcmdData folder ( c:\Users\(your user)\.TRIGGERcmdData ) and re-running the agent. It should prompt for the token again.

@gajahduduk, changing the command's voice word might be what fixed it. That deletes and recreates the Alexa device.

@gajahduduk, thank you for testing it.

What MacOS version do you have? I suspect it's v15 (aka Sequoia) because they've made it a little harder to run apps like this.

Fortunately you can work around it with these steps:
Try to run TRIGGERcmdAgent, and click Cancel. Open Security and Privacy in Settings. Scroll down and click Open Anyway next to TRIGGERcmdAgent.

@Russ Hi Russ! I have created new commands for testing purposes but only the ones that are marked as "foreground" were showing up on the website... So I used the option "remove background services" and then "install background services" and right after that the background commands appeared on website.... Not sure what happened, maybe something was stuck and cleared by itself after the reinstall...anyway, it's working properly now!! Thank you for all quick support, really appreciate that!
Best regards

@Al-S, do the new commands have a voice word? That's required for the skill to create devices.

@tal-sabadia I don't see why not.

EDIT: If you're wondering if you can use the Hebrew language, no - Alexa and Google assistant don't support that yet.

@Viniciusmbs, I'm glad you asked because I've been working on the official Home Assistant integration for TRIGGERcmd. It's almost ready. I'm just waiting for this pull request to get merged: https://github.com/home-assistant/core/pull/121268

In the meantime, you could use this method.

@Xander, there's no official x86 TRIGGERcmd agent version. If you updated agent.js, you've got the latest functionality.

@carvalhoalvez you can only add commands using the agent software you install on your computer.

You'll find the download links on the Instructions page or on the triggercmd.com home page.

@Robbie-Hoskins, if you leave the Off Command field blank, the command in the Command field will run with on or off as the parameter depending on whether you say "turn on" or "turn off."

If you don't want to use the on/off parameters, you could fill in the Off Command field. Then it will run the command in the Command field when you say "turn on" and the command in the Off Command field when you say "turn off."

Here's an example where I'm running two completely different commands for on and off.

I hope this answers you question, but I'm not sure.

Set your command to ms-settings:

Sorry @hdegenaro, I saw this and forgot to respond.

You can say Alexa, ask TRIGGERcmd to open X if you use the TRIGGERcmd, TRIGGER command, or TC skills. This page shows the sentence format for those skills.

You can say, Alexa turn on X if you use the newer TRIGGERcmd Smart Home skill. This page shows the "Smart Home" skill sentence format.

Also, if you use an Alexa routine, you can use any word or phrase you want. For example I say, Alexa, open sesame to open my garage using a routine that translates "open sesame" to "ask TRIGGERcmd to run russ on garage" so it runs the command on my Raspberry Pi that opens my garage via the TRIGGERcmd skill.

@Antonio-Francisco-S-Santos said in Testing: triggering from Alexa app on Android phone doesn't work for me.:

Olá Amigo, também estou tentando executar um aplicativo no meu celular android com a Alexa mas não tive êxodo, Alguém poderia nos ajudar?

I used Google Translate to translate that as, "Hello Friend, I am also trying to run an application on my android phone with Alexa but I had no exodus, could anyone help us?"

I just tested this on my own Android phone. I opened the Alexa app and tapped this Alexa icon:
d5986b15-2b38-409f-b07a-34dcc5802cd3-image.png

Then I said one of the sentances shown in the Smart Home Voice Commands page, "Alexa, turn on calculator on family" and the command ran on my computer.

Please confirm you've enabled the Smart Home version of the Alexa app. If not, that might be the problem. You might have enabled one of the non-Smart Home versions which are not as easy to use.
