Hi everyone!

Today I'm pleased to announce Gladys Assistant 4.26, a release that brings compatibility with Tuya-compatible devices.

It was already possible to use certain Tuya Zigbee devices with Gladys via our Zigbee2mqtt integration, but now Wi-Fi connected sockets and light bulbs are also compatible via an official Tuya integration 🎉🎉

-40% on Gladys Plus with this launch​

To mark this launch, I'm offering 40% off your first Gladys Plus payment with the code TUYA2023 !

Hurry up, it's happening on Gladys Plus here!!!

Compatible devices​

For now we only support 2 types of devices: sockets & lights.

For example:

Tuya sockets like this $12 energy monitoring socket are compatible.

Tuya compatible lights like Dalattin pack of 4 light bulbs for $20,99 are compatible!

To configure these devices, you can follow the tutorial in Gladys documentation.

If you have other Tuya devices that are not yet managed, please come to the forum to talk about them.

Many thanks to Lokkye on the forum for this development 🙌

Rotating camera images​

It's now possible to rotate a camera image 90°, 180°, and 270°, on the dashboard and in video lives.

Thanks to Lokkye for this development 🙌

How to upgrade?​

If you installed Gladys with the official Raspberry Pi OS image, your instance will update automatically in the coming hours. It can take up to 24 hours, don't panic.

If you installed Gladys with Docker, make sure you are using Watchtower. See the documentation.

With Watchtower, Gladys will update automatically.

Hi everyone!

New version of Gladys today with some really nice changes that improve the way Gladys is used on a daily basis.

Just before I get started, I wanted to tell you about a great deal I found on Amazon the other day, which I think is really worth it to get started in home automation with reliable, high-performance equipment:

Beelink mini-PCs are in flash promotion, at 159$ (-20%) for an 8GB RAM mini-PC, 128GB SSD, Intel Quad-Core processor, Gigabit Ethernet, USB 3.0, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth.

The 16GB RAM version is priced at 179$.

Some people in the community have even ordered several, so to speak 😂

The community is pretty unanimous in saying that today, mini-PCs are a more than serious alternative to the Raspberry Pi, hard to find, and ultimately at a similar price when you take everything into account ( Board + SSD + power supply + case ).

New "Devices" widget​

Hi everyone!

I'm happy to present you today Gladys Assistant 4.23, a new release with lots of new features!

Live streaming camera​

The major feature of this version is the ability to watch your cameras live on the dashboard, either locally or remotely via Gladys Plus.

The video stream is encrypted from end to end before guaranteeing your privacy, as always 😉

Hi everyone!

Unless you live in a cave, you've probably heard about ChatGPT/GPT-3, an artificial intelligence developed by OpenAI.

On the internet, everyone has tried to chat with this AI, whether it was to see if it would replace us at work, do better than us in university exams, or just to see how it reacts when asked convoluted questions.

On my side, I think this AI is a great tool, a kind of overpowered search engine, accessible to language, which has access to an impressive dataset!

Hi everyone, and happy new year!

Every year I write an article to summarize what happened in the past year, and my projects for the next one.

This year is no exception, so here is my yearly review on Gladys.

Hi everyone,

We also released a bunch of improvement that will make it more easy to install Gladys on a NAS (Synology/Unraid).

No new features were added in this release, it's a lot of long-term work & bugfixes 🙂
