Exshome

DIY Elixir-based smart home.

System dependencies

• MPV

Project goals

• Extensibility
• Test coverage
• Should support different Single Board Computers

Getting started

• Install dependencies with mix deps.get
• Setup database mix ecto.setup
• Start Phoenix endpoint with mix phx.server or inside IEx with iex -S mix phx.server. Now you can visit localhost:4000 from your browser.

Caveats

• UNIX domain socket length is limited to about 100 bytes. Application uses these sockets to communicate with MPV. It will not work if the path is larger.

Security considerations

Right now Exshome is designed to run in a home network, so it has no auth. It can be dangerous to open it for a whole Internet.
