I've been using Node Red for a few automation things too, basically as a self-hosted ifttt/zapier, and it's been working well. I would recommend it beyond home automation for the kinds of things that are "too small" to warrant their own code project and deployment setup but are still important enough to be automatic. This includes things like checking a webpage every 10 minutes and sending a text if it changes, or remapping webhooks between random services. |

1. Complex healthchecks for my side project webhookrelay.com (tests backend functionality every 30 seconds) 2. Normal HTTP healthchecks for all my websites - webhookrelay.com, keel.sh and few other backing services such as drone itself. 3. Updates homebrew formula hash when a new release is out (there's a super easy to use github integration that allows you to modify files) 4. Receives and processes emails from Mailgun about delivery failures.
So yeah, probably the best self-hosted IFTTT/Zapier out there :)
