Automated GitHub Repository Update Notification via Smart Light

somdn_product_page

This workflow monitors updates in a GitHub repository and uses a Home Assistant integration to turn a designated smart light red whenever any change (such as pull requests, issues, or pushes) occurs. The process begins with a GitHub trigger that detects updates in the specified repository. When an update happens, the workflow activates a Home Assistant node to turn on a smart light and set its color to red, providing a visual alert for repository activity.

The sequence starts with a GitHub trigger node configured to watch all events on the repository ‘DemoRepo’ owned by ‘dummydavid’. When an event triggers, it seamlessly connects to a Home Assistant node that executes a service call to turn on the specified light (‘light.lamp’) and set its RGB color to red. Additional notes are included for users to customize which light to control and how to select colors using an RGB picker.

This workflow is practical for teams or developers who want immediate visual notifications of repository activity, especially useful in environments where monitoring updates visually can provide quicker insights without checking logs or dashboards.
