<p>The idea of creating <a href="https://github.com/petkov/http_to_mqtt">HTTP to MQTT bridge</a> appeared when I was trying to integrate Google Assistant with my Home Assistant after watching <a href="https://youtu.be/087tQ7Ly7f4?t=265">BRUH Automation</a> video. Right now there is no MQTT service available in <a href="https://ifttt.com/about">IFTTT</a>. Existing integration solution uses <a href="https://ifttt.com/maker_webhooks">Maker Webhooks</a> which requires that your Home Assistant instance is publically accessible, which I think brings some security concerns or simply not always possible to set up.</p>
<p>The HTTP to MQTT bridge should fill that gap. The idea is to receive messages using HTTP requests and transfer them to your MQTT broker, which can be contacted by Home Assistant. The HTTP to MQTT bridge is written using Node.js with <a href="https://expressjs.com/">Express</a> for the server part and <a href="https://www.npmjs.com/package/mqtt">MQTT.js</a> for the client.</p>

<p>One of the hardest part of being a parent is keeping a constant eye on the baby to make sure that the baby is doing well. Thus, it is not surprising that baby monitors are one of the fastest growing baby product category. However, many of the baby monitors available on the market are rather dumb and expect the parents to keep looking at the video stream or listen to the audio. This how-to will help you create a smart baby monitor on a budget and integrate it with Home Assitant. Instead of relying on the poor quality baby monitor speakers, we use our existing speakers (eg. Sonos). We can also send notifications (with pictures) to avoid constant monitoring of the feed.</p>
<p>Obviously, you can use the setup as a general purpose surveillance system to monitor noise in the whole house.</p>
