Setup listmonk and now wondering about suggestions for how to maintain a basic list and campaign. Wondering about a few things:

  • Privacy. All I want to know is if people are actually able to read the posts.
  • Any thoughts from others who’ve been managing their own lists / campaigns.
  • Basic idea is to use for email and RSS to post updates on latest happenings, maybe once a month.

Just want this to be both successful and not annoying. 😄

Join in on the DURP Challenge, where you finish a project you are otherwise ignoring for the Winter season. Putting this out as part of Linux Prepper podcast, which is a DIY and technology-focused show on struggling to accomplish things while still enjoying life.

Keep in mind you are welcome to submit any sort of project you are otherwise putting off! I’ll be happy to share them on the show once we hit Spring. This gives you a solid three month window to get it together! 100% completion is not required, but you’ll share whatever progress you have made.

The challenge is simply about clout, and sharing in what we’ve accomplished, over any actual prizes. If you’ve already finished a project in the recent past and want to proudly share it, that is fine!

Reddit post

HAKboard, a comprehensive Home Assistant integration for Kanboard, a free and open source Kanban project management tool.

Features:

Interactive Lovelace cards

Integrates project, task and people data into sensor entities

Documented entity schema aids in dashboard and automation development

Supports multiple instances, enabling blue/green deployment

Configurable replication and project filtering settings per Kanboard instance

Zero YAML editing required

Functionality:

In this initial release, it is a one-way sync of Kanboard data into HA, with deep-linking to Kanboard projects from the HA dashboard. It will create an entity for every project that provides aggregate data for tasks, task status, assignees, columns etc… giving you an excellent birds eye view of your environment, as well as the ability to create automations from the sensor data.

A very near release (see Roadmap in the repo) will introduce the creation of entities for each task and person, and likely others. We wanted to ensure the core entity generation system is rock-solid before opening it up to potentially thousands of new entities and thought it prudent to stagger this functionality.

If you use Kanboard (or want to try it), this turns your HA dashboard into a real-time project hub.

Repo & Docs: https://github.com/aktive/hakboard

⚠️ IMPORTANT INSTALL NOTES: I’m still working through the HACS repo approval process. In the meantime, please follow these instructions if you would like to install (existing Kanboard server required):

HACS > ⚙️ (Top right) > Custom Repositories > Add: https://github.com/aktive/hakboard as type Integration

Configure your Kanboard instance via Settings (Bottom left) > Devices & services > Add (Bottom right) > Search for HAKboard

NOTE: If HAKboard does not appear (either as an integration or a dashboard card), please refresh your browser or restart HA.
