How to use google homegraph api with my own django cloud?

Question

I am trying to build a smart-home project and I want to use voice commands to control the smart devices in my home and I found out that I have to use homegraph API for it. So is there anyone who can help me , like I want to use my own django based cloud network for this and there is firebase examples only available on google docs. Please guide me if someone know about it '-'

Answer 1

Django-based I'm assuming is the Python-based framework.

While the conceptual docs may include snippets just in Node.js, you can look at the REST API pages to get the JSON request/response fields needed to make it work.

To make the development process a bit easier, Google has published the service protos that can be used to programmatically define the Home Graph request, response, and data objects. You can also use the google-api-python-client package. This lets you build the the homegraph service using an API like:

from googleapiclient.discovery import build

service = build('homegraph', 'v1')
# Here you can call methods on the service object
# service...

Then you can create and execute requests based on the library documentation.

You will also need to setup authentication before requests will execute.
