A method for providing automatic control of one or more devices in an environment including assessing information for the devices being paired with a hub or with a central server where the hub and the central server are configured to receive status messages from the devices and to issue commands to the devices; determining device-type handlers to use with the devices; installing the device-type handlers at the hub or the central server; installing an automation application on the hub or on the central server where the automation application responds to an event and issuing a command in response to the event; receiving a device-specific message from a source device at the hub or the central server; generating, using a device-type handler associated with the source device, a normalized event message; and providing the normalized event message to a processor in the hub or the central server.
