It has been submitted for public availability on the smartthings platform.
A smartthings multi sensor is used to determine if the door is open or closed and a presence sensor in my car alerts my system to when i leave and when i come home.

The device type can alias the on open and off close commands and attributes.
This is a minimally modified version of ridiculously automated garage door by smartthings to accommodate myq garage door openers.
Smartthings monitors arrival and departure of car s and 1 opens door when car arrives 2 closes door after car has departed for n minutes 3 opens door when car door motion is detected 4 closes door when door was opened due to arrival and interior door is closed.
Folks could write their garage door types to have both capability switch and door control then custom smartapp code not needed.
Let me know if this makes sense.

Arrive home garage door open then the app watches the side door for the next 10 minutes i think.
For example with me it s my side door as my garage is not attached to the house.
I then installed the ridiculously automated garage door smartapp to make everything work automatically.
