BARE-METAL USERS: Please run npm run deps from your Reactor install directory to upgrade packages. Remove any existing package-lock.json file first if it exists. These steps are only required for bare-metal installs (does not apply to Docker).
NOTE: Notable UI Change: removing widgets on the Status tab now requires you to drag the widget (by its header) to the top navigation bar and release it there. Previously, moving a widget anywhere outside the content panel would remove it, but this was troublesome for small touch displays (too easy to remove items while scrolling).
NOTE: If your Current Alerts widget displays two menu icons in its header, remove the widget (by dragging it to the top nav bar and releasing it), and then create a new replacement Current Alerts widget.
PR 0000389: Improve mobile device compatibility. Although many aspects of the UI have been tweaked for better presentation on small displays, it will continue to be the case that editing of major system objects (Rules, Reactions, Expressions) is a high-interactivity task, and the design goals do not and will not include "mobile first" compatibility for that. PR 0000387: Make VirtualEntityController operation of reactor_system.set_attribute action identical to (and in fact, just an alias for) x_virtualentity.set_attribute. On virtual entities, all attributes are de-facto writable. PR 0000386: Fix an issue with HubitatController where it could attempt to set NaN on an attribute, generating a warning in the log. The Reaction List has been modified to show a spinner while a Reaction is running, rather than holding a green highlight. Fix an issue with the Reaction List not repainting correctly after editing a (global) reaction. Additional hard-coded colors in some CSS styles have been removed in favor of CSS variables (Bootstrap- or Reactor-defined). This should help user making custom themes. Improve the error message given when a script/expression attempts to set a global variable that is not writable (i.e. it's not expressionless). The default action handlers for increasing/decreasing values in dimming, position, and volume capabilities has been updated to more consistently move in increments of the related step value. For example, when the current dimming level is 0.55 (55%), the dimming.up action with a step of 0.1 will move to 0.6 rather than 0.65 as previously implemented. Not all devices/Controllers use the default action handlers for these actions — if the Controller implements its own semantics, this change has no effect. VirtualEntityController can now do HTTP requests in actions. This allows you to create a virtual entity that functions as an interface for a device that is HTTP-controllable without the need to write a custom Controller instance. See the docs for VirtualEntityController for updated section on actions. HassController: Bless Hass to 2024.11.3I am working on some bigger structural changes to Reactor, and have been for a while now. In the interest of finishing those changes, the rate of latest builds is going to go down for a bit. I will, of course, address any serious issues that need fixing during that time.
