Organizing/ structuring rule sets and rules
R

Hi guys,

Just wondering how you guys organize your rule sets and rules. I wish I had an extra layer to have some more granularity, but my feature request was not popular.

Maybe there are better ways to organize my rule sets.

I use the rule sets now primarily for rooms. So a rule set per room. But maybe grouping by functionality works better. Any examples/ suggestions would be appreciated.

Moving MSR from a QNAP container to RP 5 - some issues
Tom_DT

I have installed MSR on a RP5 bare metal and then copied the config and store files. Everything seems to be on the RP5 but I am missing all global expression and I don't see the controller time.

Screenshot 2025-04-06 201446.png

My browser is Microsoft Edge Version 135.0.3179.54 (Official build) (64-bit)

I have probably done something stupid or missed a step but I am stuck.

Thanks for any help.

Widget deletion does not work and landing page (status) is empy
M

Hi,
It seems that the widget deletion does not work. I tried to drag the widget to the left (as explained in here https://smarthome.community/topic/1071/deleting-widgets?_=1744037333660)
but it does not delete it. Anyone else experiencing the same problem?

Also the landing page after login is empty and seems be have some JS issues on the dev console:

Need help reducing false positive notifications
T

Good day all,
I have an notification set up for my washing machine to let me know when it's complete. I have a templete sensor set up in HAAS to let me know if it's Washing, in Standby, or off, based upon the power consumption (Shelly 1PM on outlets)

- name: "Washing Machine" state: > {% if states("sensor.washer_switch_0_power")|float == 0 %} Off {% elif states("sensor.washer_switch_0_power")|float <= 2.9 %} Standby {% else %} Washing {% endif %} icon: > {% if states("sensor.washer_switch_0_power") == "off" %} mdi:washing-machine-alert {% elif states("sensor.washer_switch_0_power")|float <= 2.9 %} mdi:washing-machine-off {% else %} mdi:washing-machine {% endif %} minutes: 2

The MSR code is relatively simple. I have a built in false positive attribute for if MSR gets rebooted, because I would suddenly get tons of notifications when I upgraded MSR.

6774565a-06cc-443f-99c1-e71301b33d83-image.png

What I'm trying to introduce, is a way to verify that I just didn't bump the knob on the washing machine when transferring loads from the washer to the dryer, which turns on the display and brings the power above the Standby threshold.

The power goes up to 3.7W for about 4 minutes if the selector knob is bumped/turned.

What would the best way to do this be? I have most of my MSR code set up for a couple of years now, and my coding logic is struggling a bit.

I think I need a power threshold to be substained for a minimum time period (say 2 or 3 minutes, above 10W), before the other triggers can act. What would the best way to do that be?

MQTT configuration question
tunnusT

I have the following yaml configuration in local_mqtt_devices file

x_mqtt_device: set_speed: arguments: speed: type: str topic: "command/%friendly_name%" payload: type: json expr: '{ "fan": parameters.speed }'

While this works fine, I'm wondering how this could be changed to "fixed" parameters, as in this case "fan" only accepts "A", "Q" or a numeric value of 1-5?

Programmatically capture HTTP Request action status code or error
therealdbT

I have a very strange situation, where if InfluxDB restarts, other containers may fail when restarting at the same time (under not easy to understand circumstances), and InfluxDB remains unreachable (and these containers crashes). I need to reboot these containers in an exact order, after rebooting InfluxDB.

While I understand what's going on, I need a way to reliable determine that InfluxDB is not reachable and these containers are not reachable, in order to identify this situation and manually check what's going on - and, maybe, in the future, automatically restart them if needed.

So, I was looking at HTTP Request action, but I need to capture the HTTP response code, instead of the response (becase if ping is OK, InfluxDB will reply with a 204), and, potentially, a way to programmatically detect that it's failing to get the response.

While I could write a custom HTTP controller for this or a custom HTTP virtual device, I was wondering if this is somewhat on you roadmap @toggledbits

Thanks!

ZwaveJSUI - RGBWW BULB - Warm/Cold White interfered with RGB settings - Bulb doesn't change color if in WarmWhite state.
N

Hi ,
I'm on
-Reactor (Multi-hub) latest-25067-62e21a2d
-Docker on Synology NAS
-ZWaveJSUI 9.31.0.6c80945

Problem with ZwaveJSUI:
When I try to change color to a bulb RGBWW, it doesn't change to the RGB color and the bulb remains warm or cold white.
I tryed with Zipato RGBW Bulb V2 RGBWE2, Hank Bulb HKZW-RGB01, Aentec 6 A-ZWA002, so seems that it happens with all RGBWW bulb with reactor/zwavejsui.

I'm using from reator the entity action: "rgb_color.set" and "rgb_color.set_rgb".
After I send the reactor command, It changes in zwavejsui the rgb settings but doesn't put the white channel to "0", so the prevalent channel remains warm/cold White and the bulb doesn't change into the rgb color.

This is the status of the bulb in zwavejsui after "rgb_color.set" (235,33,33,) and the bulb is still warmWhite.

x_zwave_values.Color_Switch_currentColor={"warmWhite":204,"coldWhite":0,"red":235,"green":33,"blue":33}

The "cold white" and "warm white" settings interfer with the rgb color settings.

Reactor can change bulb colors with rgb_color set — (value, ui8, 0x000000 to 0xffffff) or rgb_color set_rgb — (red, green, blue, all ui1, 0 to 255) but if warm or cold white
are not to "0", zwavejsui doesn't change them and I can't find a way to change into rgb or from rgb back to warm white.

So if I use from reactor: rgb_color set_rgb — (235,33,33) in zwavejsui I have

x_zwave_values.Color_Switch_targetColor={"red":235,"green":33,"blue":33} 14/03/2025, 16:43:57 - value updated Arg 0: └─commandClassName: Color Switch └─commandClass: 51 └─property: targetColor └─endpoint: 0 └─newValue └──red: 235 └──green: 33 └──blue: 33 └─prevValue └──red: 235 └──green: 33 └──blue: 33 └─propertyName: targetColor 14/03/2025, 16:43:57 - value updated Arg 0: └─commandClassName: Color Switch └─commandClass: 51 └─property: currentColor └─endpoint: 0 └─newValue └──warmWhite: 204 └──coldWhite: 0 └──red: 235 └──green: 33 └──blue: 33 └─prevValue └──warmWhite: 204 └──coldWhite: 0 └──red: 235 └──green: 33 └──blue: 33 └─propertyName: currentColor

In zwavejsui, the bulb changes rgb set but warm White remains to "204" and the bulb remais on warm White channel bacause is prevalent on rgb set.

x_zwave_values.Color_Switch_currentColor_0=204 x_zwave_values.Color_Switch_currentColor_1=0 x_zwave_values.Color_Switch_currentColor_2=235 x_zwave_values.Color_Switch_currentColor_3=33 x_zwave_values.Color_Switch_currentColor_4=33

Is it possible to targetColor also for "warmWhite" and "coldWhite" and have something similar to this?

x_zwave_values.Color_Switch_targetColor={"warmWhite":0,"coldWhite":0,"red":235,"green":33,"blue":33}

Thanks in advance.

Problem with simultaneous notifications.
T

Good day all,
I have a reaction set up, that I use for both troubleshooting and changing home modes when one of my family members either arrive or are leaving. I use the companion app for HAAS on our iPhones, and HAAS reports if the person associated with the iPhone enters or leaves the geofenced area around my home. I'm sure most MSR and HAAS users are familiar with this.

I use this rule set mainly as a condition for other rules, however, as part of troubleshooting, a notification is sent through HAAS to the companion app when the rule becomes true. The problem is that I'm getting notifications now for both arriving and departing simultaneously.

96b3f7db-ba09-499e-a78c-86903b603857-image.png

36903cdd-a87f-473b-82ef-af9ef96d3c44-image.png It used to work fine as intended. I'm not sure exactly when it changed, but now I'm getting two notifications when either of these conditions change.

Any idea what could be happening?

Problem after upgrading to 25067
R

MSR had been running fine, but I decided to follow the message to upgrade to 25067. Since the upgrade, I have received the message "Controller "<name>" (HubitatController hubitat2) could not be loaded at startup. Its ID is not unique." MSR throws the message on every restart. Has anyone else encountered this problem?
I am running MSR on a Raspberry Pi4 connecting to two Hubitat units over an OpenVPN tunnel. One C8 and a C8 Pro. Both are up-to-date. It appears that despite the error message that MSR may be operating properly.

Global expressions not always evaluated
tunnusT

Similarly as for local expressions, global expressions evaluate and update fine when getEntity(...) structure is used. However, at least when certain functions are in use, expressions do not update.

Consider the following test case:

Screenshot 2025-03-13 at 16.29.42.png

Even though auto-evaluation is active, value does not change (it changes only if that expression is manually run). MSR restarts do not help.

Note: Tested using build 25067 on Docker. I have also a PR open (but couldn't now get details or PR number as my Mantis account was somehow expired?).

[Solved] Local expression evaluation
V

Trying to understand what cause a local expresssion to be evaluated. I have read the manual but I am still not clear about it. Using the test rule below, I can see in the log that the rule is being automatically evaluated every time the temperature entity is changing. That is great...

What I am trying to understand is why the expression is not evaluated based on time as well since the "case" statement has time dependencies.

Any help would be appreciated

Cannot delete Global Expressions
SnowmanS

I am trying to delete a global expression (gLightDelay) but for some strange reason, it comes back despite clicking the Delete this expression and Save Changes buttons.

I have not created a global expression for some times and just noticed this while doing some clean-up.

I have upgraded Reactor to 25067 from 25060 and the behaviour is still there. I have restarted Reactor (as well as restarting its container) and cleared the browser's cache several times without success.

Here's what the log shows.

Local notification methods?
CatmanV2C

Morning, experts. Hard on learning about the internet check script in MSR tools, I was wondering what suggestions anyone has about a local (i.e. non-internet dependent) notification method.

This was prompted by yesterday's fun and games with my ISP.

I've got the script Cronned and working properly but short of flashing a light on and off, I'm struggling to think of a way of alerting me (ideally to my phone)

I guess I could set up a Discord server at home, but that feels like overkill for a rare occasion. Any other suggestions?

Custom capabilities in MQTT templates
M

Hi,
I'm trying to integrate the sonos-mqtt (https://sonos2mqtt.svrooij.io/) with the MSR and it's coming along nicely so far.
But cannot wrap my head around how to define custom capabilities in MQTT templates. I need this for the TTS announcements and similarly for the notification sounds where I would pass the sound file as parameter.

So this is what I have in the local_mqtt_devices.yaml

capabilities: x_sonos_announcement: attributes: actions: speak: arguments: text: type: string volume: type: int delay: type: int

And this is the template:

templates: sonos-announcement: capabilities: - x_sonos_announcement actions: x_sonos_announcement: speak: topic: "sonos/cmd/speak" payload: expr: > { "text": parameters.text, "volume": parameters.volume, "delayMs": parameters.delay, "onlyWhenPlaying": false, "engine": "neural" } type: json

So the speak action should send something like this to topic sonos/cmd/speak

{ "text": "message goes here", "volume": 50, "delayMs": 100, "onlyWhenPlaying": false, "engine": "neural" }

At startup the MSR seems to be quite unhappy with my configuration:

reactor | [latest-25016]2025-02-09T08:19:59.029Z <MQTTController:WARN> MQTTController#mqtt entity Entity#mqtt>sonos-announcement unable to configure capabilities [Array][ "x_sonos_announcement" ] reactor | i18n: missing fi-FI language string: Configuration for {0:q} is incomplete because the following requested capabilities are undefined: {1} reactor | i18n: missing fi-FI language string: Configuration for {0:q} has unrecognized capability {1:q} in actions reactor | Trace: Configuration for {0:q} is incomplete because the following requested capabilities are undefined: {1} reactor | at _T (/opt/reactor/server/lib/i18n.js:611:28) reactor | at AlertManager.addAlert (/opt/reactor/server/lib/AlertManager.js:125:25) reactor | at MQTTController.sendWarning (/opt/reactor/server/lib/Controller.js:627:30) reactor | at MQTTController.start (/var/reactor/ext/MQTTController/MQTTController.js:268:26) reactor | at async Promise.allSettled (index 0) Configuration for "sonos-announcement" has unrecognized capability "x_sonos_announcement" in actions Controller: MQTTController#mqtt Last 10:21:37 AM Configuration for "sonos-announcement" is incomplete because the following requested capabilities are undefined: x_sonos_announcement Controller: MQTTController#mqtt Last 10:21:37 AM

This is probably a pretty stupid question and the approach may not even work at all, but maybe someone or @toggledbits for sure, could point me to the right direction.
Basically the idea is to be able to send TTS messages from reactions using entity actions. I've previously used HTTP requests to Sonos HTTP API (https://hub.docker.com/r/chrisns/docker-node-sonos-http-api/) for the same functionality, but since moving to sonos-mqtt, I need a way to send the TTS notifications using MQTTController. Along with the actual message, volume and delay must also be parameterizable.

[SOLVED]Hass websocket falsely reporting ready on boot??
V

Hi, @toggledbits

I just noticed that following a reboot of my raspberry pi, some of the rules, that I was expecting to recover, are not catching up following a reboot. I have made a simple test rule (rule-m6rz6ol1) with only "after Date/time" as trigger and "turn on a lamp" as a set reaction. All my infrastructure is on the same board so Reactor, Hass, Zwavejs, ... are all rebooting.

Here is the sequence of the test case (All time converted to Zulu to match logs):

Rule "after Date/Time" set to 14:05:00z Shutdown on Raspberry Pi at 14:04:00z Power back up at 14:08:00z Rule overview shows true as of 14:08:14z waiting for 00:00:00 in GUI

From the log I can see that MSR is picking up the rule and knows that the state of the rule has changed from false to true and tries to send the update to HASS but failed with websocket error.

Here is what I see from the log:

14:04:04z shutdown complete 14:08:08z Power up 14:08:13.111z websocket connection 14:08:15:323z Reaction to the light failed, Websocket not opened After there is a series of websocket connection attempt until 14:08:51z where it seemed to be really ready.

Back in 2021 we had a discussion (https://smarthome.community/topic/700/solved-start-up?_=1738766986566) and you proposed to add a startup_delay:xxxx and startup_wait:xxxx parameter in the engine section of "reactor.yaml". When I try the startup_delay (this used to be a hard delay), the engine failed to start (I think). I then try the startup_wait:xxxx without any success. Since it wait for the connection status to be up to cancel the delay, it does not do anyting since Hass is reporting the socket up without really being up ( I think...).

Questions:

Did I figured it all wrong? should the startup_delay:xxxxx have worked? Any ideas?

Here is the log:

OK now I am stuck. I did add the log but when I submit the editor complained saying that I am limited to 32767 characters. The log from the shutdown to the time the websocket is stable is about 300000 character long. What are my options?

Multi-System Reactor
[SOLVED]Logs permissions for Docker Install
V

Not a big issue simply a request if easily doable.

The MSR logs files inside the container are owned by root witch is fine however, the permissions are very restrictive. I do not know if there is something wrong with my installation but the logs permission are set to 222 (write only). Even if the docker volume is set for Read/Write the log files are retaining these values.

I go around the problem by doing a chmod 777 on all reactor logs but every time there is an MSR log rotation the permissions are set back to 222. So unless the permission are implemented in the container there is no permanent solution to this (that I know of).

I do not know much about Docker container so I do not know what is involved here.

Can the logfiles permission be simply chaged in the container to at least allow "other" read permission?

Could the MSR log rotation routine implement a chmod to set the permission?

Just a small anoyance

Thanks

                  @a-lurker I took the plunge and purchased an OW server (Ethernet). The system is up an running with my one wire connected devices. I am however having a little problem with the OWServer Vera app on my Vera Plus. On the face of it the app is working and picking up the one wire devices:
                  4df7fed6-b8ec-470c-9a44-a0677a404fb2-image.png

                  However, when I go into the 'Add Devices' menu there are none of the sensors shown - the page is blank:

                  fda79bfe-de00-4766-a95e-009f08bc7429-image.png

                  I did a bit of googling and found the following information: https://github.com/dbemowsk/OW-SERVER_Emulator

                  I did try uploading the J_OWServer.js file as @dbemowsk suggested, but it did not solve the problem I have with vera not showing the one wire devices. I have no idea what he is explaining is the problem with the original files from the app store.

                  I appreciate that you don't have a Vera Plus, but if you could make any suggestions as to what to try I'd appreciate any input you can offer!

                  I guess that unless I get up an running I will need to find another route to pulling the values into MSR.

                    Pretty sure you can get it to work. Use the most recent version of the plugin here. The plugin in the MIOS App Store is well out of date.

                    Your screen capture can be interpreted as the following - how many devices to you have attached?

                    Devices: 14
                    Chn 1 error count: 0
                    Chn 2 error count: 0
                    Chn 3 error count: 0
                    EDS OW server web page
                    

                    You need to do a few luup engine restarts to get the child devices to show up.

                    You can use AltUi to install the plugin from the Alt App Store: see More->AppStore. Not using AltUI? It's highly recommended.

                    If I remember correctly, all the one wire devices are created automatically on first run of the plugin. So on my dashboard it says "No new devices to add" as they have already been added.

                    "J_OWServer.js file as @dbemowsk suggested" - this bug has already been resolved in the plugin at the link above, so please use the J_OWServer.js file that comes with the Alt App store plugin.

                    Many of the plugins in the MIOS App Store are hopelessly out of date - refer to the Alt App store list. for updated versions.

                    All else fails; check the log - once again this can be seen using AltUi -> Misc -> OS Command --> Tail Logs

                      @a-lurker said in OW-SERVER: 1-Wire to Ethernet Server - MSR Functionality:

                      Noted. I rolled back to my vera backup prior to my attempts yesterday. I then downloaded the files from the github link and loaded into my vera.
                      I had to set up the OW Server device manually (troubles with ALTUI - see below).

                      Your screen capture can be interpreted as the following - how many devices to you have attached?

                      I get the following now:

                      d35915de-0bbe-48bb-ad93-3d22d213ccbc-image.png

                      You can see that it does not show the three channels now, but it confirms that I have fourteen devices (which is correct).

                      You need to do a few luup engine restarts to get the child devices to show up.

                      I have done numerous Luup engine restarts, but the devices still do not show up in 'Add Devices'.

                      You can use AltUi to install the plugin from the Alt App Store: see More->AppStore. Not using AltUI? It's highly recommended.

                      I did install ALTUI, but I was not able to install OW-Server using it. The first time I pressed the install button it thought about it for a few seconds but did not install the OW Server device. Now when I press it I get an error:

                      ffab187b-27f0-479b-aa2b-d3f21c0919cd-image.png

                      If I remember correctly, all the one wire devices are created automatically on first run of the plugin. So on my dashboard it says "No new devices to add" as they have already been added.

                      The have not been created, possibly because there is an error.....

                      I get the following error in the Alturi app (similar in the vera UI) and Vera log:

                      f68f5954-bc1b-4e8f-98e7-198946248735-image.png

                      4b45b478-b6a8-43aa-8ef9-b2a1875cda7b-image.png

                      You can see from the vera log (http://192.168.68.103/cgi-bin/cmh/log.sh?Device=LuaUPnP) the requisite jasn.lua library file cannot be found. Now I am hoping this is all I need (deposited in the right place in vera) to get the OW Server device up an running. So, where do I get this file and where do I put it (please be polite!!).![768cd707-8727-4ce9-a06e-717661411e31-image.png]

                        Looking at the log it says its missing json.lua. This message tells me you are still running the old plugin from the MIOS store.

                        Not sure what hardware you are using? The old Vera 3 can't access the Alt App store as the comms library is too antiquated. Regardless you can just download the files from GitHub and overwrite the mios ones. Use the Vera user interface (ie not directly with SSH) as Vera compresses the files when you upload them via the UI. In Vera 3 they end up in etc\cmh-ludl as "lzo" files

                        The latest version of the plugin looks for ten different possibly available json libraries - see this GitHub link.

                        If you look in (a Vera 3) /usr/lib/lua you may find dkjson.lua, which in this case is a sym link to /mios/usr/lib/lua/dkjson.lua

                        You can use the command in AltUI --> Misc --> OsCommand -->Find Json to see what might be available to you. Note that this search doesn't always find what's available. But I would expect dkjson.lua is available and will be found and used by the latest version of the plugin.

                          @a-lurker Next instalment (sorry!). I re-downloaded the files from Github following the link you kindly provided in your previous post. There were three files plus a number of other files in a separate folder. I copied all the files from the .zip file into a folder on my desktop and uploaded them to my vera plus and tried a number of luup reloads. Was that correct - i.e. should I have uploaded all files (including the ones in the folder) as separate files and not in the actual folder?

                          Anyhow, something happened because now I get the following (note I have 14 devices:
                          9f77c477-648d-47f9-a045-6b224fd43398-image.png

                          and in 'Add Devices'

                          7a749d3a-607e-4f12-a10b-490b2cbb7ed9-image.png

                          So I did not see the previous result before. But you can see that my devices are not being found. I have looked in the luup logs and there are no errors I can see. I also cannot see the device number listed in the log. I don't know if that means that anything.

                          Thanks.

                            Not quite right. You only need the files in the folder called "Luup_device". When uploaded they should not be uploaded as a folder. Here is the list of files that need to be directly uploaded:

                            S_OWServer.xml
                            D_OWPressureSensor.json
                            D_OWPressureSensor.xml
                            D_OWServer.json
                            D_OWServer.xml
                            I_OWServer.xml
                            J_OWServer.js
                            L_OWServer.lua
                            S_OWPressureSensor.xml
                            

                            Did you check for a json library using AltUI? Because you will need one of some description.

                              @a-lurker I meticulously installed all the files in the folder only as you stated. I trawled the luup log and found the following. It appears that the plugin does see my 14 one wire temperature devices, but for some reason will not let me set them up as devices:

                              cfb6105f-fafe-41bf-be7c-a4760ba7e2a4-image.png

                              9c16f8a8-a5dd-4108-bc38-9119a16b52f1-image.png

                              Could this be a fundamental problem with my particular vera plus, because I have to install the device manually. It will not install via ALTUI?

                                Looks promising - hopefully you should see under the AltUI variables tab "DebugEnabled". You can set it to one and restart the Luup engine and get more log info. You should also see "PluginVersion", which should probably be 0.52? No mention on whether AltUI detected a json library?

                                "Could this be a fundamental problem with my particular vera plus, because I have to install the device manually. It will not install via ALTUI?" No don't think so.

                                  @a-lurker Sorry, yes the AltUI did detect a json library (or at least I think so):

                                  Any clues there?

                                    All looks fine to me. It's now got a json library and it's reading from the one wire server and finding all the devices. It's also the correct plugin version number. Have you checked the "No room" for see if the child temperature sensors have turned up. If none - need to do a luup engine restart. It can take a while before actual temperatures are displayed ( I think it works out to 45 seconds). They then update at the default rate of every 20 seconds.

                                      @a-lurker So I think we proved that I have the correct plugin version, the plugin is correctly set up as the one wire devices IDs are listed in the logs. What is not happening is the devices (14 No. in my case) are not showing up in add devices (similar in ALTUI):
                                      c7a0ac1d-07f0-480d-966d-5ca4c9de1505-image.png

                                      I have tried multiple luup re-loads and vera restarts, but the devices just aren't showing. I feel I am so close, yet not quite at the finish line! Is there anything else I can do or try? Thanks.
