Errors after updating to MQTTController build 25139
tunnusT
I'm running MSR build 25139 on Docker, using MQTT controller 24293, and everything working as expected. But if I try to upgrade to MQTTController build 25139, I'm getting the following errors on MSR UI: An Entity Attribute condition in "Lay-Z-Spa auto heating off" (Terrace) failed because the referenced entity "Lay-Z-Spa States" (mqtt>layzspa_states) does not have attribute value_sensor.god Last 11:20:37 An Entity Attribute condition in "Lay-Z-Spa auto heating off" (Terrace) failed because the referenced entity "Lay-Z-Spa States" (mqtt>layzspa_states) does not have attribute temperature_sensor.green Last 11:20:37 An Entity Attribute condition in "Lay-Z-Spa filter pump auto off" (Terrace) failed because the referenced entity "Lay-Z-Spa States" (mqtt>layzspa_states) does not have attribute temperature_sensor.red Last 11:20:37 An Entity Attribute condition in "Lay-Z-Spa filter pump auto run" (Terrace) failed because the referenced entity "Lay-Z-Spa States" (mqtt>layzspa_states) does not have attribute value_sensor.pump Last 11:20:37 An Entity Attribute condition in "Lay-Z-Spa watchdog" (Terrace) failed because the referenced entity "Lay-Z-Spa States" (mqtt>layzspa_states) does not have attribute value_sensor.status Last 11:20:37 My MQTT configuration (local_mqtt_devices.yaml) for the related entity is: layzspa_message: type: ValueSensor capabilities: ["temperature_sensor", "value_sensor", "power_sensor"] primary_attribute: power_sensor.value events: "layzspa/message": "power_sensor.value": json_payload: true if_expr: '! isnull( payload?.PWR )' expr: "float(payload.PWR)" "value_sensor.air": json_payload: true if_expr: '! isnull( payload?.AIR )' expr: "float(payload.AIR)" "value_sensor.pump": json_payload: true if_expr: '! isnull( payload?.FLT )' expr: "float(payload.FLT)" "value_sensor.god": json_payload: true if_expr: '! isnull( payload?.GOD )' expr: "float(payload.GOD)" "value_sensor.lock": json_payload: true if_expr: '! isnull( payload?.LCK )' expr: "float(payload.LCK)" "value_sensor.unit": json_payload: true if_expr: '! isnull( payload?.UNT )' expr: "float(payload.UNT)" "value_sensor.error": json_payload: true if_expr: '! isnull( payload?.ERR )' expr: "float(payload.ERR)" "temperature_sensor.green": json_payload: true if_expr: '! isnull( payload?.GRN )' expr: "float(payload.GRN)" "temperature_sensor.red": json_payload: true if_expr: '! isnull( payload?.RED )' expr: "float(payload.RED)" "temperature_sensor.target": json_payload: true if_expr: '! isnull( payload?.TGT )' expr: "float(payload.TGT)" "temperature_sensor.value": json_payload: true if_expr: '! isnull( payload?.TMP )' expr: "float(payload.TMP)" "temperature_sensor.virtual": json_payload: true if_expr: '! isnull( payload?.VTM )' expr: "round(float(payload.VTM), 1)" "temperature_sensor.ambient": json_payload: true if_expr: '! isnull( payload?.AMB )' expr: "float(payload.AMB)" "layzspa/Status": "value_sensor.status": if_expr: '! isnull( payload )' expr: "payload" "layzspa/button": "value_sensor.button": if_expr: '! isnull( payload )' expr: "payload" and in reactor.yaml I have: "layzspa_states": name: "Lay-Z-Spa States" friendly_name: 'Lay-Z-Spa States' include: layzspa_message I realize my MQTT configuration might be a bit unorthodox, but could there still be something unintentional in the latest MQTTController build? If needed, I can provide detailed logs.

🎉 My very first MSR controller: OpenSprinkler
therealdbT
Since today is my birthday - and I still pretend to be unconventional - I'm giving away a present to this wonderful community and I'm releasing my first OpenSprinkler controller for MSR. It was real fun to code it - and while it's still WIP, it seems to work OK for me. It's polling-based at the moment, but I'll add support for updates via MQTT very soon (it's already partially coded). Get it at (install is similar to MQTTController and such): https://github.com/dbochicchio/reactor-opensprinkler Feel free to try it. It's beta software, but it's stable. I'll update it weekly until all the tasks from my todo list are empty. Since I've learnt a lot from this controller, I'll explore new controllers soon.

Advice reqeusted to migrate MSR from Bare Metal to Container
T
Good day all, I'm in the process of trying to shut down my 10 year old Linux home server that served many purposes, but primarily it's what I used for my NAS/Plex Media server. I migrated the NAS aspect of the server in November of last year to a true NAS solution (Ubiquti UNAS Pro), which is rack mount and much more efficient than my old tower, which it's only side benefit was heating my home office during the winter. Unfortunately it also means heating my home office during the summer, which were about to be in full swing. I have two things running on this 10 year old server at this point. MSR and pi-hole. I'm running Plex Media Server on Fedora Workstation in Podman on mini PC, which is much more energy efficient than my old tower. My next step is to migrate MSR. I know there are images of MSR out there, and creating it is well documented. I'm going to be using Podman instead of Docker for various reasons, but they work very similar. What I don't know, is what I need to do to migrate my existing Bare Metal installation over to a container. Has anyone done this? Any advice?

Reactor (Multi-System/Multi-Hub) Announcements
toggledbitsT
Build 21228 has been released. Docker images available from DockerHub as usual, and bare-metal packages here. Home Assistant up to version 2021.8.6 supported; the online version of the manual will now state the current supported versions; Fix an error in OWMWeatherController that could cause it to stop updating; Unify the approach to entity filtering on all hub interface classes (controllers); this works for device entities only; it may be extended to other entities later; Improve error detail in messages for EzloController during auth phase; Add isRuleSet() and isRuleEnabled() functions to expressions extensions; Implement set action for lock and passage capabilities (makes them more easily scriptable in some cases); Fix a place in the UI where 24-hour time was not being displayed.

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.

MQTT configuration question

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?

System Configuration Check - time is offset
F
Hi! I get this message when I'm on the status tab: System Configuration Check The time on this system and on the Reactor host are significantly different. This may be due to incorrect system configuration on either or both. Please check the configuration of both systems. The host reports 2025-04-01T15:29:29.252Z; browser reports 2025-04-01T15:29:40.528Z; difference 11.276 seconds. I have MSR installed as a docker on my Home Assistant Blue / Hardkernel ODROID-N2/N2+. MSR version is latest-25082-3c348de6. HA versions are: Core 2025.3.4 Supervisor 2025.03.4 Operating System 15.1 I have restarted HA as well as MSR multiple times. This message didn´t show two weeks ago. Don´t know if it have anything to do with the latest MSR version. Do anyone know what I can try? Thanks in advance!

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 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.

    Anyway, some kinds of sucess the last nights 👍

    All buttons are configured and seems to work so far.

    The final reactor.yaml looks like this (just showing the first two buttons as it is just the entity name and 'property key' that differ )

    event_targets:    # this section starts the event-receiving entities
            "Keyfob_Fyrkant":      # Assign an ID to your entity; each entity must have a unique ID
              name: Lukas Keyfob Fyrkant   # This is optional but recommended, so you have a friendly name
              capabilities: ['button']  # define an array of capabilities to be modified by the event 
              events:  # define an array of events that modify capability attributes on the entity
                - event:  # start of an event; each element of the events array begins this way
                    event_type: zwave_js_value_notification
                    data:  # optional section, if further matching to the event data is required
                      node_id: 15
                      property: "scene" # Square button
                      property_key: "001"
                  response:  # begin the (required) response section for handling the event
                    "button.state":  # an attribute that the event modifies.
                      from: "event.data.value"  # dot-reference expression to pull value from event message
                      map:                    # optional, map to modify value
                        KeyPressed: 'single'   # if value is value_in, it is mapped to new_value
                        KeyPressed2x: 'double'
                        KeyPressed3x: 'tripple'
                        KeyHeldDown: 'hold'
                        KeyReleased: 'release'
                    "button.since":  # an attribute that the event modifies.
                      from: "event.context.id"  # dot-reference expression to pull value from event message
            "Keyfob_Ring":      # Assign an ID to your entity; each entity must have a unique ID
              name: Lukas Keyfob Ring   # This is optional but recommended, so you have a friendly name
              capabilities: ['button']  # define an array of capabilities to be modified by the event 
              events:  # define an array of events that modify capability attributes on the entity
                - event:  # start of an event; each element of the events array begins this way
                    event_type: zwave_js_value_notification
                    data:  # optional section, if further matching to the event data is required
                      node_id: 15
                      property: "scene" # Circle button
                      property_key: "002"
                  response:  # begin the (required) response section for handling the event
                    "button.state":  # an attribute that the event modifies.
                      from: "event.data.value"  # dot-reference expression to pull value from event message
                      map:                    # optional, map to modify value
                        KeyPressed: 'single'   # if value is value_in, it is mapped to new_value
                        KeyPressed2x: 'double'
                        KeyPressed3x: 'triple'
                        KeyHeldDown: 'hold'
                        KeyReleased: 'release'
                    "button.since":  # an attribute that the event modifies.
                      from: "event.context.id"  # dot-reference expression to pull value from event message
    

    A thought that crossed my mind recently, to maybe expand the functions of this little remote in the future.
    Fibaro have built in a possibilty for 6 extra scenes that activates after a sequence of button presses I specify. I have not activated this yet as I don't think I really need it, but what I realised is that it probably quite easy to add a lot of differnt button sequences in MSR as long or short that I want?

    Next part is to get some rules and actions set-up that can use the remote.

      Seems to work like a charm 😁

      Started out with a few rules to let him control a Sonos in his room.
      This one is for starting his favorite playlist, when it not is bedtime and that playlist isn't already playing.

            ||@andr said in Adding remotes, scene controllers as entities to MSR:

            And in that case, I guess that it would work to skip event data and just mapping commands to MSR functions?||

            I'm not sure what you mean by this. I don't think you want to skip anything. You should filter the incoming events, to make sure that you are handling the right events from the right device. So you need to be specific in the event filter to both the event type and the sending device.

            That was just me trying to understand how stuff is related, not something I would try out.
            For example, in my system there is only one device that are sending "Keypressed3x" and that can not be mixed up with anything else. In that case if I had such uniq string to map to MSR command 'triple' I could skip the filtering in event section?

            Again, this is just for my own curiosa trying to learn something new.

            No. You must filter. If you don't, every incoming event then causes the response section to act and will likely cause spurious changes of the entity data.

                You need to copy the lines beginning with event_targets: to the end, and paste them into the config section of the controllers entry for your HassController instance. You should change all instances of XXX to the ZWave node ID of your Hank controller. This will give you buttons 1 and 2. To add buttons 3 and 4, just copy-paste either button 1 or button 2 and modify the button number (property_key), entity name, and entity ID. One Reactor entity is created for each button you configure.

                If you are not well-versed in editing YAML, I suggest you make a backup copy of your config directory before making any changes.

                  I was inspired by the code given in the posts above
                  It works correctly for me.

                    A couple of things:

                    1. The indenting is incorrect. The parser may accept it, for now, but a future upgrade to the parser library may be more strict (I do not write the library, I just include it as a dependency). Use a tool like yamllint to fix it.
                    2. You should not change the values in the map section. The values there are meant to map Hass' values into Reactor's values, and the Reactor-side values you have modified are not valid Reactor values for the button.state attribute. Valid values are defined by Reactor's button capability and include: single, double, triple, 4, 5, hold, release, and long. You should return these to the values originally given, and adjust your condition tests accordingly.

                      You need to copy the lines beginning with event_targets: to the end, and paste them into the config section of the controllers entry for your HassController instance. You should change all instances of XXX to the ZWave node ID of your Hank controller. This will give you buttons 1 and 2. To add buttons 3 and 4, just copy-paste either button 1 or button 2 and modify the button number (property_key), entity name, and entity ID. One Reactor entity is created for each button you configure.

                      If you are not well-versed in editing YAML, I suggest you make a backup copy of your config directory before making any changes.

                      @toggledbits wow, thank you.

                      I've successfully added the Hank devices to the reactor.yaml file, along with a couple other remotes. Here are my notes for anyone else on this endeavor.

                      • Hank HKZW-SCN04 has 4 buttons, and from my tests they do not support 2x or 3x clicks/presses.

                      • Minoston MR40Z V1.0 has 4 buttons, and supports all of the presses that you mapped.

                      • Zooz ZEN34 Ver. 1.0 has 2 buttons and supports all the presses that you mapped PLUS it has 4x and 5x presses as well.

                        Hey friends - I'm trying this again with another remote, this time the ZB-5001 from RGB Genie.

                        It's not working yet, but I feel like I'm close. The device is successfully populating into MSR as an Entity, but when I press a button on the remote it does not report any changes to MSR.

                        Could you help me check my work?

                          "It's not working yet" isn't an adequate description of expectation vs observation, but I can tell right off your map is probably wrong.

                          map:
                            "on": true
                            "off": false
                          

                          The words on and off have special meaning in YAML and must be quoted here. The explicit words true and false for boolean values should be used.

                          Also, your since value should be put through the time() function, because that attribute is a timestamp, not a string.

                          If there are other problems, we'd need more narrative description to help lead us in the right direction.

                          And of course, you've checked the logs for helpful messages, right?

                            @toggledbits Thank you for helping, and that's more than fair.

                            I was pressing a button on the remote while viewing the Entity section of MSR, and the virtual device showed no change (the values stayed at "null"). I was expecting them to report on/off and to report the time change.


                            For others' reference, it is now working with the following code:

                                      capabilities: 
                                        - button
                                      events: 
                                        - event: 
                                            event_type: zha_event
                                            data: 
                                              unique_id: "60:a4:23:ff:fe:65:a3:fb:1:0x0006"
                                          response: 
                                            button.since: 
                                              expr: time()
                                            button.state: 
                                              from: event.data.command
                                              map: 
                                                "on": true
                                                "off": false
                            

                            Same goes for buttons 2-5, just tweak the value of "unique_id". Button 1 it ends with "1:0x0006" and button 2 would end with "2:0x0006", etc.

                            A caveat to this device is the on/off buttons at the very top send the same signal to HA as the "device 1 on/off" buttons (1:0x0006).

                            Here's a link to the device: https://rgbgenie.com/?product=rgbgenie-5-zone-remote-and-dimmer-zigbee
