Good morning,
I have a service MQTT service that needs a restart occasionally. The add-on (Smartbed MQTT) is for the smart bed base for my bed. It has a "safety light" that I can control from HAAS & MSR as a light entity, and also moves the head of the bed to a preset at bedtime, and then lies it back flat in the morning The problem is, from time to time, the light becomes "unavailable" Restarting from the Add-ons tab in HAAS always fixes it, but I should be able to detect when it happens when "light.tempur_pedic_safety_lights" is not true or false, i.e., unavailable.
What I don't know how to do is how to restart that service. Does anybody have experience in restarting add-ons from MSR?

RPi5-64 (8GB) Core 2024.7.3 Supervisor 2024.08.0 Operating System 13.0 Frontend 20240710.0Hi!
Is it possible to generate two additional log files, the first being the replica of what is displayed on screen by the Rule History widgets and the other with Recently Changed Entities?
And could I configure the generation of one file per day, and delete the older ones? For example, store the last 5 days?
And being more ambitious, does Windget have an icon to open these TXT files in the navigated?
Well, we're approaching Christmas, so here's my request to Santa Claus @toggledbits 🙂
Hi @toggledbits
I'm working on a controller to generate llm response from a prompt in reactor. I have http response coming thru an http request action at the moment, capturing the response inside a local variable. So, it's practically sync.
I want to create a controller, so I don't have to rely on a proxy (and have a simpler architecture), and duplicate absurd http actions, but AFAIK in the current implementation, actions are async only. But if I have multiple requests going on, I cannot be sure what it's really inside an attribute. I also thought that something like a correlation id when sending the request could be used to identity multiple responses, but I wanted to double check with you before starting with something too complicated. I also noticed that some actions in home assistant (ie forecast) are sync and I'm wondering if you have any plan or hint to address this situation. Thanks.
Thanks.
@togglebits I am curious as to why the tilt_sensor.state (primary) = NULL. I believe it should show true or false. I have to use binary_sensor.state instead in my rules.
Again, not sure if this is related to Reactor/ZwaveJSController implementation or the actual Z-Wave JS UI docker version. I have copied, below, the attributes of the tilt sensor in hopes it can help.
Thanks in advance.

@toggledbits I have noticed after upgrading both Reactor and ZWaveJSController to version 24257 that two of my devices/entities, TILT-ZWAVE2.5-ECO and Zooz ZSE18, had their entity re-named in an unusual way and also appears to be duplicated.

Anyway, here's my reactor-mqtt-contrib package:
Contrib MQTT templates for Reactor. Contribute to dbochicchio/reactor-mqtt-contrib development by creating an account on GitHub.
Simply download yaml files (everything or just the ones you need) and you're good to go.
I have mapped my most useful devices, but I'll add others soon. Feel free to ask for specific templates, since I've worked a lot in the last weeks to understand and operate them.
The templates are supporting both init and query, so you have always up-to-date devices at startup, and the ability to poll them. Online status is supported as well, so you can get disconnected devices with a simple expression.
Many-many thanks to @toggledbits for its dedication, support, and patience with me and my requests 🙂
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.Hi @toggledbits.
After a couple of weeks, I noticed that my Remotec zrc90 isn't working as expected.
Scenes are working in ZWaveJS, but this device has a strange behavior: the scene change, but then it's set again to null. In Reactor, this remains null:

Hi, @toggledbits!
I have a question about the execution behavior. See the code below, and I'll explain the situation.
12957c3e-ff06-46c9-929d-b53f936665df-image.png
This is a routine that, at a certain point, determines that the desktop on which the VM hosting the Reactor is located receives an instruction to perform a shutdown (Shell Command).
When this happens, the desktop is turned off, and then Hubitat detects by a "ping" that the VM has been down, waits 15 seconds, turns off the power to this desktop, and then 15 seconds later turns on the desktop with the Reactor VM again.
After restarting the desktop, the VM is loaded, and the Reactor is triggered. Still, the following problem occurs: I expected that when the rule was continued to be executed again, the next step would be executed, that of the 900-second delay after shutdown, but the Shell command is executed again, and then it goes into a loop, the rule does not advance.
To break the loop, I first have to make the VM not load, change the desktop password, and then start the VM. In this case, Reactor generates an error when trying to execute the Shell Command because of the invalid password and then finishes the routine following the 900 delay step.
b58b0d4a-d6c1-4fe3-bab7-4222acea9607-image.png
Is my interpretation that when it returns, the routine should continue to the next step that has not yet been executed incorrectly? Or does Reactor, through the shutdown command, interpret that it hasn't finished this step and keep trying, which is the correct reaction?
Thanks for clarifying.
Hi @toggledbits ,
I'm slowly moving my ZWave network from Vera to ZWaveJS. I successfully cloned my ZWave network using a spare Vera Edge (a new post for the community later when I'll be fully back from vacation) and I'm testing a couple of things before moving everything to ZWaveJS.
In the meanwhile, I have a couple of venetian blinds connected to Fibaro Roller Shutters 2 (FGR222) and I'm using some proprietary ZWave commands to control the tilt position, that right now I'm sending via Vera (with some code from the old place, messing with this):
af7f883c-f49e-419c-a2fe-8669572e3792-image.png
The ZWaveJS values are reported via this:
x_zwave_values.Manufacturer_Proprietary_fibaro_venetianBlindsPosition=0 x_zwave_values.Manufacturer_Proprietary_fibaro_venetianBlindsTilt=0I hope there's a way to expose a separate device to control the tilt position directly, without doing the mess I'm doing now. Let me know if you need some files. Thanks.

Hi-
I have an android media player entity publishing from HA. I watch for changes in transport state and media title to trigger some actions.
Though those attributes report as expected, the set rule is being throttled for possible flapping.
There is an attribute for media position that continually updates, I suspect it is causing the evaluations to run constantly.
The workaround I am seeking is to ignore those attributes in HA or MSR. Anyone know how, or have a better idea??
Thx
Btw- this problem has spanned versions of HA and reactor, but I am current on both. Too current on HA for transparency, but the issue has survived several updates.
Referencing an expression inside a reaction is in the form of ${{ expression }}. When referenced inside my shell command to set the watering delay duration for my Rachio sprinkler system, it just does not work.
If I enter "86400" instead of referencing the expression lWateringDelayDuration, it works. Either I am doing something wrong or referencing an expression inside a shell command is not supported.

Good morning,
I'm having an issue with controlling my Zooz Zen14 outdoor double outlet. I should be able to control each outlet individually, and this does work when use Home Assistant (haas) from Reactor.
When I use zwavejs, I see 3 entries:

The first entry is for the overall device. I can turn both outlets on and off (in theory) by setting the power_switch state to on or off. This does turn them on and off when using zwavejs.
When I go to the individual outlets, performing the power_switch.on or power_switch.off actions turns them all (main, 1 and 2) on or off, and not just the individual outlets. When I perform the same action from haas, turning on outlet 1 will turn on the main switch and 1, but not 2.
I reviewed the logs for that node and I'm not seeing anything obvious.

@toggledbits was looking thru rule sets and updating which (new) lights I wanted REMII to impact and saw that this...
...is showing as
(missing)
in the ruleDeactivated
and looking in the dropdown of Variables it appears I cannot select that local expression (only Global) as I did when originally building this out back in 2021.In looking at the rule
Active Period
I'm seeing:
which appears to be pointing to setting a variable in a rule?It's admittedly been a couple years since this was built and it's def not fresh in my memory.
-
You didn't show the local expressions?
-
@toggledbits I guess that's the problem: there are only Global expressions selectable. Looking thru the rules:
-
Back in mid-2021 there were a bunch of changes to variable evaluation and the rules around that, and among them, a rule cannot set or examine a local variable in another rule. I suspect you're just noticing the effect of that here. The engine still runs those rules, but you cannot edit them and leave them in that condition. The shared variable needs to be moved to global scope.
-
@toggledbits I suspected that might be the case (something changed). Of course, I've poked at the
Deactivated
rule this morning so I've probably broken things now.I'm guessing I need to convert any Local expression "sets" to Global to fix this?

Not all, just the ones that referred to from other rules.

Working on migrating off of Vera. I am also trying to use Reactor Ex Machina and wonder whether the changes you referenced above might also keep REM from shutting down properly. REM toggles the lights off and on up until the expiration of the active period. REM ends without turning all of the lights off. The construct I am wondering about is - {{ each light in REM_Lights: performAction( light, 'power_switch.off' , { } 0 }}
I assume this is supposed to turn all of the lights in the array. I modified the "code" to handle the local/global variable change by moving cycler_stim to Global , but otherwise my REM is as it was after you modified "Deactivate REM' back on May 28, 2021. Any ideas?https://smarthome.community/topic/557/solved-random-ghosting-of-lights-when-away/32?_=1677904265383

Except for the values defining the active time in "Active Period", our scripts are identical. Additionally we are both controlling Hubitat systems. My testing seems to indicate that REM only shuts off one light at the end of the defined period. I believe it was the last one turned on. Are you sure that REM turns off all of your lights at the end of the defined period? I suspect there may be something wrong with the execution of the statement {{ each light in REM_Lights: performAction( light, 'power_switch.off' , { } ) : 0 }} as I noted above. Another "anomaly" occurs at start-up. The 3 scripts together are sensitive to the start sequence. If "Cycler" is started before both "Active Period" and "Deactivated", "Cycler" will trigger as soon as either starts since they both change cycler_stim.

The expression you show is incorrect -- where you have a colon (
:
) at the end of theeach
subexpression (after the closing paren ofperformAction()
) should be a semicolon (;
), like this:${{ each light in REM_lights: performAction( light, 'power_switch.off', {} ); 0 }}

@toggledbits Not gonna lie, you made me go squint at mine just to be sure.

If anyone is interested, I will copy/paste my code here for my solution. It builds on the initial "Reactor Ex Machina" from 2021 but incorporates the changes made to MSR since then. I also modified it in such a way to have the OFF switching done individually for each light with definable delays. A bathroom light that way can go OFF after a random 1-5m while the kitchen stays on for longer for example. I made some other changes as well to suit my needs. It works for me, it might not for you.
You need four "Global Expressions":
- REM_lights
#list of all DeusExMachina (now ReactorExMachina REM) lights to control #this is an array [ ] #every entity in ' ' (apostrophes) separated by , (comma) in new line #check entity list to get canonical ID to be used #comments start with hash and are ignored [ 'hass>input_boolean_testlight', #Test 'hass>input_boolean_testlight2', #test2 'hass>input_boolean_testlight3', #Stephan 'hass>input_boolean_testlight4', #Stephan 'hass>input_boolean_testlight5', #Stephan 'hass>input_boolean_testlight5', #Stephan 'hass>input_boolean_testlight5' #Stephan ]
-
REM_dummy (leave empty)
-
REM_cycler_stimulus (leave empty)
-
REM_status (leave empty)
If you want a light to be more frequently "ghosted" add it multiple times into the list. In my case light5. If you are on HA, you can add via the helper section some virtual toggles as I did to test your setup. Probably also possible on other platforms.
Start & Stop rule (via set/reset reaction), the ghost switching on the lights and then for each light a ghost which switches off so I can manage the individual behavior per light.
The reset code bit, hard to read/copy from screenshot:
${{ each light in REM_lights: performAction( light, 'power_switch.off', {} ); 0 }}
The ghost for switching ON a random element/light from the list:
Code:
${{ performAction( REM_lights[ floor( random() * len( REM_lights ) ) ], 'toggle.toggle', {} ) }}
${{ random()*600 + 600 }}
${{ REM_cycler_stimulus + 1 }}
${{ random()*600 + 300 }}
Some explanation for random function and the values used with it. It randomly generates number between 0 and 1 (example: 0.4739302) The delay time is in seconds. So the above example will create a delay of 300s minimum plus anything between 0 to 10m, effectively a random time of 5m-15m. See what works for you.
This REM is working well for me and I am now finally ready to migrate it all to HA after many years on my trusty Vera Lite which is about to die of flash memory degradation.

Ahh... I miss that app. Probably one of my favorites from my Vera days. The "Lighting Director" app on Hubitat just isn't the same.
Thanks for posting your setup @kellyjelly32. I've mocked this into my MSR and if all works well, DeusExMachina returns. Well kinda
-
@kellyjelly32 Is there a way to specify how many lights should be on at one time? I tested REM last night and the most on at the same time appeared to be two. I'm fine with this, but curious if there was an option or way to adjust it. Again, thanks for sharing your logic.
-
My REM "Switch ON Ghost" is using the "toggle" action. This means it can also switch a light off if the one chosen randomly is (still) on. Change that to power_switch.on and it can only switch lights ON. This will at least prevent the "ON Ghost" from turning/toggling lights OFF. Then it all comes down the the times used to in the random() functions between the "ON Ghost" toggles/switches lights ON and the "OFF Ghosts" switching lights OFF.
Probably the introduction of another variable like REM_active_lights which is increased every time the "ON Ghost" switches something ON and decreased when the "OFF Ghost xyz" turns it off, you can track how many lights are ON. Add a AND trigger in the "On Ghost" that states "REM_Active_lights" equal/smaller than "4" and you can make sure that no more than four lights will be on at any time.
Probably you need to somehow force the MSR to re-evaluate the "Ghost ON" conditions to start another cycle, once enough lights are out again. Maybe another "Ghost" to keep track of the REM_Active_lights, when below 4 to count the REM_cycler_stimulus up to re-start the ON Ghost.I will see if I can get it to work...
-
I'm not in need of it. As I was moving off Lighting Director I just happened to notice they had a max number of lights. I think the OG DeusExMachina did too. I think how you have it would be more lifelike. Especially when you couple of a few specific OFF rules so the lights turn off faster than 10-20 minutes.
