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.
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 ,
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.
As per @toggledbits request, new topic.

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-
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.

As per @toggledbits request, here's a new topic.
My Fibaro Door Window Sensor 2 (FGDW002) is always reporting as open, even if
x_zwave_values.Notification_Access_Control_Door_state=23 x_zwave_values.Notification_Access_Control_Door_state_simple=23which means that the door is closed. It was working before and I could downgrade to test, if necessary. Thanks.
Hi @toggledbits,
I'm not sure if it's a bug or something, but I have a lot of Fibaro Double Switch (FGS223) as follows.
In the example, it's zwavejs>65-2:
energy_sensor.units="kWh" energy_sensor.value=0.21 power_sensor.units="W" power_sensor.value=0 power_switch.state=false x_debug.dt={"entity_class":"Switch","match":"deviceClass.generic.key=16","capabilities":["power_switch","toggle"],"primary_attribute":"power_switch.state"} x_zwave_values.Binary_Switch_currentValue=false x_zwave_values.Binary_Switch_targetValue=false x_zwave_values.Meter_reset=null x_zwave_values.Meter_value_65537=0.21 x_zwave_values.Meter_value_66049=0 zwave_device.capabilities=[37,50] zwave_device.endpoint=2 zwave_device.failed=null zwave_device.impl_sig="23326:1:22315:1" zwave_device.manufacturer_info=null zwave_device.node_id=65 zwave_device.version_info=nullWhen operating endpoint 2, it's triggered endpoint 1. Endpoint 1 is fine. This is causing a lot of troubles, as you may imagine.
Also, endpoint 0 is not really a switch, and the associated actions are not doing anything at all. Maybe these could be removed. Also, I see battery_maintenance and power_source capabilities, all with null values.

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:
8305eccf-a99e-421f-ad18-1f08da9c8c9c-image.png
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.

I think this feature request could be accomplished with the use of two or more rules, but it would be great if there was a way to wait for an event or trigger to occur before continuing on in the reactions.
For example, I have a rule that will turn on some exterior lights if you arrive home after the porch lights have been turned off. Right now this rule randomly will turn off between 5-10 minutes after the person has entered the geofence. On some occasions this 5-10 minutes isn't long enough, say if you are unloading the car or something. I would like to kick off the reaction, but pause it part way through and wait for the door to close and lock, then continue it on. Hubitat Rule Machine has a "Wait for event" option, but I really want to keep all my logic within MSR.
Hi,
Running the latest version 24212 on docker.
I want to run some appliances when my solar panels deliver over 1200 watts to the net. In this example the dryer. So when the dryer is turned on, the rule starts (SET). There first is a 3 min delay in case the dryer is turned on manually, that is group "Check if auto start is needed". If the dryer is not running, the status is set to waiting, and the shown Repeat Until should wait as long the power delivered is higher than -1200 for at least 120 seconds and the status is still waiting. Higher as the value is negative. For some reason that repeat until "DR Wait for solar high or manual start" looks skipped. Nothing in the logs. What am I missing?
Reactor Automation.png (g_DryerStatus should have been "waiting" and not "running" the moment the log was captured, so that should not be the issue. Unless it takes some time for a variable to actually change?)
Cheers Rene
I have got some warnings i reactor that a rule is throttled because it update rate is over 120/minute, happens now and when with a week or two in between.
The rule monitors my house power consumption when charging my car, and if if consumption risks to kill a main fuse, it stops the charging.
Thought I was clever when I in Constraints added that my car should be located at home and charging is active, but apparantly it wasn't clever enough...
I had understand it that if Constraints isn't true, then the triggers isn't evaluated.
I have a Shelly 3EM meter that measure three channel/phases and updates every second. So just for this three channels it is 180 updates per minute...
And now when I start to take a closer look I can se in my logs that this rule is evaluated with every value change on any of the three phases...
So ~11MB of logs only goes back in time around 16 hours...🙀
So what is the best solution?
Should move my "Constraints" in an new trigger group, before my existing triggers?
Rule as it is now

Hi!
I'm wondering if it's possible now, or if it's something that can be solved in a future version, to be able to remove the entities that no longer exist and are crossed out all at once. Currently, you have to mark them one by one, which takes a lot of time. Is there any way to make this more efficient?
I'm on MSR version 24212-3ce15e25.
Thanks!

I'm slowly migrating all my stuff to MQTT under MSR, so I have a central place to integrate everything (and, in a not-so-distant future, to remove virtual devices from my Vera and leave it running zwave only).
Anyway, here's my reactor-mqtt-contrib package:
![](https://github.com/fluidicon.png)
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 🙂
Good morning,
I'm trying to figure out if there is a way to evaluate if a command was completed and retry if it did not complete.
I have 14 iBlinds 3.1 z-wave controllers in my home. 95% of the time, they work just fine. Occasionally, I'll get a blind that does not open on the first attempt. When I go into Home Assistant, and manually open or close the blind, it works.
I have 3 reactions set up for each room. One to open, one to close, and one partial open for sun glare. Each of them is set up as below.
5afc9924-4300-4718-9e23-8855c4a3a9fd-image.png
The reactions are set up to wait for 5 seconds before going onto the next blind, so the z-wave network doesn't get overwhelmed.
In addition, the set command to run the reactions has "Wait for completion" checked.
3919fc06-c1f1-4c49-bf95-716028d18a27-image.png
I also have a routine set up whenever a z-wave device reports as non-functional (dead), it'll get pinged to wake it up. This usually works to wake them up.

Appreciate any ideas to make this more reliable.

Reactor Build 23338
DEPRECATION WARNING (bare-metal installs only): all nodejs versions earlier than 18 are now end-of-life; these versions will not be supported for Reactor after 1-Mar-2024. You should upgrade nodejs as soon as possible. The minimum supported version is now 18.18, but for longevity, upgrading to the current LTS version is recommended. Users of Reactor running in docker containers are not affected, as the image always embeds a supported LTS version of nodejs (that is, no action is required for docker users).
- Expressions: Update lexpjs to fix degenerate case of
case
with singlewhen
and anelse
(which is better written as anif...then...else
, but shouldn't throw an error in any case). - CallMeBot: the built-in CallMeBot notifier is now deprecated. There are no plans to remove it right now, but it will not receive future updates. Use HTTP Request actions directly in Reactions instead.
- Reduce the frequency of reminder alerts when an upgrade is available.

Reactor Build 24052
BARE-METAL USERS: It is recommended that you update package dependencies when installing all Reactor updates. After unpacking the Reactor archive, remove any existing
package-lock.json
file from your Reactor install directory, and then runnpm i --no-save --no-package-lock --omit dev
to update package dependencies.BREAKING CHANGE: The
valve
capability'sstate
attribute value is now boolean, to match similar system capabilities (was previously/erroneously string). If you are using an entity with thevalve
capability in conditions or actions, make sure the type for the current or target state is boolean now.- Update support for many packages. Please remember to do
npm i --no-save --no-package-lock
(bare-metal installs only; docker containers are always up-to-date). - Add ability to override the state of a rule from the UI, for logic debugging purposes. A disabled rule will have its state forced, but will not run its reactions. An enabled rule will also have its state forced, but the corresponding rule reaction will run on the state transition. When overridden, the trigger and constraint conditions have no effect on the overall rule state, but (if rule enabled) are still evaluated and their status is still accurately displayed on the status card for the rule in the UI.
- PR 0000357: Implement
getRule()
extension function to get rule metadata; refer to the docs for more. - Fix an error in the handling of the entity action cache in the UI (occurred when running actions from the entity detail in the Entities list).
- Docs: improvements to description of custom event handlers for HassController (still a work in progress, but isn't everything?).
- Docs: add a section in VeraController doc for the firmware's
UnsafeLua
flag, required to be on for thex_vera_sys.runlua
action to be available. The value is now also published as an attribute on the system entity. - HassController: Implement new HA

Reminder for Bare-Metal Installs
Friday, March 1 2024 is the last day for Reactor support on nodejs versions earlier than 18. The next build of Reactor releasing after March 1 will not operate on any earlier version. If you haven't upgraded your system to nodejs version 18 or higher, please read the earlier advisory for details and upgrade ASAP.
For the removal of doubt, builds 24052 (most recent build) and prior will continue to run on and after March 1 on earlier nodejs versions; there is not enforced stop on this date. It is only future builds that will refuse to start on out-of-date nodejs versions.
Docker images are always up-to-date and therefore this notice does not apply to them (no action required for docker users).

Reactor build 24057
NOTE (BARE-METAL ONLY): If you are upgrading to this build from a build earlier than 24052, please update your package dependencies. After unpacking the Reactor archive, remove any existing
package-lock.json
file from your Reactor install directory, and then runnpm i --no-save --no-package-lock --omit dev
to update package dependencies.- PR 0000366: Fix an injection caused by the rule state override option added in 24052, which results in constraints on rules being handled incorrectly.

- Entities UI: When a capability filter is selected, the value column header displays a selector allowing the user to display a value in the column other than the primary value for the filtered entities.
- The extensions subdirectory
ext
may now be located underconfig
, which makes its location uniform for bare-metal and docker users; this will eventually become the standard location. It is not necessary at this time to relocate your existingext
directory if you have one — either or both the old and new locations will work for the foreseeable future. - Improve the coordination of the Reactions and Rules displays when open and interacting on multiple displays (e.g. when you delete a reaction on one screen, it should disappear from the other(s)).
- Fix a browser-side performance issue/delay with reconnection to a restarting Reactor service when the Status page is up and displaying the Recently Changed Entities widget. This also improves the memory consumption and performance of the widget generally.
- Increase tolerance for damage to most storage objects, particularly those that only maintain state that can usually be safely rebuilt on the fly. For those that cannot, like rules and expressions, isolate a faulty file and ignore the object with an alert to the user. Preserve the broken file.
- PR 0000367 Localization of the new strings in the rule state override menu and state display have been added.
- PR 0000368 Fix missing localization string for Copy Attributes button in Entities list entity detail card.

- New
wifi_status
system capability for WiFi-connected devices that can report connection status. - PR 0000369 Docs: Add documentation for
ev_charger
system capability. - HassController now supports responses from services that support them; whether required or optional, a response will be requested and stored in
x_hass.last_response
on the target Reactor entity. The data returned is not processed in any way; it is written as-received to the attribute. Tip: if possible, always make the service call from the target entity, not from the system entity. - HassController: Bless Hass to 2024.4.4
MQTTController 24114
NOTE: This version requires Reactor build 24115 or higher
- Add template for Shelly RGBW2 (using Gen1 API) called
shelly_rgbw2_color
(requirestopic
). - Add support for
wifi_status
capability for some devices; more to come. Previously, those devices stored WiFi status info inx_mqtt_device
(extended capability) attributes. Now that a first-class capability is being used, the extended attributes are deprecated and will be removed from a future release. - Templates may now remove an action from an entity if it isn't supported by the device. This is done by specifying the action's value as
false
. If a device cannot support any action of a capability, the entire default list of actions for the capability can be removed by specifying the capability value asfalse
in theactions
section of the template. For an example, see the templateshelly_rgbw2_color
implementation for capabilitylight_effect
actionset_speed
, and the action implementation for thebutton
capability. - Templates may now define custom actions in
x_mqtt_device
. Including anarguments
object in the standard action arguments format allows the template to notify the UI of the arguments required by the action. For an example, see the templateshelly_rgbw2_color
actionx_mqtt_device.set_white
.

- Soft reconfiguration of entities on configuration changes and system upgrades. This should preserve attribute values when the entity needs to be configured due to implementation changes for capabilities.
-
MQTTController 24142
DEPRECATION NOTICE: The
uses_template
entity configuration directive is now deprecated; useinclude
instead (see below). It will remain functional until build 25091 (Q2 2025).- PR 0000370: Events for tasmota_generic_relay in template have hard-coded device ID (left over from test/dev).
- System templates are now broken up to multiple files in a hierarchy within the
templates
distribution subdirectory. - New
include
directive in entity configuration or a template can be used to include the data of another template. You may name a single template (string value), or an array of template names. This permits common behaviors across devices to be modularized in templates. This directive also now replacesuses_template
, which is deprecated (see above notice). - The user custom template directory (
config/mqtt_templates/
) now supports any directory hierarchy the user wishes to maintain within it. It searches for templates in YAML or JSON files in the hierarchy, and will traverse ZIP files as well (so template developers can distribute their products in ZIP archives for easy installation/upgrade).

Reactor build 24152
POTENTIAL BREAKING CHANGE: The port on which Reactor provides HTTP(S) service is now determined by the
baseurl
configuration value first. If no port is given there, the PORT environment variable is then queried; if that's not set, the default port is used (different for HTTP and HTTPS; see below). In previous versions, the PORT environment variable had the highest priority, but this is no longer the case. This will likely have no effect on most users, but if you're having trouble accessing the UI after upgrade, check yourbaseurl
configuration first (if you don't have one or need an example, refer to the distribution version ofreactor.yaml
indist-config
. For users using Reactor via HTTPS (SSL/TLS encryption), I recommend using port 8554 inbaseurl
; regular HTTP (no encryption) remains on port 8111.- User Authentication and Access Control. See the Access Control documentation. This is feature request PR 0000351.
- The default port for HTTPS-enabled Reactor is now 8554 (8111+443). If your system or docker configuration set the PORT environment variable before starting Reactor, whatever port that specifies will be used as before. See the How-To: HTTPS section of the documentation for information about configuring Reactor for HTTPS.
- The port used for HTTP(S) service is now determined by the port specified in
baseurl
(inconfig/reactor.yaml
) first; if no port is specified inbaseurl
, the PORT environment variable is used if set, and finally the Reactor default of 8111 (or 8554 if TLS is enabled). - If HTTPS (HTTP + SSL/TLS) is enabled and its configured port is other than 8111 (the standard HTTP (non-SSL/TLS) port for Reactor), an HTTP service on port 8111 will now be created to redirect requests from HTTP to HTTPS (no unencrypted service is provided other than redirection). This feature can be disabled by configuring
redirect_http
tofalse
in thereactor
section ofconfig/reactor.yaml
. - The
allow_ips
in thereactor
section ofconfig/reactor.yaml
now allows CIDR address range specification (e.g.10/8
or192.168.0/24
) for ranges of addresses. - Updated the documentation theme and its supporting plugins; improved the appearance of code snippets with syntax highlighting in most cases; add line highlighting in many code snippets to draw attention to certain elements or changes.
- Dashboard: added new Thermostat type (supported by
Level.updown
layout) for capabilitieshvac_heating_unit/hvac_cooling_unit
. Evolving; further improvements coming. - VirtualEntityController: Support for time-series data collection and aggregation. See the docs).
- VirtualEntityController: Preserve attribute values if possible across system updates that affect capability definitions or implementations.
- DynamicGroupController: It is now possible to set the primary attribute of a dynamic group, and determine its value dynamically. Trivial example: add the
binary_sensor.state
attribute to a group to show true when any light in the group is on. Refer to the docs for DynamicGroupController. - The
dist-config
directory is now copied to the user data virtual path target when running in docker containers so that its contents are more easily accessible to docker users (no need todocker exec
into the running container). - Rules: the logging level for most rule evaluation messages has been reduced to
DEBUG0
(numeric level 5); rules will now log only startup/shutdown and rule state changes atINFO
level. Per-object logging configuration can be used to enable more detailed logging for a specific rule when required. - Fixed an issue in the core related to deleting certain objects (a Global Reaction was reported, but could have been many object types).
- Fixed an issue with local service of docs that caused a cross-site scripting error on some browsers (this is the "Initializing search..." bug).
- Developer Tools: the
util
functiondeepCompare()
now works with JavaScriptSet
,Map
,Buffer
, andRegExp
objects. - Developer Tools: documented
util
functionhash()
(it's been around a while, just not documented). - HassController: Bless Hass to 2024.5.5

BREAKING CHANGE: Home Assistant versions prior to 2023.6 are no longer supported. Going forward, you may expect HassController to support Home Assistant releases made in the last 12 months. Older releases may continue to work, but will rececive a warning at startup, and may cause errors (that I will not troubleshoot or fix/work around). Special workarounds for pecularities of releases older than 24 months will be removed from the code (meaning versions of Home Assistant older than that will almost certainly have issues).

POTENTIAL BREAKING CHANGE: The conditions in a Reaction's repeat...while group are meant to be Constraints, not Triggers -- they are stateless, meaning that they are evaluated each time they are run, not when an underlying condition triggers them (such as a timer expiring on a sustained for option). This was always meant to be the case, but an error in the UI implementation permitted certain condition options applicable only to trigger conditions. This is now fixed, and any constraints containing condition options will have those options removed during later editing, and the options will not function (they haven't been working correctly anyway) until that time.
- Shell Command action now supports expression substitution. This makes an already dangerous (security-wise) action even moreso, so it must be enabled explicitly by setting
allow_shell_action_substitution: true
in theengine

ZWaveJSController 22242
BREAKING CHANGE WARNING: The entity IDs of certain child entities may change to reflect a more deterministic naming style. Entities principally effected would be those created in 2022 and earlier for scene activation. Rules that use these entities will need to be updated.
- Handle notification special events (in Notification CC 113 type 6) for locks for better performance of
keypad
capability attributes (where the device and Z-Wave JS support it). - Update Fibaro FGR222/FGRM222 handling for manufacturer proprietary venetian blind position and tilt
- Creation of child entities is expanded to include all command classes that result in capability/attribute collisions on an entity. That is, if two or more values (from Z-Wave JS) on an endpoint resolve to the same Reactor capability, a new child entity is created.
- Shell Command action now supports expression substitution. This makes an already dangerous (security-wise) action even moreso, so it must be enabled explicitly by setting
