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.

Logon screen timeout

Noticing since 170 that the lock screen doesn't switch to the logon prompt but, rather, stays on the active UI until such time as you go to click something within it. Then it jumps to the login screen. Brave browser Brave 1.92.139 (Official Build) (arm64) Chromium: 150.0.7871.114

[MSR] Copy&past of actions and/or drag&drop between set/reset
therealdbT
Hey @toggledbits One thing that bothers me while doing work on new systems/new features, is that I cannot copy&paste actions, and I cannot drag&drop between set and resets. #1 is for when I want to copy an action between different rules opened in two separate browser windows, while #2 is when I just need to flip a bunch of actions in the reset, or move some logic back and forth. Both will be appreciated, but I understand the technical challenges. Thanks!

Upgrade advice - upgrade from aarch64 to ARM64 image
T
I'm currently on version 26011. I understand that the aarch64 image is no longer supported. So, I therefore need to update to the ARM64 image. Can anyone possibly suggest how I update my docker compose.yaml file (see below). Ideally I'd like to keep my existing reactions etc. rather than start from scratch. # Multi-System Reactor template docker-compose.yml (version 22160) # # Change the lines indicated by "DO"... # services: reactor: container_name: reactor environment: # DO change the TZ: line to set your local time zone. # See valid TZ list: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_tz_database_time_zones TZ: GB # # DO NOT change this path. Your directory location is in "source" below.

Deprecation Announcement: 32-bit ARM *docker* images
toggledbitsT
If you are using the armv7l docker image, the OpenJS Foundation that publishes node is no longer producing 32-bit builds as of v24. That means the last supported LTS version of node for armv7l is v22, which will go End-of-Life in May 2027. Therefore, the Reactor armv7l image is now deprecated and will only be produced until node v22 goes EOL, and I will not publish armv7l images beyond that date. If you are running an RPi 3 or earlier with Reactor, you are on this image, and will need to upgrade hardware to a 64-bit model and use the arm64 image. If you need help getting it done, ask in this category.

http request action & digest auth
tunnusT
I’m using the HTTP Request action in MSR and need to authenticate against an endpoint that uses HTTP Digest authentication. Now that endpoint was changed to use SHA-256 in digest auth, so I would like to know if MSR supports it, or is it limited to MD5-based digest auth?

    Definitely a vote for MQTT here though it does require setup on both MSR and the "children" controllers, it reduces the I/O traffic dramatically compared to the polling approaches. In my personal case, since I am a bit bored like @therealdb, and don't have much to add or improve to my home automation, my interest is on improving efficiencies. I find satisfaction even when decreasing CPU utilization by decimal points.

    Since we’re at it, I think the mqtt gateway should support announcements, lwt and so on.

    This will make very easy to integrate things like Shelly, tasmota, and so on.

          Got my instance going with Home Assistant. I am finding it brilliant as it is connecting to it through websocket. I am seeing the potential now to have reactor act as a bridge, detecting events happening on Home Assistant and forwarding them to openLuup and vice versa, eliminating the need for configuring additional scenes on openLuup and automation on home assistant!

            I'm getting ready to assemble today's build (21051). I think I have everything urgent covered, with some PRs left open for confirmation. There's one more I want to try to address before I roll it up and out for the day.

            This build also includes:

            • Fix for condition trigger repeating when a sustained-for delay applies (#30);
            • Fix an error on import (#29);
            • Fix an error on Hass caused by an unhandled attribute (#27);
            • New units configuration value "uk" (#31), as well as more granular control over units (if imperial, metric, or uk isn't enough, you can now set units by use class; per device/attribute is planned and part of the architecture as well);
            • Fix elevation computation problem in sunrise/set data (mangles angles if elev configured <> 0) (#34);
            • Now with working SMTP, Prowl, Pushover and Syslog notifications;
            • Notification forwarding for Hubitat (see docs for configuration details);
            • many documentation fixes and upgrades.

                Updated and now added openLuup. Doesn't seem to be a problem but why do openLuup scenes and room entities keep flashing green even without seemingly any updates?

                  I will look into that!


                  Edit: It looks like the jobs object is dropped on Vera Luup when it's empty, but is always present on openLuup. Since the comparison to see if a value changes doesn't "go deep" on objects and arrays, it sees two empty objects as different every time they are presented (using JS's comparison operator), and the scene is being presented on each update even though outwardly there don't appear to be any changes. So two small diffs between Vera Luup and openLuup contributing.

                  I'm just going to suppress anything that isn't a primitive and leave it at that. Deep inspection of objects and arrays isn't likely to be valuable or necessary.

                      For being a "Developer preview" it is quite solid. After some minor issues yesterday and have been solved with 21051, I have re-built most of my Reactor-sensors in Vera in the MSR and it is working fine. They are now disabled in the Vera and let's see how it goes in the coming days 🙂

                        Hi! I have really looking forward to this, MSR is the sole reason I have been trying to wrap my head around Home Assistant.

                        For now I am running Hassio on a VM at my Win10 "home server"
                        If I read the information right, I can't run MSR on Windows at the moment?

                            OK, people, here we go! At long last, Multi-System Reactor developer preview is available!

                            The package can be downloaded from the Reactor bug tracker, a MantisBT system (at https://reactor.toggledbits.com/mantisbt/). There is a download button in the left margin, as well as links to the documentation, which you will need for installation.

                            UPDATE 2021-02-24 -- To keep spammers off, I've locked down registration on the Bug Tracker. To get access to the Bug Tracker and preview downloads, please PM me (not reply here) your full name and email address and I will set up an account for you.

                            This version of MSR will run on Linux systems, including RPi's under Raspios Buster, running node.js version 12.10 or higher (v14.15.1). For RPi users, there is an installation script that will install a local copy of node.js (for the logged-in user).

                            Bugs reports will be handled through the bug tracker only. Discussion and questions in this forum are fine, though (if that leads to a bug report, we'll transition).

                            This version supports Vera (and openLuup to the degree it's compatible with Vera Luup), Hubitat, and Home Assistant. Some of the device support on the H platforms is still a bit basic, but it is largely controlled by configuration and progress can be made quickly.

                            The documentation beyond installation is a mess. Of course, I started with the existing documentation and have been massaging into MSR's particulars, but it still has a long way to go on the detail.

                            I know I don't have to say this, but I will anyway... let me know how it goes!

                              Is it possible to get thermostat (climate) mappings for HassController?

                                  Pi4 (2GB RAM) arrived today. can't wait to join in the action.
                                  Some advice please from the knowledgeable ones if I can.
                                  I had intended to use a SATA HD instead of the SD Card, perhaps this isn't necessary and may be an overkill?
                                  What does the collective think?

                                    No it’s not overkill. If you look at the HA forum, you will see legions of people migrating away from the rPI to intel NUC because of the SD card issue. These are very cheap, controller less (therefore cache less, garbage collection less, wear leveling less) NAND flash which have a relatively short lifetime (similar to what Ezio embedded in their updated/downgraded version of the vera). The rPi4 is a bit tricky to boot from SATA but it can be done and if you want a reliable system, you should definitely go down that route.

                                    A big part of it of course will depend on how much storage writing you will be doing but regardless, mid-long term it’s a bit of a waste. The SSD cards are really designed for digital cameras where pictures are taken until the card is full, transferred and then erased again on a low frequency basis. They are not very good for computing storage use.

                                      In fact its a good idea, those sd cards can fail all to easily, with all the reading and writing.

                                        I'm on my second NUC. The first one was a Celeron, now on an i3 I found getting dust in our offices (it was used as front desk PC before the pandemic). This to say that probably eBay is your friend, and Amazon too. You could find a lot of deals (well under 100 USD/EUR) for used/reconditioned NUCs.

                                        Mine with i3, 16GB ram (I added more) and 256 GB SSD is heavily used (openLuup, my own software, cams processing, mqtt server, a lot of mqtt clients, bluetooth for MiFlora and SwitchBot) and barely consuming more than 5% CPU.

                                          They're good little boxes, although I wish they were a bit cheaper. My Hass runs on a NUC, and I also use a NUC as my on-LAN secondary DNS/NTP and a few other things (like Unifi management). I'm a big fan of the Jetson Nano, too. I think this board needs more attention.
