@toggledbits Since I have upgraded ZWaveJSController to 24293 from 24257 I am seeing entries related to registering action set_volume, but action is not defined by the capability 143 every time I restart Reactor.
The Siren seems to be doing what it is supposed to do. The volume levels are fine. Should I worry about it?
Reactor version 24302
ZWaveJSController version 24293
Z-Wave JS UI version 9.27.4

This has been working flawlessly each year incl this year until... Tonight... nada.
Is this due to the holiday being late this year ie because today is the 22nd, not after the 22nd?
I've managed to use MSR UI on iOS devices to some degree*, so that although UI elements (e.g. rule sets) are not visible in portrait mode, you've seen them in landscape. Now with recents builds (24302) this does not work anymore, elements (rule sets, entities) are not anymore visible in landscape mode.
Does anyone have similar experiences? Using iOS 18 and Safari/Chrome browser.
( *Drag & drop of rule conditions have never worked on a mobile)
Hi @toggledbits,
I have lots of logs with this:
<Engine:ERR> Assignment to alarm ignored -- expression-driven global cannot be set by assignmentAny hints to where look at to avoid this? Thanks.
Hi @toggledbits
I'd like to update my controllers with these new features, but I'm struggling to find any guidance in the docs - and in general to understand the context.
Could you please elaborate more? Thanks.
I have the following ACL defined:
groups: admin: users: - admin applications: true api_acls: # This ACL allows users in the "admin" group to access the API - url: "/api" group: admin allow: true log: true # This ACL allows anyone/thing to access the /api/v1/alive API endpoint - url: "/api/v1/alive" allow: trueAnd I have authenticated to MSR as "admin" user. However, I'm getting "access denied" when trying to access http://*******:8111/api/v1/log
So what I'm missing, is my ACL incorrectly defined?
Using build 24302 on Docker.
Thanks to @toggledbits for adding a custom CSS. I've started doing a darker Reactor style.
Here's the file: https://gist.github.com/dbochicchio/825098ac13b7f8cac22012eae37ff7ce
A couple of things are still too bright and I'll eventually catch-up. Just place it under your /config directory, naming the file as customstyles.css. Hard refresh your browser.
Hi!
In Home Assistant I sometimes uses the TTS, either to my Sonos or Google speakers. With reactor in Vera I also use TTS.
But in MSR I can't select the TTS-service. It's simply not there. Am I missing something, or is this the case, so far?
Thanks!

Hi
I have just connected a bunch of EzloPi controllers to MSR to import some ESP based devices etc.
They all seemed to have worked and imported in to MSR apart from I have one missing device. It is a Digital Gas Sensor device.
This is how that device looks in the Ezlo API.
Devices Info:

They have an EzloPi website here you can create your own sensor projects using ESP boards, which is very interesting stuff!
And I just wrote on the Ezlo forum here, how to connect an EzloPi controller to MSR.
THANKS.
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.A couple of things for you @toggledbits, since you mentioned that this release has new features and some tweaks are expected.
Local expressions cannot be deleted. Pushing the X button has no effect for me.
When cloning an entity action, the result is strange (first is cloned one, second is the original action):
a92ea094-9e2c-4aaa-bf47-2d07a6ffdbd0-image.png
When changing the action on the cloned element, the params are added to the original one. See screenshot:
92ac3011-83c8-466b-bd23-47d483ad7a52-image.png
Dark theme has a couple of strange contrasts. One is visible in the previous screenshots (white text on yellow background). Another one is in groups (blue text on blue background):
9b3c4988-53ef-44e6-9672-30e744cacb75-image.png
Overall, I found blue, yellow, red and green (in buttons and forms) to be too bright.
On the bright side:
I love the new script action: thank you! The dark theme is a great start to avoid getting blinded at night I promise I'll try very soon the new features around actions. Thanks!@toggledbits
I just upgraded to version MSR 24293, bare metal running on Fedora. Upon restart, I am getting a error banner:
I followed the new directions about npm
npm i --no-save --no-package-lock --omit dev
Any idea what the issue is?
Seems like switching the UI to the newly added dark mode (thank you for this) does nothing. The UI stays in light mode and only a few buttons turn into dark mode (see screenshot)
Things I have tried:
Hard refresh
Different browser
Different computer

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?
Running:

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.

[MSR] reactor-mqtt-contrib package for additional MQTT templates

@toggledbits @CatmanV2 Unless I'm just not far enough thru coffee this morning, this is what I see in MSR's mqtt logs and it looks like it's data from my iPhone8 (which I fired up via wifi to use as a test phone.)
2022-12-12T14:02:02.896Z "owntracks/msrmqtt/iphone8" {"_type":"location","acc":35,"alt":10,"batt":100,"bs":1,"conn":"o","inregions":["Home"],"inrids":["adf34c"],"lat":32.94714,"lon":-80.013836,"m":1,"p":101.826,"t":"u","tid":"i8","tst":1670853720,"vac":15} 2022-12-12T14:02:02.998Z "owntracks/msrmqtt/iphone8" {"_type":"location","acc":10,"alt":10,"batt":100,"bs":1,"conn":"o","inregions":["Home"],"inrids":["adf34c"],"lat":32.946934,"lon":-80.013887,"m":1,"p":101.827,"tid":"i8","tst":1670853722,"vac":8,"vel":0}
So why isn't this showing here:
My entity config is:
owntracks_iphone8: #entity ID - must be unique name: "iPhone8 location" # friendly name prefix: "iphone8" topic: "test_iphone" uses_template: owntracks_sensor homeRegionName: "Home"
I feel like I'm just "this close" and I just don't have something aligned properly.
-
Yes, your configuration of
prefix
andtopic
don't make a string that matches what is being received. Based on what it is coming in and how those fields template configuration are used,prefix
should bemsrmqtt
andtopic
should be justiphone8
.Conspicuous give-away: your
test_iphone
value doesn't appear in the topic or payload of what you're receiving.@therealdb this may need a bit more documentation, since the relevance of
prefix
andtopic
aren't immediately clear (at least, not to me) without looking at the template itself and seeing how they are used, and likely the phone configuration as well (i.e. describe how configuration fields on the phone may appear in the final event topic). -
I believe @toggledbits has it (unsurprisingly)

@toggledbits I was just updating
prefix
when your response came in. Here's where I am now:entities: owntracks_iphone8: #entity ID - must be unique name: "iPhone8 location" # friendly name prefix: "msrmqtt" topic: "iphone8" uses_template: "owntracks_sensor" homeRegionName: "Home"
My template is in reactor/config/mqtt_templates which is where @therealdb directs. Do I need to modify the
uses_template:
? -
@gwp1 Are you getting an error that the template
owntracks_sensor
doesn't exist? -
@toggledbits I am not receiving any errors.
Just not seeing anything populate the entity.
Is it something to do with the entity name by any random chance?
-
@gwp1 said in [MSR] reactor-mqtt-contrib package for additional MQTT templates:
@toggledbits I am not receiving any errors.
Then there's nothing wrong with
uses_template
.I'll make the same comment/question to you that I made to @CatmanV2 earlier in this same thread: you're on the latest MQTTController, right?
-
@toggledbits MQTTController-22326 (double-checked the
CHANGELOG.md
)EDIT: ...which I now see is a version behind. You snuck one in on me. Updating to MQTTController-22340.
-
@toggledbits @therealdb @CatmanV2 Thank you all for your help here, this is a big step in my system. Really appreciate it!
-
@therealdb what are your updates set to on the iPhone app? The data is going to be useful, but on 'Significant' I appear to be only getting updates on
string
andregion
which makes sense.
I'm assuming thatbattery_power.level
won't update more frequently unless the app is configured to 'Move'Has anyone done that? Does it kill the iPhone battery?
Cheers
C
-
@catmanv2
move
translates to any movement your phone is making - increases accuracy but kills battery life.significant
is defined by OwnTracks as "traveling a distance of at least 500 meters in 5 minutes" which lets the app nap and is much easier on the battery.Driving Flag
is a virtual switch I created based on distance from Home. I believe I currently have it set to .1 mile so it trips as soon as I pull out of the neighborhood. I use it as a safety to the GPS reporting for when I'm not home. I have a second one calledDriving Flag - Far Away
that kicks in at two miles. This is for use when I'm obviously not just puttering about the neighborhood but going to be gone while. Can be used to trigger HVAC, etc. -

Maybe, when you’ll build an UI, we could provide descriptive text for parameters.

Version 22350 released.
What's new:- shelly_button1: for Shelly Button 1 (battery powered button) - all the button modes (short, long, double, triple) are supported.
- fullykiosk: to handle messages coming from FullyKiosk. You'll have battery and charging status, screen brightness and current app.
What's fixed:
- query for all shelly template
- owntracks: trying to better handle null values/spurious messages.
How to update: just replace the files and restart Reactor.

@therealdb I grabbed the latest
owntracks_sensor
and dropped it on top of the existing.

@gwp1 said in [MSR] reactor-mqtt-contrib package for additional MQTT templates:
Bad download, perhaps?
Maybe. I'll start packing them in zip files very soon, since MQTTController has the ability to get them from a compressed zip file. I'll do a proper release and things should be easier going on.

@therealdb Many thanks to you and @toggledbits for the combined efforts on this specific app.
I've convinced a friend to join us here in the world of MSR. I'd originally written up a
reactor.yaml
that included his Hubitat and VeraSecure controllers so he could just drop it in and go. I updated that file with multiple entities for each member of his family, had him install MQTTController, and drop the updated version of the config file into his MSR.Created an accompanying install doc for the iOS app customized to their setup and it's working brilliantly. His phone is connected to my HiveMQ cluster which connects his household and mine together so we can do shared presence automations across homes.
Love this stuff!
EDIT: took it a step further and offloaded my OwnTracks config file, edited a couple details (UserID, etc) and sent it to all members of his family. He added it to OwnTracks and everyone is identical in setup as far as Regions goes and everything is working smashingly.
STILL love this stuff
