full devices reset

[DesT]

@akbooer

Since a couple of weeks/months, we are in the process to redo 5 rooms @ home (kids are moving from room to another room) and of course, I would need to redo a bunch of device name and room name in Zway..

Is there an easy way to tell openLuup to completely start over fresh without having to delete/rename them one by one in openLuup ?

[akbooer]

Would it be acceptable to just delete the ZWay plug-in and start again?

…or am I misunderstanding the problem?

[DesT]

Ohhhh yeah... good idea.. so just by deleting the zway plugin, all devices will be removed ?

[akbooer]

Oh yes. No parent device, then no children!

[DesT]

@akbooer Didn't had a chance to do it yet but, is it possible instead that the bridge "update" openLuup instead ? I mean if I rename/move a device in z-way, it will automatically be updated on openLuup on the next reload ?

'cause deleting the plugin, it will break a couple of plugins that I'm using, like Rulesengine and maybe Smartswitch too...

[akbooer]

There should be a device variable called NAMEDEVICES, and if set to true, then the device names should be copied from ZWay.

[DesT]

And what about the room ?

[DesT]

NameDevices is already at TRUE btw

[akbooer]

Same for CloneRooms?

[DesT]

CloneRooms is having of 1, I should change it to true ?

[DesT]

@akbooer just check something else, and looks like I will have the same kind of issue with the verabridge, that doesn't move/rename devices too

[akbooer]

I thought that CloneRooms did that. I don’t have a running Vera or ZWay setup that I can test.

Renaming and reroofing devices is really quick in the openLuup console, on the devices page.

How many devices do you have to relocate?

If you have a list of them (old/new) then it’s easy enough to write a script to automate it.

[DesT]

CloneRooms, I think it works the first time only...

I'm still using Vera for 2 things, 3 zigbee thermostat that I can't migrate on z-way and also the DSC plugin (for our alarm), I have the source of the plugin, but I can't make it works under openLuup, so I'm still having it on Vera!

[DesT]

And I can confirm also that renaming a device under z-way, it doesn't change it under openLuup

[DesT]

if at least the renaming is working, I can move them manually after.

But having the rename them 1 by 1, and also moving, I will be doing that for a long long day

[akbooer]

So ZWay is really the issue, rather than VeraBridge?

[DesT]

I can deal with verabridge, as I don't really changed a lot of stuff on this side. On Vera, I just rename some "rooms", so I can deal with thoses changes manually in openLuup.

The real issue for me, it's z-way bridge, as all my zwave devices are there.

[akbooer]

Does this URL return you a JSON list of ZWave devices?

http://ZWayIP:8083/ZAutomation/api/v1/devices

If I had that, and the user_data.json file from openLuup, than I might be able to make the necessary adjustments.
