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:

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.

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.

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.
I'm running:

Repeat While
- when was this added @toggledbits ?I'm going to say they been a lot less cranky since I added the dead node routine. It's not strictly for iBlinds, but the battery powered devices are the ones that tend to not report in quite as regularly.
I also have a notification routine that sends me push notifications when battery level is below 35%. This used to be a huge problem when I ran Vera and the original iBlinds. Battery readings would go from 80% to dead overnight. Not so much a problem anymore with HA and the 3.1 version of iBlinds.
This whole thread came up, because I got tired of walking into a room, and wondering if my wife closed a blind on purpose, or if the routine that opens them failed in some manner. I'm hoping this will reduce my questioning.

Build 22023... two and a half years ago.
In fairness, though, it was advertised as "experimental" in the release notes, and I never did make another note to clear that status, so by the power vested in me by the Universal Life Church of Stockton, California USA, I hearby bless it.

@tamorgen @toggledbits is it better to use
cover.open
andcover.close
orpostion.set
=.5
and0/.99
?I'm noticing this morning after moving my open/close Reactions to
Repeat While
that the iblinds will "settle"... ie, land on.52
and then retry for the next few minutes until settling on.51
as "open". -
@gwp1 said in Fail safe condition for battery devices:
is it better to use cover.open and cover.close or postion.set=.5 and 0/.99?
I'm not sure about better, but I'm now using the position.set for consistency. For each blind or set of blinds in a room, I have basically 3 possible positions I want them: Open, (50%/.51), Closed (0%/0, up inside), and a Sun glare position (80%/.81). it's just easier for me to have the same reaction set up, but change the position.set value.

Open, (50%/.51), Closed (0%/0, up inside),
Just a thought: using the between operator (e.g. between 0.495 and 0.515) to allow for floating-point round-off error is probably a good idea. Equality comparisons with floating point values has long been an avoided practice in good programming. In some cases, you may want the range even wider, because sometimes open just means not closed, and that's a big range of values. In fact,
cover.state
actually does this for slat devices, understanding that (ZWave/native values) 0 and 99 mean closed, so anything other than these two values is considered open (i.e.cover.state
reports true).And yes, using a range/between test applies even if the results are rounded explicitly (as
position.value
is). In programming classes, students are taught that a better test isabs( samplevalue - testvalue ) < smalldelta
. Ifsmalldelta
is chosen appropriately, this is pretty much bulletproof across all systems/floating point implementations we normally encounter. You could do this kind of test in an expression in Reactor, but using between gives the same semantic result without the extra complexity.@tamorgen said in Fail safe condition for battery devices:
I'm not sure about better, but I'm now using the position.set for consistency.
For slat devices, this is probably the best choice. I had to make an implementation decision for
cover.close
, whether that was going to mean slats fully up inside (0) or slats fully down inside (99). So I chose up (0). So you could usecover.close
if my choice works for you, but usingposition.set
can do either one, and always will. -

That's a good idea. The .51 value did work for me, but having that wiggle room could definitely save some headaches.
I would assume however, in this case, it would need to be not between in order for it to work, otherwise it'll keep running the repeat while when the condition has already been met.

Yes, between or not between as your logic requires, but the idea is the same.
