Do you think it could be possible to have a custom device for "dimmer" that instead of having the slider from 0 to 99 will give us Off/Low/Medium/High and will send 0,30,60,90 ?

I'm a fan of the SendConfig call action in a couple of scene...
Did you implement something like GetConfig ?
I have a couple of scene that I would need to do a GetConfig to do something based on the value...
-
I was trying to change the ID of a couple of scenes and came to the conclusion you can't do this without stopping openLuup, hacking user_data.json and restarting openLuup, which is a pain. (May be this could be added to openLuup ie be able change any scene ID to a non used one.)
So I figured I would try and clone some of the scenes with the idea that I could then manually swap their contents around. Why would I want to do this? Just to make my scene management a bit more simple as all my scenes call the one pile of Lua code. I also wanted to make use of unused scene IDs sprinkled through the scene ID list.
My understanding was the clone would occupy the first unused scene ID. Using AltUI, it just adds the clone on to the end of the list of scene IDs. In openLuup using the console page it failed to create the clone. Hits the URL OK:
http://openLuup:3480/console?action=clone&scene=14Says this in the log:
GET /console?action=clone&scene=14 HTTP/1.1 tcp{client}: 0x2c05008Searched high and low and no clones to be found.
I see that AltUI does a create when it clones:
openLuup.server:: GET /data_request?id=scene&action=create&json=WITH_ALL_THE_SCENE_INFO_HEREAny ideas?

I woke up to one of the lights in the hallway dimming up and down constantly.. when i tried to open reactor logic summary, there was something weird with the GUI?
The "Tools" tab resizes so i can't reach the logic summary button:
24f6b3f7-cfca-45ba-b568-7c6f5a31ddd7-image.pngThe Reactor instance in Altui pages was also empty, no buttons or text on them, only the icon..
I have a virtual switch to turn on all lights using reactor, and that one worked from the tablet in the kitchen, so reactor was functioning OK..
I reloaded luup and hard refreshed the browser, and all but the "Tools" page is now back to normal.. @toggledbits ?
EDIT: Theres supposed to be some text in the headers on this page, isn't it?

Have you ever considered running openLuup under LuaJIT instead of Lua5.1 interpreter?
The LuaJIT Project
For kicks, I switched my installation to the latest LuaJIT2.1 beta3 dating from 2017 and being a lua5.1 interpreter it is a drop in replacement. I had to move the lfs library from one folder to another likely because of an include path difference but I am seeing a further speed/efficiency improvement vs. lua5.1.
My CPU load has dropped another 25% to now hover around 2.2% down from 2.8%. I have yet to make sure that everything else works but so far everything appears to be the same.
The luajit site claims up to 5x speed increase through the interpreter and 120x improvement through the compiler vs the standard lua5.1.Screen Shot 2020-07-05 at 23.10.02.png
My initial interest was from being able to access some ffi libraries to handle video streams...
PS: Wow it is pretty impressive under load... browsing through ALTUI which used to cause spikes of CPU utilization from 2.8% to 4.8% now only go from 2.3% to 2.6%. It almost looks like noise. I am running it on a pretty fast x64 thread so it may not be that significant but this could make a big difference on ARM.

Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) is a compatibility layer for running Linux binary executables natively on Windows 10.
This is one way to run openLuup under Windows without having to worry whether any of your plugins require a Unix/Linux environment – this way, they actually get one.
Many flavours of Linux are available for WSL from the Microsoft Store – my favourite, to date, is Alpine WSL, which is a tiny (~8 Mb) and lightweight WSL distro based on musl, uses busybox, and just contains the most important things to be functional.
Here's a rough guide to getting openLuup going under Alpine WSL
Enable WSL on via the Windows control panel Install the Alpine WSL app from the Microsoft Store Start the Alpine application Install Lua and some libraries:Alpine comes with a really full set of Lua libraries available for install. You need to be su to install them:
# apk add curl # apk add lua5.1 # apk add lua5.1-md5 # apk add lua5.1-cjson # apk add lua5.1-filesystem # apk add lua5.1-bitop # apk add lua5.1-sec You need to make the file system permanent: $ cd /mnt/c/ $ mkdir cmh-ludl $ cd cmh-ludl Now get and install openLuup and AltUI: $ wget https://github.com/akbooer/openLuup/raw/master/Utilities/openLuup_install.lua $ lua5.1 openLuup_install.luaWhen finished (it won't yet return to the command prompt)
access openLuup via the URL: IP:3480/openLuup Update to latest version (Plugins page, type development in Update box) Install VeraBridge (Device Table > Create D_VeraBridge.xml / I_VeraBridge.xml) Add IP of Vera to VeraBridge attributes Reload VeraBridge device > Actions > GetVeraFiles (wait ~2 minutes) ReloadSimple!

A long while ago (May, 2015) I wrote my 2000-th post on another forum: openLuup - running unmodified plugins on any machine. Here’s the gist of it:
...I want to work in a more open and stable [Vera] environment...
...All would be solved if Luup was open source and could be run on the plethora of cheap and reliable hardware available today. But it’s not. But we could get something like that effect if we engineered a sufficient subset of Luup to run on such a platform. Could it be done? What would we need?
1. UI
2. scheduler
3. web server
4. Luup compatible API
5. Device and Implementation xml file reader
6. Zwave bridge to Vera
7. runs most plugins without modificationWhat we wouldn’t need is UPnP.
What have we (nearly) got already?
We have, courtesy of @amg0, the most excellent AltUI: Alternate UI to UI7, and that, I think, is probably the hardest one to do in the above list. Items 2 - 5, and 7, I’ve prototyped, in pure Lua, and posted elsewhere: DataYours on Raspberry Pi, running selected plugins unmodified, including: DataYours, EventWatcher, Netatmo, RBLuaTest, altUI. See screenshot attached.Is it worth the effort? Probably not. Will I pursue this quest? Yes.
openLuup was the result.

Evening, all. Hope you're all well.
Did the logging line count / rotation challenge ever get sorted? I'm needing to look back at some historical events and my oldest log is barely 3 hours ago. (Not that I can recall how to try and change the line numbers etc)
Cheers!

I've been fiddling with the zigate plugin, as the dongle arrived.. I installed the app from appstore, and saw that the plugin files were not installed properly.
Downloaded the zip files and put all luup files in the cmh_ludl folder. Reloaded luup, and it was in and looking ok
I then entered the IP for it to communicate with the dongle, and reloaded luup.Now the openluup service is running, but i can't get into either altUI or openluup console.
I tried rebooting, stopping and starting the service, no effect.
the logs doesnt seem to be updated either. Now what?

I'm trying to do this now that I have migrated the siren to Zway. Here's the thread from the Vera forums on how to do it with a Vera: https://community.getvera.com/t/playing-sounds-on-the-zooz-siren-zse19/211318
I'm guessing something needs to change in the code since previously it was calling out the vera specifically.
Here's what shows up in the logs when I tried to use Reactor for the SendData. Zway plugin is device 18. And my siren is device number 95 in my Zway network.

While i wait for a replacement app for my local UI devices, i want to use imperihome as long as I can.. But i'm missing a lot of devices!
All Z-Way bridge devices, all security/smoke and motion sensors (local RFXtrx child devices)..
Found the "include vera bridge" in imperihome.lua, what else could cause this?
-
I downloaded ZeroBrane Studio to see if I could make sense of this lua language. @akbooer mentioned that this is what he uses for development, and i thought i could learn alot from seeing how openluup runs.
How do I proceed in order to run openluup in zerobrane? I guess i need to do that to see how scripts like the imperihome ISS script works?
I installed on a windows machine, will I have to run it in linux for it to work?
-
Hi @mrFarmer,
I also have a question about ImperiHome:
I'm trying to configure imperihome with openluup.
Imperihome recognizes the new system, with all devices, status feedback is perfect.
If I turn on something on imperihome, it will seem to be temporarily turned on and then turn off. Device does not actually change.
Can you help me with what could be the problem?
Thanks.

Hi,
I have a couple of luup request, one is a request to VeraAlexa pluging to make alexa speak, the other updating a variable in reactor. They all seem to have a 10-20 second delay
example request
http://192.168.1.134:3480/data_request?id=action&DeviceNum=44&serviceId=urn:toggledbits-com:serviceId:ReactorSensor&action=SetVariable&VariableName=A_home&NewValue=1I can not figure out what is causing the delay, does anyone have any ideas?

Hey @akboer I'm working on a new feature for the virtual HTTP device plug-in and I noticed that variables are cut in UI if very long and multi-line values are not supported.
Plus, RGB are missing a dedicated way to set color and temperature.

Hi guys,
I was wondering what you guys use for push notifications on openluup. I still use VeraAlerts on my vera, but am searching for an alternative that runs on openluup.
Thanks!

I'm using RulesEngine plugin for a while, couple of years, and of course, the plugin is not getting any update as @vosmont stop to update/upgrade this plugin!
I attached one rule, if, by any chance, I would like to convert all my rules to something "native" in openLuup...
is it something possible ?
In the PDF you can see what a rule looks...ALTUI.pdf -
I have some code failing on Vera from time to time. All I got is:
attempt to call a string valueand usually a luup.reload will fix it. It should be something related to startup and scene collision.
Is there a way to really trace lua calls? I'm a DIY regarding LUA and I'm sure there should be a better way to trace and debug errors.
I'll try to code something in order to detect this situation and reload luup, because it's blocking my scenes.
Yes, I know I should migrate all my logic to openLuup, but I can't at the moment.
-
Hi guys,
I’m researching the move away from Vera and z-way has the most chance at this point. However, I came across the geolocation aspect of my setup.
I now use Vera Proximity. It works, but is not the most ideal solution. This won’t be an option anymore after I’ve migrated, so I was wondering what you guys use for geolocation.

so, @rigpapa did it: https://github.com/toggledbits/Vera-Decouple
It's completely decoupling Vera from the cloud. Very cool stuff. /cc @rafale77 @akbooer
openLuup Install errors

Im trying to install openLuup on a Raspberry Pi 4 and using the openLuup User guide. When I run the command sudo apt-get install lua-filesystem it returns the error:
After this operation, 68.6 kB of additional disk space will be used. Err:1 http://mirror.sjc02.svwh.net/raspbian/raspbian buster/main armhf lua-filesystem armhf 1.6.3-1 Cannot initiate the connection to mirror.sjc02.svwh.net:80 (2606:c680:0:b:3830:34ff:fe66:6663). - connect (101: Network is unreachable) Could not connect to mirror.sjc02.svwh.net:80 (72.5.72.15), connection timed out E: Failed to fetch http://mirror.sjc02.svwh.net/raspbian/raspbian/pool/main/l/lua-filesystem/lua-filesystem_1.6.3-1_armhf.deb Cannot initiate the connection to mirror.sjc02.svwh.net:80 (2606:c680:0:b:3830:34ff:fe66:6663). - connect (101: Network is unreachable) Could not connect to mirror.sjc02.svwh.net:80 (72.5.72.15), connection timed out E: Unable to fetch some archives, maybe run apt-get update or try with --fix-missing?If I rerun the command with the -fix-missing option it seems to install without errors.
Continuing with the install i get the following error after the command sudo lua5.1 openLuup_install.lua towards the end:Sun Jul 19 19:13:58 2020 device 3 'Alternate UI' requesting reload rm: cannot remove '/www/altui/altui*': No such file or directoryand have to control c to exit to the prompt.
Is there something I am doing wrong?
-
Perhaps the LuaFileSystem module install was because you hadn’t updated with apt-get before doing the install? Anyway, you have fixed this one.
The other messages are from the AltUI plugin, not openLuup itself, and are quite normal.
Indeed, a manually started process will not return to the shell command prompt unless explicitly detached, since openLuup, at this point, will be running and you should be able to access it through your browser.
So nothing wrong here at all, really.
-
If you mean the apt-get update then yes I did that first per the manual.
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install lua-socket
sudo apt-get install lua-filesystem
sudo apt-get install lua-sec
Thanks -
@SweetGenius said in openLuup Install errors:
- connect (101: Network is unreachable)
It probably would have worked without the fix-missing option as well. Looks like a transient networking issue to me

Just checking. Tried the procedure twice with a clean SD card image both times a day apart.
Thanks for the input. -
@SweetGenius Same error or not?

Same Error.

Change the mirror, then.
