Uploaded and expanded OK...but there is no config/reactor.yaml file to edit.

If you're using a Pi, you should have run the install script in the tools directory, which copies the files from dist-config to config. If you are installing on other Linux, there's a step in the instructions to do the copy manually. But that's all you need to do: cp dist-config/* config/

Having trouble with the import tool,

Can you paste some output? Let's have a look at that...

I posted an issue on MantisBT but maybe I did it wrong. Should I try there again?

Good on ya! I see it...

OK. Easy enough. Not sure how that snuck by... Probably the easiest is to have you just open it in a text editor, find the line (192) that says case 'interval': { and just remove that curly brace from the end of it. Save, and try again.

Nice. Any issues with the install?

Yes, but only due to myself. Following your instructions it went well Will continue the testing later today ...

Linux Neanderthal here, I tried to install it on my Raspberry Pi2.

I got this output not sure what it means, it says I need to commit some file?

The version of nodejs currently installed is v12.20.1 (compatible).

OK. Now please LOG OUT, then log back in and continue the installation procedure
(see docs/markdown/Installation.md or docs/html/Installation/index.html).

The installation Guide here then says to:

"Edit the file config/reactor.yaml and, on the line beginning baseurl:, replace the IP address with the actual primary IP address of your system."

There is a "config" folder present but it is empty.

There is a folder called /home/pi/Documents/reactor/dist-config and the reactor.yaml file was in there, so I edited that one and added my Pi's IP address.

I actually didn't even have a "Documents" folder to begin with, I had to create that folder first in this path: /home/pi/Documents

It then says to:

"Start up Reactor: node app.js"

Looks like there were some errors during startup.

Will Reactor be started automatically after you reboot the Pi ?

Answer = NO

"I haven't fully daemon-ized Reactor yet while still in test mode, but eventually it will, of course, be available for startup at boot time."

Anyway I have the Reactor up and running it seems, I can access it in the web browser.

I then edited the reactor.yaml file and added my location details and the IP for my Vera hub. However after restarting MSR I had nothing listed in Entities other than Reactor System.

I had to copy the reator.yaml file from this folder to this folder and then it worked.

/home/pi/Documents/reactor/dist-config

to

/home/pi/Documents/reactor/config

I can now see my Vera device and scenes listed under Entities

Thanks

[cw-kid]

Will this work for Conditions ?

Vera is not in either Away mode (2) or in Vacation mode (4)

or like this ?

Or some other way?

Thanks

There is a "config" folder present but it is empty.

Just copy the files from dist-config to config manually. Reactor won't read config files unless they are in config.

The startup error can be ignored; it's for loading test data, which isn't present.

@cw-kid said in Multi-System Reactor Developer Preview AVAILABLE:

Reactor's "House Mode" entity uses words: home, away, night, vacation. Note what is showing for "Current value" underneath the condition. You can also see this in the Entities list.

EDIT: Also, can we please start threading discussions in this category? It's going to get unruly fast if everyone is talking about everything as replies to one thread.

@toggledbits

Hi

Thanks for the reply.

I have used the words "away" and "vacation". However when I see this summary it says null or no data for the house mode triggers (conditions).

So don't think its working.

EDIT:

Using "Does not contain" rather than "not in" looks better ?

[toggledbits]

That's an unexpected difference. Equals and not equals would also be applicable here.

[cw-kid]

@toggledbits In PLEG not equals is != I'm assuming <> is not equals in MSR. I'll change it to that as its better than "does not contain".

[rafale77]

Decided to test this on a separate machine: a <$100 HP T640 thin client which is on its way. Will jump in to testing as soon as it is setup.

[therealdb]

Congrats on the release. If you want to install on a x64 machine, just edit rpi-install.sh and replace arm7 with x64. I have mine on Windows Subsystem for Linux under Windows and it's running OK.

Can't wait for guidance on apdaters/plugins to contribute with Shelly and MQTT

MQTT will be huge.

[toggledbits]

On my list of hubs/controllers to tackle next are Homey and OpenHAB, but I am also interested in MQTT, so I'm hearing a bump in priority coming, at least for investigation.

[LibraSun]

I'm enjoying this thread as it develops, but will stand by until someone wraps MSR into a Docker package that I can install/run on my Docker-enabled Synology NAS.

Like everyone else, "I'm at full candy corn" (so the Stewie Griffith saying goes) on this project and can't wait to give it a whirl!

@toggledbits

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.

[Matohl]

I realise that I have to re-think my rules from Vera since I can only have one set of reaction to a rule. In Vera you could have different reaction to different rules within one sensor. I have to look at Rule Set's

[toggledbits]

The importer will automatically split out any group that has activities (from Vera) to a Rule in MSR, and leave a "rule" condition in the parent to preserve the logic. I think it's wayyyy more convenient, but I've also had a few months of working on it to get used to it.

You can also create global reactions that can be run from any other reaction.
