openweather plugin ?

@ArcherS, @Buxton

Latest openLuup development version (v21.5.10, and yes, we're back to that branch) includes fixes for Tasmota (and Shelly) Historian, including archive rules for Temperature / Humidity / Battery variable names.

Please Note: you should reload openLuup once more after updating, to get the Historian and Grafana to sync properly.

[ArcherS]

@therealdb said in openLuup: Tasmota MQTT Bridge:

@archers it should work regardless. The openluup log page is under /console

Aha, I thought it ended up in a separate logfile.

This is what I get in the log when changing the temperature of the device (no 50):

@akbooer OK that worked. Thx

Edit: Humidity variables are back. Looks like about 4 hours passed

I still do not see the humidity variables on the cache page though. The humidity values have recently updated as a scene I run based on humidity trigger points, fired about an hour ago.

[Buxton]

This is what I get in the log when changing the temperature of the device (no 50):

Looking at the logs, you're setting the temperature while the heater is off, so it's skipped. Do you want to turn it on if the temperature is below the target?

[akbooer]

@buxton said in openLuup: Tasmota MQTT Bridge:

Humidity variables are back. Looks like about 4 hours passed

Yes, that's not unexpected. In fact, it requires two variable updates before the variable appears on the historian list (because many, otherwise untinteresting, variables are updated once at startup.)

@buxton said in openLuup: Tasmota MQTT Bridge:

Ah yes, those pesky topic separators '/' in the variable name – I knew it would come back to bite me. They are, of course, in the Unix file world, directory path separators. Some work required on the HIstorian filename handling...

I created a new device just to start from fresh:

When I try to change the dropdown from "off" to "Heat" it reverts back after I e.g. change rooms or reload the browser. The same thing when changing the temperature. Should it not stay at the value I set? I may be missing something obvious here on how the heater controller works, since it is the first time I play around with one.

These are the attributes:

and the variables:

The current temp was at 2000 when the device was created, tried changing it to e.g. 20, but makes no difference.

Some log entries from when changing the values:

@akbooer No historian errors and all "checked" variables are publishing to my InfluxDB server.

[akbooer]

That's great. The next release will have a new openLuup > Historian > Rules page so that you can see what patterns are being used to match variables for archiving. Not yet editable, but that may come in future. Feel free to ask for more/better rules and I can put them into another release, or tell you how to add them in Lua Startup.

[Buxton]

@akbooer Cool. Making the checklist active would be great as there are some oddball variables that I'd like to incorporate, and creating wsp files by hand, while not super difficult--I have several-- is not exactly easy either....

[akbooer]

Installed and it seems to work as it should. Next step is to upgrade on my main OpenLuup server after some runtime on the test server.

[therealdb]

@archers said in openLuup: Tasmota MQTT Bridge:

2021-05-11 10:05:35.103 luup.variable_set:: 52.urn:bochicchio-com:serviceId:VirtualHeater1.SetPowerURL was: EMPTY now: http:// #hooks:0

This is by design. As you can see, you've not set SetPowerURL and SetPowerOffURL to anything significant, like the mqtt message, so it's not sending anything, and it's acting with the default behavior: if you're not replying with 200-ish HTTP response, it will not change variables. When using mqtt:// prefix, it will update immediately.

I'll work on this anyway, since it's not sending temperature command at the moment, but I think it's a good addition in your use case - and to other people as well.

Please try with mqtt commands and let me know, because I have it working good.

EDIT: it's done, just set SetSetpointURL variable to

mqtt://cmnd/TasmotaIR/IRhvac/=/{"Vendor":"FUJITSU_AC","Model":1,"Mode":"Heat","Power":"On","Celsius":"On","Temp":%s,"FanSpeed":"Auto","SwingV":"Off","SwingH":"Off","Quiet":"Off","Turbo":"Off","Econo":"Off","Light":"Off","Filter":"Off","Clean":"Off","Beep":"Off","Sleep":-1}

(notice the %s). it's sending the temperature that's set. it's beta3 on GitHub, from master branch.

[ArcherS]

@therealdb my feeling was that I had missed something.
Yes I think it could be a good usecase.

Edit: I got to send the Mqtt message a few times, but not every time. Not sure why it does not send every time though. Does it matter if it is "off" or "heat"?

Edit 2: It seems as if it works! Mode "off" and then the set temp sends the Mqtt message. Maybe if was a poll delay or something. I will test some more.

I tried to add the above mqtt:// into the SetSetpoint URL but nothing seems to be sent, i.e. nothing is appearing in the Tasmota Console.

This is what I see in the log (device no 52):

@archers temp is sent for set target only, but I could add easily to power on/off.

[ArcherS]

@therealdb said in openLuup: Tasmota MQTT Bridge:

@archers temp is sent for set target only, but I could add easily to power on/off.

Thanks for all the effort! It could be a useful addition for a more generic usecase, i.e. to have the posibility to add on/off in the same way as for temperature with a vaiable similar to %s.
I tested on my Fujitsu and "Power":"On" resp "Power":"Off" in the Mqtt message turns it on and off so it seems quite straight forward.

For my particular usecase I may go in a slightly different direction. My idea is to put the Tasmota IR so that it can both send commands to the HVAC and also that it can capture commands from the remote via Mqtt and IrReceived.
I have tested this a bit and it seems to work quite well. I setup at Reactor pulling the data sent from the remote to the HVAC and also sending data to the HVAC, so far only when changing the temp, but I may add e.g. fan speed.

[therealdb]

@archers heater is a bit behind the others, where I’m already supporting mqtt messages to update values. I could add it easily over the weekend. You’ll find two variables to update. Send me your messages, so I could try to replicate it and give you precise instructions. It’s one of the things I’ll change in my setup, so it’s work I’m doing for myself as well

[ArcherS]

@therealdb for my Fujutsu unit:

Message to turn off device:

mqtt://cmnd/TasmotaIR/IRhvac/=/{"Vendor":"FUJITSU_AC","Model":1,"Mode":"Heat","Power":"Off","Celsius":"On","Temp":20,"FanSpeed":"Auto","SwingV":"Off","SwingH":"Off","Quiet":"Off","Turbo":"Off","Econo":"Off","Light":"Off","Filter":"Off","Clean":"Off","Beep":"Off","Sleep":-1}

Message to turn on device:

mqtt://cmnd/TasmotaIR/IRhvac/=/{"Vendor":"FUJITSU_AC","Model":1,"Mode":"Heat","Power":"On","Celsius":"On","Temp":20,"FanSpeed":"Auto","SwingV":"Off","SwingH":"Off","Quiet":"Off","Turbo":"Off","Econo":"Off","Light":"Off","Filter":"Off","Clean":"Off","Beep":"Off","Sleep":-1}

I do not know if it would be possible to control the fan also, I am not sure there is a good controller for it. If so the fan is controlled with the "Fanspeed" being set to five values 1-4 and auto: "Min", "Low", "Medium", Max" and "Auto" e.g.

mqtt://cmnd/TasmotaIR/IRhvac/=/{"Vendor":"FUJITSU_AC","Model":1,"Mode":"Heat","Power":"On","Celsius":"On","Temp":20,"FanSpeed":"Max","SwingV":"Off","SwingH":"Off","Quiet":"Off","Turbo":"Off","Econo":"Off","Light":"Off","Filter":"Off","Clean":"Off","Beep":"Off","Sleep":-1}

[therealdb]

@archers after we’re done with heaters, I’ll definitely add a thermostat to the mix, even if it’s a mess and it’s not easy. In the meantime, you could control it with a dimmer. Maybe it’s time to add transformation to the mix, so we could easily produce a range (1…4) from 0/100.

Anyway, I was speaking of mqtt messages to get the status, if available in your use case - ie when changing the mode via the official remote.
