I've done a bit of repackaging of MSR to make it work as an add-on under Home Assistant mostly for my own purposes but hopefully it makes it a bit easier to install and get going.

Trying to figure out how I can include a list of entities that have "battery_level" in their ID without having to manually include them in a list. I have a group which selects all entities with the battery_power capability and filters them if they are dead. In HA there are quite a few entities that have the battery_power capability but don't actually report a battery percent (see screenshot below for an example), the entities I am interested in are the ones that contain battery_level in their ID.
I tried the following in the config file but it hasn't worked:
"dead_battery": select: - include_capability: battery_power - include_entity: "/^hass>battery_level/"What I think I am doing wrong here is that I am including entities with the batter_level capability which doesn't actually exist.

Suddenly my MSR actions aren't running anymore. I've had this before, but with an update to a new version it was fixed. see also
But an update from version 22240 to 22256 gave this time no result.
The reactions aren't running correctly. Most of my MSR automations are use turn lights on/off, and time based automations nothing worked where MSR does his magic.
I've also tested a bunch of things to see what's broken, here's what I've observed:
-I can successfully flip lights on/off manually within Vera
-I can successfully flip lights on/off manually within MSR's Entities section
-the sensors are correctly reporting to Vera and MSR (I can see when they're switch on/off)
-the rules within MSR are working correctly, I can see when they flip to 'true' of 'false' '
'
But I cannot successfully run the "Set Reaction" and "Reset Reaction" within MSR (by hitting the 'play' button)
But the play buttons on the entitiy action in the "Set Reaction" and in "Reset Reaction" they work well.Can someone help me to get MSR working again
MSR is running bare metal on Rpi4

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. -
I've made a few templates for MQTTController, mostly Zigbee2MQTT, and sharing them to the community if anyone else would find use for them.

These are the ones I'm using but I'm happy to add more Zigbee2MQTT templates if needed.
Happy Holidays!

Hi,
Connection to Ezlo is going in timeout with api-cloud.ezlo. This happens in anonymous_access set to false or in true.
A lot of Error Incompatible serialization data (in the log I cut many more).
In MSR controller status, Ezlo is in green icon but after sometime devices start to not respond.
Can I have some help?Synology Nas - INTEL - DSM 7.1.1-42962 Update 3

Good afternoon. I want to connect Reactor to HA. HA is installed on Proxmox. Proxmox is installed on a Beelink U59 PRO mini PC. Studied the installation instructions ( https://reactor.toggledbits.com/docs/Installation / ) but I didn't understand how to do it (I'm a weak linux user). Help, give detailed instructions on how to install MSR.
Reactor is a cool plugin, I use it on VeraPlus, but gradually I want to switch to HA.
Thanks. -
My migration from Vera to Hubitat is almost ready, only Sonos & Visonic (alarm system) remain on Vera. Hubitat has a Sonos integration, but it lacks neural voices for TTS so I've been looking for an alternative solution.
@a-lurker hinted that there's a mqtt version for Sonos so I went that route and installed Docker containers for both sonos2mqtt and sonos-tts-polly. It turned out that I won't need mqtt for this at all, and I can utilize Hubitat's integration and just use the latter container for Polly.
Did create a separate user on AWS only for TTS usage (there's an access right called "AmazonPollyReadOnlyAccess") and configured key, secret & cache in the container. Then I made the following test rule / reaction in MSR:
Screenshot 2023-01-20 at 15.32.23.png Screenshot 2023-01-20 at 15.32.38.png
So if anyone else has the same (or similar) setup, here's one way to achieve neural TTS with Sonos.

Please can anyone give me advice on a cheap way to run MSR (both initial cost and ongoing electricity cost). I currently run it on my QNAP network drive (which works very well incidentally). However, this draws a constant 35Watts (£90/yr @ 30p/kWh) and given the recent rise in fuel costs I am evaluating the best way forwards. Note, I only really need to turn my QNAP on for an hour a week to back-up my computer data. I understand that MSR can run on a Raspberry PI, but I am not competent with Linux! Thanks.

MSR latest-23010-7dd2c9e9 in a Docker image
HE C7 hub on 2.3.4.130I'm trying to determine how to sense that a button has actually been pushed. I added a ThirdReality button to my hub and the current states don't release or reset after a function has been done. I/E: when I push the button, it sets the "pushed" state to 1. Same for all the other functions, double tap, hold, release. Nothing ever goes back to 0 or cleared out.
If I write my trigger as when "button.pushed" == 1, the current value is already one and the rule stays true all the time. What I'm after is when the button is pushed, the action will toggle the light I want to control.
I feel like I am missing something or maybe the States of the button are the issue. I can use Rule Machine in my HE and it sees the button as pushed, or held. But I would prefer to have all my logic in MSR.
And for some reason, I cannot post images. The server keeps giving me a parsing error.

Hi,
Took me a while to realise the issue here. Just want to share to save others the time of trying to figure out what's wrong.
Reactor (Multi-hub) stable-22337-1a0a685f Home Assistant 2022.11.5Home Assistant integration with non-admin user (access token) will caused the Home Assistant status in Reactor to show as down. Entity info from Home Assistant, however, is being updated. But Reactor is unable to execute any reactions.
If the user is changed to an admin user in Home Assistant, the status is changed to up and reactions work.

I'm using ZWaveJSUI 1.4.2 within Home Assistant 2023.1.3. ZWaveJSController has been quite happy with it until I upgraded ZWaveJSController to 23010. This morning my iblinds weren't responding at all.
As I'd made some changes to the rules I figured it was my work and returned it to original rules. No change (iblinds not responding.)
Restarted MSR.
Restarted ZWaveJSUI.
No change.Rolled back ZWaveJSController to prior version 22323 and all is well again, iblinds responding.
Thinking on this as I'm writing it and I realized there was a light on this morning that shouldn't have been. I now realize it's on the ZWaveJSUI as well and didn't turn off last night as the house went to sleep.
I have the reactor.log if @toggledbits would like it.

I've noticed lately (at least with build 22328) that in some cases these yellow warning / alert icons in front of rules are missing, although errors are otherwise visible:
-
My main objective was to track cars/motorcycles in real time, as they are leaving/entering the property, and I've experimented with different solutions, including WiFi devices, but I was not satisfied.
So, I have approached ESPresense to track BLE devices. I'm not yet 100% satisfied with my main use case (we'll see), but I learnt a couple of things about proximity along the way, so I've built a controller to natively track beacons/devices in MSR. The devices and beacons could be tracked inside Home Assistant, but I don't like the way it's doing it, and I wanted a very device-oriented solution, instead of a room one.
Introducing reactor-espresense.
You'll have a device containing various info, like the current room where the beacon/device is currently in, the distance, and so on, for each BTLE device you'll choose to map. Configuration is needed to map your devices, and a look at the doc to understand how devices/beacons are detected away is suggested.
I've not invested into commands so much, but it's on my TODO list.
Feel free to post your requests/comments. Thanks!

@toggledbits was looking thru rule sets and updating which (new) lights I wanted REMII to impact and saw that this...
4711b0df-5e98-4992-bb25-d0e53203f0e8-image.png
...is showing as (missing) in the rule Deactivatedand looking in the dropdown of Variables it appears I cannot select that local expression (only Global) as I did when originally building this out back in 2021.
27f7025c-057e-441a-88ea-dc4bdf39614d-image.png
In looking at the rule Active Period I'm seeing:
487074ef-3bfa-4a84-b03d-ed6d920c118c-image.png which appears to be pointing to setting a variable in a rule?It's admittedly been a couple years since this was built and it's def not fresh in my memory.

Hello All -
I upgraded my OS to Ubuntu 20.04 today and have been regretting it for several hours. I have most of my system up. However, I've found that, when I start Reactor, it panics / reboots my OS. I've included the syslog during startup below. There's a benign message about not finding a Vera device just before the reboot but that's it.Needless to say, I've learned my lesson regarding OS upgrades.

Reactor Version: stable-22337-1a0a685f -
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:
GitHub - dbochicchio/reactor-mqtt-contrib: Contrib MQTT templates for Reactor GitHub - dbochicchio/reactor-mqtt-contrib: Contrib MQTT templates for Reactor
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 🙂
How to? Rule for Vera "Can't Detect Device" errors and reset
-
Hi
I have some devices on my Vera Plus controller that sometimes change to say "Can't detect device".
I can clear those red banners that show up in the Vera UI7 web GUI, for a device by running some LUA code like this:
luup.set_failure(0, 331)
Maybe I can use the new MSR matchEntities to find and detect any devices on Vera that have developed the "Can't detect device" error and then reset them. ?
I can currently manually specify a particular problem device in a ruleset trigger like this:
But if I could have a rule that automatically detects any device that develops this problem that would be better.
Thanks
-
I have a problem device right now an Everspring appliance plug that says "Can't Detect Device".
If I run this LUA code on the Vera controller it does clear the red banner from the web GUI but then it comes back again about 20 seconds later, so maybe there is more to it than I thought.
luup.set_failure(0, 50)
Normally to fix this issue with this particular smart plug, I have to removed it from the wall outlet and then plug it back in again and then the problem goes away for a good period of time.
-
This has recently been covered in other threads, but it would be good to roll up everything so far into one place.
Create a global expression to find all of the Vera devices with CommFailure <> "0":
Failed = each id in matchEntities( { capability: 'x_vera_device' } ): ( getEntity(id)?.attributes.x_vera_svc_micasaverde_com_HaDevice1.CommFailure ?# 0 ) !=0 ? id : null
Now you can do whatever you want with that array. To a create a comma-separated list of names:
FailedNames = join( each id in Failed: getEntity(id)?.name ?? id, ", " )
You can then have a rule that just checks to see if
FailedNames
is not an empty string. Of course, you could combine the two expressions into one for a bit of efficiency (assuming the arrayFailed
has no value other than to driveFailedNames
), but separating them may be more clear.Through the other conversations we learned that this is best done in global variables because the large potential number of devices involved can cause excessive evaluations of the rule and rule throttling. That is simply a result of
getEntity()
being used on a large number of entities, and each use ofgetEntity()
adds the target entity to a watch list, so the rule's watch list can become quite large. The global variables will evaluate faster than a rule, and are not subject to throttling (but be aware, a lot of work is still being done).Also note that other examples check
CommFailure=1
rather thanCommFailure<>0
. Not recommended. There are defined values ofCommFailure
other than 0 and 1 that are significant (errors).Edit: Amended the expression to handle devices that don't have the
CommFailure
variable at all (ignore/treat as 0/not failed). -
-
@cw-kid should be "!=" not "<>"
-
noticed also that using CommFailure != "0" leads to false positives as not all my z-wave devices have CommFailure variable (but should be safe to add?)
-
@tunnus said in How to? Rule for Vera "Can't Detect Device" errors and reset:
should be "!=" not "<>"
That then lists some plugin devices and scene controller devices.
"Fan" device is also listed however and that is the device I am actually have issues with.
-
-
So what are you then doing in your rules actions ? To reset the devices? Or are you just sending yourself notifications about the problem devices?
-
@tunnus said in How to? Rule for Vera "Can't Detect Device" errors and reset:
noticed also that using CommFailure != "0" leads to false positives as not all my z-wave devices have CommFailure variable
I've amended my version of the expression to ignore devices that don't have
CommFailure
at all and still honor all possible non-zero values when present. -
@cw-kid as you’ve already realized, there’s really not much that can be done (programatically). I use this for notification purposes only
-
@toggledbits Is it the case that CommFailure is only an attribute of the HaDevice1 type. Per the below, I pre-filtered on "x_vera_svc_micasaverde_com_HaDevice1". I had some interesting results from the expression, though I'm still trying to get my head around expression syntax, so the below may be wrong:
join( each id in matchEntities( { controller: 'vera', capability: 'x_vera_svc_micasaverde_com_HaDevice1' } ): do e=getEntity( id ), e.attributes.x_vera_svc_micasaverde_com_HaDevice1.CommFailure !=0 ? e.name : null done, ", " )
Three of my zwave devices did not have a CommFailure attribute and I suspect, they were incorrectly migrated to my UI7 veraplus from a ui5 veralite. A reconfigure command established the CommFailure attribute for all three.
There is one plugin on my vera (it's the only plugin on the vera) that does not have the CommFailure attribute. Does the attribute get added automatically when one installs a plugin? I'm asking in the sense that a re-install might correct the problem but I don't want to mess with anything that isn't obviously broken.
-
The attributes is strictly tied to its existence on the Vera device. Use the guard code I added to my earlier
getEntity()
to prevent its absence from breaking the test. -
@buxton as @toggledbits mentioned, in another conversation (https://smarthome.community/topic/739/logic-loop-throttling/11) we discussed a similar situation, I recommend reading it.
And if I can do a suggestion, do not use CommFailure for this evaluation. I did several simulations in the exercise we mentioned, and this attribute fails more than x_vera_device.failed, this one responds faster (true / false).
Below is the screen of the test I am using, with the Global variable.
-
@wmarcolin Yes, thanks. I have the data point "x_vera_device.failed" covered with the following expression:
join( each id in matchEntities( { controller: 'vera', capability: 'x_vera_device' } ): do e=getEntity( id ), e.attributes.x_vera_device.failed ? e.name : null done, ", " )
I was using CommFailure to detect devices that have not been configured properly, and sure enough, I found three on my network.
-
@toggledbits said in How to? Rule for Vera "Can't Detect Device" errors and reset:
The attributes is strictly tied to its existence on the Vera device
Yes, I was asking more in general terms about what happens when a plugin gets initialized. And whether CommFailure is a specific attribute of Vera's HaDevice1 type.
-
@toggledbits These devices that for some reason do not have CommFailure variable set, do you think it is safe to just manually add it? Don't want to do anything too "extensive", like exclusion/inclusion process
-
Guarding for it in your expressions is the "right" way (example shown in linked post).
-
@toggledbits yep, I'm using that also, but wondering if I could add those missing variables
-
You can, but I wouldn't. But I've spent 40 years as a software engineer, and have learned many times over that you don't bend the input to conform to your algorithm, you get the algorithm right, so I'm (probably very predictably) stubborn about that kind of thing. Proper guarding for null (missing data) ensures that the result works always works (e.g. after including new devices or replacing existing, or broken devices/driver/plugin implementations, etc.), and is thus applicable to all users (so the code they see posted here actually works for them to the greatest degree possible without assembling other information or steps that may not be obvious).
If you're guarding properly, there's no need for the extra work and ongoing maintenance.
