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 🙂
Switching from Vera to Hubitat
-
Well finally after a long time, I bought my Hubitat and start the process of working with 2 hubs, with the final goal of staying only with Hubitat.
I want to share my first insight, and of course then a shortlist if you can help to speed up my change with some information.
First perception Hubitat is much more professional, lighter, more technical, and thus more difficult for beginners. Vera has the Dashboard and Devices part more visually elaborated, it is easier and faster to see things, something that Hubitat has to build but gives much more potential for creation. Hubitat's manuals and documents are infinitely better. In summary, the more technical features in my opinion, far outweigh the visual point of Vera.
Some small doubts:
- Is there in Hubitat a way to update/force neighbor nodes?
- In Vera I use the variable x_vera_device.failed or zwave_device.failed to detect devices with problems (long discussions in other posts), in MSR I don't see this variable for Hubitat devices, how to know the device is in a failure state? In MSR Entities I see that Vera devices have many more variables than Hubitat devices.
- In this matchEntities({capability:['x_vera_device']}) expression that lists all the devices, for this x_vera_device parameter it only shows what is in the Vera, which would be common to any hub?
- Who is the equivalent of Vera's Switchboard Plugin from @toggledbits on Hubitat? Do you have something like SiteSensor?
Sorry for asking these questions, I have already searched the manuals and forums and they are issues that after a week of searching I still can't solve.
Thanks.

We don't even know that a node is ZWave. But that's not different from Hass. One of the disappointments of those platforms.

x_vera_device
is a capability that exists only on Vera devices. It's a container for the additional information we can get from the Vera that other platforms don't have in common.@wmarcolin said in Switching from Vera to Hubitat:

This is two separate questions. Virtual devices can be created on Hubitat by clicking "Add Virtual Device" in the Devices list.
I'm not aware of anything like SiteSensor on Hubitat, but I'm not deeply familiar with the breadth of their community apps. It's a good bit of a looser environment than the Vera App Marketplace defined. But, MSR can fulfill the SiteSensor role, as has been discussed in this category in other posts.

@toggledbits hi!
Regarding x_vera_device.failed or zwave_device.failed I understand and I am disappointed by this as well. Well, I follow the search task on the forums to see what I can find, surely I am not the only one who wants to do a check when a device stops responding.
With the point of listing all devices, something similar to x_vera_device for Hubitat to give the same? Any suggestions on what would be a common point across all Hubitat devices?
Ok, now I understand Add Virtual Device, but nothing compared to Switchboard
searching now how to create a radio switch.
Site Sensor ok I will follow what we have discussed in this forum, I don't like, Sitesensor seems more transparent/impactful than being in a recurrent way triggering the MSR to test every 5 seconds the internet.
I'm seeing that the road will be longer than I thought, strong advantage that I'm really seeing is the compatibility with devices, especially S2, and of course start using Zigbee, I have 4 devices that I bought more than a year and finally will use.

It is the purpose of the
x_
capabilities to express hub-specific data and behavior. It is the purpose of the "standard" capabilities ( likepower_switch
andtemperature_sensor
) to provide a "lingua franca" interpretation of the data when possible (and I encourage you to use those capabilities when possible in preference to thex_
capabilties).The
x_
capabilities try to expose as much information as the hub offers in its raw form, so I would examine your entities and look at what's there. If there are opportunities to map those to standard services and it hasn't been done, bring that to my attention and I can add that mapping. But nonetheless, you are not cut off from the data; it's all there. What you don't find there is data that doesn't exist (i.e. isn't offered by the hub).In the case of Hubitat, if data or capability (action) is not exposed through MakerAPI, the Hubitat forums should receive that complaint. And it's more effective if those complaints come from multiple users (i.e. not just me). But Hass, Ezlo, it's all the same... if there's a way to figure it out, I will (especially if you help by providing data I don't have access to), but if the hub's API doesn't offer the necessary data, the hub has to change, not MSR.

@toggledbits thanks for the reply online, I will take your message and see what I should do and of course try to help.
But today I am really bothered by Hubitat not signaling clearly that a device is failing. Yesterday, more than 24 hours ago, I purposely unplugged a plug from the electricity supply to see if there were any failure signals, and there are none.
This to me is extremely serious, devices can for some reason lose communication, stop working, and only when an action fails should we investigate and understand. This is absurd to me, if I go on vacation and the door/window or motion sensors are not responding, does that mean that the alarm will not work? Maybe my analysis is hasty, but this is serious, I want to act before, when I already know that a communication established by wakeup interval does not happen, I will be warned.
I posted a similar message in the Hubitat group of users and received this comment (https://community.hubitat.com/t/how-many-ex-vera-owners-are-here/44951/122), I will look into this Device Activity Check that you have developed.
Again Patrick, thank you very much for your always kind attention, I saw that in another chat you mention that you have to take some time for your son, to go to University. Good luck, and unplug for a while
who knows, maybe you'll come back with more brilliant ideas for all of us.
Thanks.

This is another reason I'm doing my own ZWave-JS integration for MSR, and not relying on, for example, HA (which uses ZWave-JS now) to be a sufficient pass-through. That makes Reactor much more "hub-ish", I realize, but this is a clear example where the middle-man (HA) is not contributing to capability.

Completing one week of full Hubitat use, and a few comments:
- Dashboard assembly, super easy to use, lots of customization potential, I don't believe I have to use anything external, positive point;
- Undoubtedly better the part of drives to add devices, accepted S2 devices that with Vera I couldn't add, finally I believe I will use Zigbee devices, extremely favorable point;
- Despite being easy to add devices, very, very bad antenna signal. What covered my house quietly with Vera, I am having a very difficult time with the signal. It's been 5 days since I migrated more than 80 devices, half of them connected directly to the electrical network, i.e. they are repeaters, and I still have communication failures, a worrisome point;
- My first impression is that Hubitat is slower than Vera, at least it has failed a lot with MSR. I see that MSR sends a command, and Hubitat ignores it, or doesn't execute all the action steps. I know there has already been some comment in this forum of interval times, I have to find the discussion and understand this detail, MSR flies and Hubitat walks, point of concern;
- No doubt cleaner drives, attributes are only the main thing without loading a lot of unnecessary stuff as Vera has, but I complain again and have already put in support, the fact of not having the device_fault, or zwave_fault as an attribute to indicate failure is very bad. The option to use the community's APP, I didn't like at all, because everything involves a complexity that used to be easier to see in the Vera panel, and now with MSR's DynamicGroup it would be great to manage failures, bad point.
Well, I hope this weekend I can have some time to dedicate to understanding what I can do to improve the Mesh network that they say Hubitat handles well, but that is not what I see.
Well Patrick, waiting your ZWave-JS

@wmarcolin I did this migration over the last several months, finally turning off my Vera (to eliminate useless radio interference) just last week.
"My first impression is that Hubitat is slower than Vera"
That's interesting to me as my first thought was "wow, this thing is like greased lightning - it barely lets me finish a command and it's done", even when using the Alexa/Google/Homekit integrations which should be adding latency having to traverse the web and back.
I was heavily using the
Reactor
plugin in Vera along with two SiteSensors for calling weather APIs. I very recently replaced both of those SiteSensors withExpressions
inMSR
and they work flawlessly.I do have H-A but it's mostly for dashboarding and my dislike toward paying another $5/month for another service from another hub to make my hub accessible online for status checks.
-
I really don't know if I did something very wrong, but I consider myself an experienced person, so what I am witnessing in my Hubitat is making me extremely worried.
See the report below that I just ran, 31 nodes failing.
You comment about leaving Reactor that I'm sure was happy, and now using MSR, this opens up a huge universe of possibilities, I'm really a fan, I just hope to have a hub at the same level as MSR.
