    • Home Assistant add-on

      M

      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.

    • Renaming Global Expressions possible?

      Snowman

      I am doing some clean-up and wondering if there is a way to rename Global Expressions.

      Unless I am blind, which I wouldn't be surprised, I can't seem to find an answer.

      Thanks

    • MSR controller status panel

      R

      Running latest version of MSR in Docker on Bullseye/Raspberry Pi CM4. Every time I "restart" MSR it returns to the default set of status panels. I add "Controller Status", but it disappears on every restart. Is this the planned behavior or do I have an issue somewhere?

    • Way to copy or export Alerts?

      cw-kid

      Hi

      Is there a way to copy text from an Alert or export them?

      I wanted to copy a device ID number that MSR says no longer exists on my Ezlo Plus controller.

      Thanks

    • Include Entity by Name in Dynamic Group Controller

      Pabla

      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.

    • [Solved] MSR actions aren't running anymore-- can't find what's broken

      E

      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

      https://smarthome.community/topic/987/msr-actions-aren-t-running-anymore-can-t-find-what-s-broken/3?_=1674661492589

      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

    • Ezlo Controller - Error Incompatible serialization data - api cloud Timeout

      N

      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?

    • Help. Installing Reactor on Home Assistant.

      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.

    • Neural TTS with Sonos & Hubitat

      tunnus

      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.

    • Cheapest platform on which to run MSR

      T

      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.

    • [Resolved] Determining if button is pushed

      3

      MSR latest-23010-7dd2c9e9 in a Docker image
      HE C7 hub on 2.3.4.130

      I'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.

    • Admin user required for Home Assistant Controller status and reactions

      S

      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 2022.11.5

      Home 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.

    • [Solved] ZWaveJSUI not responding to ZWaveJSController

      G

      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.

    • [MSR] reactor-espresense to track ESPresense BTLE devices/beacons

      therealdb

      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!

      Reactor latest-22067 on Raspberry Pi, Influx DB 1.8, both in Docker. Controlling two separate Hubitat C7s.

      I am storing data for CPU load and free memory from the Hub Information device on the Hubitat Hub in the Influx database so that I can graph them.

      I noticed that for the last two days I was not getting the free memory on my graph. (I don't currently graph the CPU data.) When I restarted Reactor I got two data points and then nothing for a while.

      I looked at the Hubitat Hub Information device and could see the numbers changing there. I also watched the entities screen in Reactor and could see it flash green when it updated. Both the Hubitat device and the Reactor entities matched and were updating.

      However the Influx database stopped getting new data. What I see in Grafana matches what I see when I directly query the database in a terminal window, so it is not an issue with Grafana.

      The Hub Temperature data is updating in the database every time it changes. It is not one of the extra attributes that I added. It is logged as a regular temperature_sensor.

      This is the relevant portion of reactor.yaml:

            select_capabilities:   
              light_sensor: true   
              x_hubitat_Thermostat:
                attributes:
                  - coolingSetpoint
                  - heatingSetpoint
                  - thermostatFanMode
                  - thermostatMode
                  - thermostatOperatingState
                  - thermostatSetpoint
                  - temperature
              x_hubitat_extra_attributes:
                attributes:
                  - cpu5Min
                  - cpuPct
                  - freeMemory
              wx:
                attributes:
                  - temperature
                  - humidity
                  - cloud_cover
      

      This chart from Grafana illustrates what is happening. The data points circled in red are the pairs of points from two restarts of Reactor. The yellow line and green line represent the two separate Hubitat hubs that I'm connected to. The blue line is the CPU temperature from one of the hubs.

      ac19c0aa-d9f5-4b82-9f8d-05d6ea2acc9e-image.png

      Here is the same graph from a little later to show the CPU temp is continuing to update, but the free memory is not:

      4014600c-8501-4e58-b13c-987b5a6e9502-image.png

      Again, the free memory is changing in the entities screen every time it changes in the hub, but the data isn't being saved to InfluxDB after the first two data points.

      Looking at the most recent documentation, I saw the format for the attributes was different, using a trailing ":true" intead of a leading "-", so I tried switching my reactor.yaml to match. The section now reads:

          x_hubitat_extra_attributes:
            attributes:
              cpu5Min: true
              cpuPct: true
              freeMemory: true
      

      I restarted Reactor and got the same result.

      Final observation... the second data point in each pair is incorrect...

      After the last restart I pulled the data from the database.

      time                controller    cpu5Min cpuPct entity            freeMemory name
      ----                ----------    ------- ------ ------            ---------- ----
      1646918194198000000 hubitat_11705 0.07    1.75   hubitat_11705>130 526192     Hub information
      1646918045910000000 hubitat       0.23    5.75   hubitat>483       324088     Hub information
      1646918032985000000 hubitat_11705 0.07    1.75   hubitat_11705>130 526192     Hub information
      

      The first and third lines are relevant here. They are both for the 'hubitat_11705' hub. They show the free memory as 526192 on both lines.

      But when the second data point was saved to the database the reactor entity showed:

      x_hubitat_extra_attributes.freeMemory="525728"
      

      and the Hubitat device shows:

      60812ba1-6200-4e3e-8ee5-2ebb0346d487-image.png

      So the second data point should have been saved in the database as '525728' but instead it saved the previous value of 526192.

      Looking back at the annotated Grafana graph I can see the same thing happened with the earlier pairs of points... the second point was the same value as the first, and then there was no more data logged until the next Reactor restart.

        Checking the logs would be useful here (again: not seeing what you expect? Look at the logs.). Also you haven't shown your queries in Grafana. If you've got mean() or other aggregates in the query, or anything in group by, the presentation is not a representation of the raw feed. Remove all aggregates and groups to make sure you are looking at the raw data. Can be very confusing otherwise. On the road, won't be much responding to this more until I return around 3/20.

          @toggledbits I wasn't expecting a reply until you got back from vacation and handled other higher priority things, but I'll try to add the additional information now:

          What I'm expecting is that each time the data on the Hubitat Hub Information device changes, that the values for that I added in my reactor.yaml file (cpu5Min, cpuPct, freeMemory) will be written to the influx database. This is what it was doing up until two days ago, and I think the change in behavior matches up to when I upgraded to 22067.

          The Grafana queries are not using aggregates, nor was the direct query I ran from Influx via the command line, but I should have posted the query I used to pull the data. Here is data I just pulled directly from Influx using a command prompt, filtering on only one hub to make it simpler:

          > select * from x_hubitat_extra_attributes where entity = 'hubitat>483' order by time desc limit 6
          name: x_hubitat_extra_attributes
          time                controller cpu5Min cpuPct entity      freeMemory name
          ----                ---------- ------- ------ ------      ---------- ----
          1646918045910000000 hubitat    0.23    5.75   hubitat>483 324088     Hub information
          1646918032714000000 hubitat    0.23    5.75   hubitat>483 324088     Hub information
          1646916245576000000 hubitat            3      hubitat>483 325848     Hub information
          1646916119494000000 hubitat            3      hubitat>483 325848     Hub information
          1646914445106000000 hubitat    0.11    2.75   hubitat>483 325904     Hub information
          1646914238104000000 hubitat    0.11    2.75   hubitat>483 325904     Hub information
          

          Starting from the bottom of the list with the oldest two records, they are about 4 minutes apart but show the exact same numbers.

          The next two records again are about 4 minutes apart and show the same numbers.

          The top two records are about 1 minute apart and show the same numbers.

          Between each pair of logged values I restarted Reactor. On the last set - the top two in this list - I was watching the Reactor Entities screen and saw that the Hub Information entity updated at the time the last data point was stored, but the values were NOT 0.23, 5.75, and 324088.

          I can upload logs when you get back. I looked at the times in the log when this data was stored and I don't see anything related to Influx. I do see the updates coming from the Hub Information device.

          I was able to find the logs corresponding to the two records in the middle (showing 325848 as the freeMemory)

          The timestamp on the older one converts to: Thursday, March 10, 2022 12:41:59.494 PM

          In the logs I find the value for the freeMemory a few minutes earlier at 12:39:05Z. I think the time discrepancy is because I restarted Reactor between when the value was logged and when it got written to the database. When Reactor started up, it wrote the most recent value to Influx.

          [latest-22067]2022-03-10T12:39:05.568Z <HubitatController#hubitat:5:HubitatController.js:641> HubitatController#hubitat received DEVICE event [Object]{ "source": "DEVICE", "name": "freeMemory", "displayName": "Hub information", "value": "325848", "type": "null", "unit": "KB", "deviceId": 483, "hubId": 0, "installedAppId": 0, "descriptionText": "null" }

          The next record from the database with the same values has a timestamp that converts to Thursday, March 10, 2022 12:44:05.576 PM

          That matches up in the logs with this:

          [latest-22067]2022-03-10T12:44:05.632Z <HubitatController#hubitat:5:HubitatController.js:641> HubitatController#hubitat received DEVICE event [Object]{ "source": "DEVICE", "name": "freeMemory", "displayName": "Hub information", "value": "325884", "type": "null", "unit": "KB", "deviceId": 483, "hubId": 0, "installedAppId": 0, "descriptionText": "null" }
          [latest-22067]2022-03-10T12:44:05.633Z <HubitatController#hubitat:5:HubitatController.js:643> HubitatController#hubitat ws DEVICE event device 483 freeMemory="325884"
          [latest-22067]2022-03-10T12:44:05.633Z <HubitatController#hubitat:INFO> HubitatController#hubitat fast update Entity#hubitat>483 event freeMemory="325884"
          

          So at 12:44:05 I'm expecting the freeMemory written to the database to be 325884, but the database query returned 325848, the previous value from a few minutes earlier in the logs.

          The next instance of the hub freeMemory in the logs is at 12:49:05Z

          [latest-22067]2022-03-10T12:49:05.763Z <HubitatController#hubitat:5:HubitatController.js:641> HubitatController#hubitat received DEVICE event [Object]{ "source": "DEVICE", "name": "freeMemory", "displayName": "Hub information", "value": "325664", "type": "null", "unit": "KB", "deviceId": 483, "hubId": 0, "installedAppId": 0, "descriptionText": "null" }
          [latest-22067]2022-03-10T12:49:05.764Z <HubitatController#hubitat:5:HubitatController.js:643> HubitatController#hubitat ws DEVICE event device 483 freeMemory="325664"
          [latest-22067]2022-03-10T12:49:05.765Z <HubitatController#hubitat:INFO> HubitatController#hubitat fast update Entity#hubitat>483 event freeMemory="325664"
          

          There is no corresponding record in the Influx database. I would expect an entry with freeMemory of 325664.

          There are additional logs showing the Hubitat Hub Information device updating values every few minutes, but nothing was added to the database until after 1:13:52Z when I restarted Reactor. Then I got the two entries showing a freeMemory of 324088, but as with the middle two record in the query results, the second one of the pair is wrong. The last (top of the list) data in the database shows freeMemory of 324088 and its timestamp converts to Thursday, March 10, 2022 1:14:05.910 PM

          The log shows:

          [latest-22067]2022-03-10T13:14:05.943Z <HubitatController#hubitat:5:HubitatController.js:641> HubitatController#hubitat received DEVICE event [Object]{ "source": "DEVICE", "name": "freeMemory", "displayName": "Hub information", "value": "323712", "type": "null", "unit": "KB", "deviceId": 483, "hubId": 0, "installedAppId": 0, "descriptionText": "null" }
          [latest-22067]2022-03-10T13:14:05.945Z <HubitatController#hubitat:5:HubitatController.js:643> HubitatController#hubitat ws DEVICE event device 483 freeMemory="323712"

          I would have expected the database entry at 13:14:05Z to show 323712 as the freeMemory value.

          I haven't restarted Reactor since then, and as I type this several hours later, no new data for these attributes has made it into the database.

            I'm not quite out the door yet; I was just leaving ample room for packing, and whatever support my older son needed for a final exam he was taking today.

            So I see two things contributing here:

            1. There is an opportunity for a value change that occurs during a loss of connection to the hub and a reconnect to be missed; that is, if Reactor stays running, but the hub is rebooted, Reactor may miss a value that changes (and free memory would almost certainly change there). This would be due to the new fast update behavior, so a new issue. That will take a code fix, which I can safely and quickly make in the next hour or so.

            2. The event websocket is sending all values for updated (Hubitat) attributes as strings. That's disappointing. That will make InfluxDB choke, because the values given by Maker API, which are the first values inserted into the database, will be numbers, thereby cementing the type for that field in InfluxDB. Thereafter, the attempt to insert a string will fail because the data types don't match. This is a chronic InfluxDB problem, and I actually made some code changes to the integration about a month ago to help get around that problem when it comes up. So, you will need to modify your InfluxDB plugin config to look more like this:

                    x_hubitat_extra_attributes:
                      attributes:
                        cpu5Min:
                          type: number
                        cpuPct:
                          type: number
                        freeMemory:
                          type: number
                        uptime:
                          type: number
            

            This will make the plugin coerce (if it can) each value to its "proper" type before handing it off to InfluxDB. You can do this now, and it should have an immediate effect on your updates. The code change mentioned above (item 1) handles a rarer circumstance that you could also see, but is probably not the major contributor to what is going on for you today. Try this change out, and see if it helps. I expect it will. If so, you may want to consider adding this to other attributes being exported to InfluxDB.

            I can do more in HubitatController to make sure the types are properly converted when they come in from the event websocket, but that's a bigger change that I'm reticent to make right now. The code change to fix the restart update is small, so I'm more confident in making that change today, but I'll leave the rest for later. The type configuration should work around that issue pretty effectively until I get back.

              Just realized I was only looking in the Hubitat.log file, which we turned on while trying to troubleshoot something else, and not in the reactor.log file... Ugh... need more coffee before trying to troubleshoot. Apologies for making this more difficult by missing that. In the reactor.log files I found the Influx errors saying that the database field was type 'float' and the data from the hub was 'string'. If I had posted that at the top of this thread, it would be a much shorter read.

              After changing the attributes as you showed above I'm now getting correct data into the database and I'm not seeing errors in reactor.log.

                What you posted was great, and I was able to see the string data in the events, so clue attained, and that's a win. We'll fix it right when I get back.
