Hi @toggledbits it is possible to have an array in the following way

["Window 1"]["Status On"]
["Window 2"]["Status On"]
["Window 3"]["Status Off"]
["Window 4"]["Status On"]

That is, bidirectional.

How would this array be loaded? Normally we use Variable = ${{ ["Window 1", "Window 2", "Window 3", "Window 4"] }}, how would the array pair be loaded?.

Then the use, how would be a looping where I want to ask who has "Status On" and it returns me a new array with the part 1, that is the list of "Window"?

Or another search, I provide the information of the content of part 1, as "Window 2" and it would return me an array with the part 2 "Satus On".

Is it possible to have something like this?

Could you give the examples?

Thanks.

I’ve just started to have a play with iOS Shortcut and one of my test cases is to see if I can do the following

select a a file (.lua or .txt) on my iPad extract the entire script/contents encode the data obtained append the encode content to the end of the RunLua action. call the URL http://myIP/data_request?id=lu_action&serviceId=urn:micasaverde-com:serviceId:HomeAutomationGateway1&action=RunLua&Code=

Below is a screenshot of the workflow I have built in Shortcuts, which seems pretty straight forward, and it does generate a encoded URL, however the actual request itself does not complete. I get an ‘OK’ response back eventually, but the code is not actioned, and the logs don’t seem to tell me anything..

The code I’m extracting from the Lua file works fine in the test Lua window, so i’m not sure what’s occurring differently, between the two routes, maybe it’s the encryption being used ?..

Is anyone able to help me test this, and see if they can generate a long / multi line RunLua encoded URL (if not via Shortcut, then by some that can help me with the root cause to then address that in Shortcut

I have 3 outside temperatures and I would like to pick the middle value of the 3 to use as the outside air temperature for calculations and logic.

The obvious, to me, mid() function does not seem to exist. What function can I use to pick the middle of the three values?

Thanks,

My trusty vera plus is starting to have some issues that are making me think that it is about to die. i now get constant luup reloads even though i've moved almost everything except for z-wave devices and the iphone locator off that machine. it is even booting off an ssd drive to minimize wear and tear on the internal memory. I've moved all my logic off box to MSR, so it is just a glorified zwave adapter. I would love to hear any ideas that would make moving 60ish devices off that box to something else as painless as possible. the thought of excluding and including the devices sends shivers down my spine, so anything that helps me migrate the network would be greatly welcomed. anyone have any suggestions?

I'm probably going to release my first pass at the MQTTController for Reactor (aka MSR) this week. It doesn't yet intrinsically know about a lot of devices, but you can train it for pretty much anything, I think, and it would be great if a couple of our heavy MQTT users could help check it out and maybe help contribute some device templates.

I'm hoping to package it up for mid-week, assuming the rest of life stays on track.

Success factors for the test: solid familiarity with MQTT, a big mix of devices, and comfortable editing YAML (for creating the templates/mappings).

Whenerver openLuup restarts or reloads Luup MQTTController can't reconnect and I have to restart Reactor to solve it.

Feedback / issues with openLuup's built-in MQTT server

I have multiple sensors connected to via Bluetooth to a Tasmota device.
All sensors report their values in the SENSOR topic, how do I map those to individual entities?

With the boom of video doorbells with the likes of Ring, Skybell and Next doorbell cams, I came to the realization that I did not want to be cloud dependent for this type service for long term reliability, privacy and cost.
I finally found last year a wifi video doorbell which is cost effective and support RTSP and now ONVIF streaming:

The RCA HSDB2A which is made by Hikvision and has many clones (EZViz, Nelly, Laview). It has an unusual vertical aspect ratio designed to watch packages delivered on the floor....
It also runs on 5GHz wifi which is a huge advantage. I have tried running IPCams on 2.4GHz before and it is a complete disaster for your WIFI bandwidth. Using a spectrum analyzer, you will see what I mean. It completely saturates the wifi channels because of the very high IO requirements and is a horrible design. 2.4GHz gets range but is too limited in bandwidth to support any kind of video stream reliably... unless you have a dedicated SSID and channel available for it.

The video is recorded locally on my NVR. I was able to process the stream from it on Home Assistant to get it to do facial recognition and trigger automations on openLuup like any other IPCams. This requires quite a bit of CPU power to do...
I also get snapshots through push notifications through pushover on motion like all of my other IPcams. Movement detection is switched on and off by openLuup... based on house mode.

I can no longer access the Rule Sets menu after upgrading to build 21275. Nothing happens when I click on Rule Sets. Other menu options work fine. I have cleared history, hard refreshed the browser, Rebooted. Works fine in Firefox and google chrome. I have always used Safari.
Suggestions?

Safari for Mac version 15.0
MSR Version 21275-df3d784

I have a couple of calendar URLs I’m trying to call, and both work when i enter the URL into the browser, however when I try to call them via Lua and http(s).request, only one of them works ? Please could someone help me understand why, and what needs to be done differently to make the other one work ?

local socket = require 'socket' local http = require "socket.http" local ssl = require 'ssl' local https = require 'ssl.https' local calendarUria = "https://ics.fixtur.es/v2/ipswich-town.ics" local calendarUrib = "https://calendar.google.com/calendar/ical/en-gb.uk%23holiday%40group.v.calendar.google.com/public/basic.ics" print("Fixtur.es Football (URL A) returns the following?") local responseBodya, responseCodea, responseHeadersa = https.request(calendarUria) print(responseBodya, responseCodea, responseHeadersa) print("Google UK Holidays (URL B) returns the following?") local responseBodyb, responseCodeb, responseHeadersb = https.request(calendarUrib) print(responseBodyb, responseCodeb, responseHeadersb)

If you run the code above, only the second Google (URL `B) returns anything..

Hi, in Reactor there is "SendData" actions to change value for device's configurations without to use Lua. Is this possible also for MSR?
If not, which is the possible way to do it?

Thanks in advance

Goal: xmas tree/mantel lights go on with outdoor lights (if mode = Evening) but shut off at 23:00 whilst outdoor remain until sunrise -20. Tree and mantel should only go one when someone is home, outdoor go on no matter what, hence the mode trigger.

Configurations
Ruleset "Arm For Xmas" triggers = date ranges (all vetted/proven in prior years, good to go here) and sunset/sunrise:

Ruleset "Xmas tree/mantel lights" triggers =

Screen Shot 2021-11-21 at 12.07.29 PM.png

Seeking confirmation that my use of start time from the "Arm For" and end time from the "Xmas tree/mantel" scene will play well together.

Noticed in the last few nights that my Global Reaction to turn on a mere six lights in the evenings the same two devices no longer turn on. One is a dimming smart bulb, the other is a wall outlet.

This has been running flawlessly for months - just in the last few nights I've noticed these two devices being left behind and yes, it's always these two devices only.

"What changed?"

No Hubitat firmware updates No new devices added to Hubitat list itemTwo MSR updates (the last two, I keep up with the latest) list itemHome Assistant releases (should have zero bearing, HA is nothing more than pretty dashboards) list itemAdded MQTT to MSR

I did do a z-wave "repair" last night and am waiting to see if this helps.

Is there any maximum or cap on number of devices that should be included in a Global Reaction?

*Marked as solved as the question asked was answered. The issue persists but the question was answered.

Hey guys ... I've started creating a Docker container for Z-Way.

I was previously using the Razberry2 but found it a bit slow on my Raspberry Pi 3. I could upgrade to a Raspberry Pi 4 but since I already run a dedicated Linux server and many Docker containers I thought it might make more sense to run Z-Way on there.

GitHub: https://github.com/sofakng/docker-zway
DockerHub: https://hub.docker.com/repository/docker/sofakng/zway

This container is based on other containers that are no longer updated: (ruimarinho/docker-z-way) and (EugenMayer/docker-image-zway)

I'd love to hear feedback and any improvements that might be needed.

One thing I want to add immediately is to separate the configuration files from the Docker volume but it looks like Z-Way has several user configuration files/directories?

$ZWAY_DIR/config/Configuration.xml $ZWAY_DIR/config/Rules.xml $ZWAY_DIR/config/maps $ZWAY_DIR/config/zddx $ZWAY_DIR/automation/user_syscommands $ZWAY_DIR/automation/storage $ZWAY_DIR/automation/userModules $ZWAY_DIR/htdocs/smarthome/user $ZWAY_DIR/config.xml

I have a legacy Vera system that in my home and I need to add a few devices to a cottage on my property. The Vera zwave won't see devices that far away. Both the house and cottage are on the same LAN. Can I bridged an Ezlo Plus to my existing Vera plus and if so are there instructions?

Morning all. Hope all are well. Been a bit of a trying time here, but nothing we can't deal with....
.....apart from this!

My coffee grinder went punk yesterday (wasn't even being used) and took out the main breakers. Once it was isolated I got everything back on line, except on TKB smart plug which was in the same double socket as the grinder.

OpenLuup claims it's failed. Z-wave server can't see it but it responds to the button pushes physically as I'd expect. (i.e. the socket turns on and off, and the LED flashes to indicate it's in inclusion / exclusion mode)

My plan is to see if I can exclude it then re-include it in z-wave server. If that doesn't work then I'll bin it, but if it does work can I then re-number it to match the original device ID and not have to trawl through my reactors? Any chance?
TIA

Hi all! I am almost relieved from Vera 🙏. Around 65 decices to go. Of which some are on very hard places (under floor etc.). Is there any way to easily get the vera devices on the zwave network without repairing them per piece?

I think I knowthe answer, but I am asking 😉

@toggledbits

I would like to consult, and maybe even suggest, the possibility that all devices have the common attribute binary_sensor.state.

I am in the process of switching from Vera to Hubitat, and I see huge benefits in Hubitat having very few attributes available to the devices, which makes the device lighter, and faster in my opinion.

But one point that bothers me is for example plug and switch has binary_sensor.state which basically replicates the state of the Tripped Vera.

In Hubitat motion devices don't have it (similar Tripped), the status is motion_sensor.state, in this case my suggestion is if it would be possible that MSR creates in these devices the attribute binary_sensor.state and equals automatically the motion_sensor.state.

Expandindo a solicitacao (asking is not prohibited 🙂 ) to thermostats for example, I imagine that the hvac_control.mode attribute, other than "off" which means the device is "on (heat, cool)", also has the binary_sensor.state set to "true" (heat, cool) for "on" and "false" for "off".

In summary, regardless of the hub, or type of device a standard attribute to indicate and command the "on" or "off" status, similar to Tripped that has Vera that creates a standard of the devices.

Thanks.

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.
