Night and day difference for me. I think I was getting a lot of interference in my media closet. Devices were very slow to respond and sometimes not at all. Switched to UZB and used a USB extender to place it a good 5 ft from the location of my pi. Now things are fast and reliable.

@akbooer
I have been messing with this today. I do not currently run openluup through docker so this may not even be the best way to do this but it is what I did to get it up and running and with the ability to easily see and manipulate all openluup files within "File Station" on the synology.

I created three folders on my synology:
/docker/openLuup/cmh-ludl
/docker/openLuup/logs
/docker/openLuup/backups

Then I created three volumes with a bind to the created folders
'openluup-env' bound to '/volume1/docker/openLuup/cmh-ludl'
'openluup-logs' bound to '/volume1/docker/openLuup/logs'
'openluup-backups' bound to '/volume1/docker/openLuup/backup'

I used portianer but you can ssh into your synology and use the command line to create these volumes with the binds, see this

Then I created the container using portainer making sure to set the correct ports and volume mappings, which can also be done in the command line with

docker run -d \
       -v openluup-env:/etc/cmh-ludl/ \
       -v openluup-logs:/etc/cmh-ludl/logs/ \
       -v openluup-backups:/etc/cmh-ludl/backup/ \
       -p 3480:3480
       vwout/openluup:alpine

Hope this helps.

Edit: The binds are not necessary, I only did it to make it easy to access the files. Without the bindings, the volumes are somewhat hidden on synology that is not easily accessible for example at '/volume1/@docker/volumes/openluup-env/_data'

@akbooer said in Delete all device in Room 101:

Yes, absolutely (although I kind of wonder how you reached that figure...!)

The openLuup plugin has an action EmptyRoom101 with the parameter named AreYouSure which requires the value yes (to save nasty accidents.)

Thanks. I see it. They are all old verabridge devices ( and some z-way devices that I had to repair) that are no longer needed as I am fully cloned to z-way and mostly vera free (still have two zigbee door sensors on vera).

Parameters of devices can be set through the api using this URL

YOURIP:8083/ZWaveAPI/Run/devices[DEVICE#].instances[0].Configuration.Set(PARAMETER,PARAMETER_VALUE,size=PARAMETER_SIZE)

Replace:
YOURIP with the IP of Z-way for example 192.168.1.2.
DEVICE# with the Z-way device # of the devices parameter you want to change
Parameter with the parameter # you want to change
VALUE with the Parameter value
PARAMETER_SIZE with the size of the parameter (should be 1, 2, or 4)

An example to change device 51's parameter 3 to a value of 1 with a size of 1:

192.168.1.2:8083/ZWaveAPI/Run/devices[51].instances[0].Configuration.Set(3,1,size=1)

To run it in Luup code

local status, result = luup.inet.wget("192.168.1.2:8083/ZWaveAPI/Run/devices[51].instances[0].Configuration.Set(3,1,size=1)", 5)

@toggledbits said in MSR in Alpine Docker:

OK. Let's see how this does in your hands. I've installed and uninstalled 3-4 times and it seems OK. In the bug tracker, go to #58, in the notes you'll find a download link and draft installation instructions. You can use the "monitor" function to follow that PR (emails you when things are posted--might get chatty with a lot of people in there, though). Please use that PR for reporting install-related issues.

This loads up nicely. Running unconfigured right now. I will transfer over my configs later and test it out.

kfxo

Another good release. Confirming that 0000078 and 0000077 are tested and working on my system.

@rafale77 said in Delete all device in Room 101:

Congrats on the move! Please report back on positive or negative effects.

Will do. Still working through things and figuring stuff out. So far, the experience has been mostly positive with a few minor hiccups. I also have some scripts I wrote that I plan to share that helped ease my transition.

Which synology NAS are you looking at? I have a DS920+ and run MQTT in a docker container. Works great and easy to set up. Some of the lower end ones may not support docker.

kfxo

Spinning up a dedicated VM on my synology right now in anticipation of the first preview. Can't wait!

@perh said in Imperihome - missing devices:

While i wait for a replacement app for my local UI devices, i want to use imperihome as long as I can.. But i'm missing a lot of devices!

All Z-Way bridge devices, all security/smoke and motion sensors (local RFXtrx child devices)..

Found the "include vera bridge" in imperihome.lua, what else could cause this?

I had the same issue. Check that the attribute "disabled" is not set to '1' for the missing devices. See this thread

@toggledbits said in Feature Request: Hass service call action:

Literally, yes, but I'm afraid if I do it, I'll never get things mapped that need to be mapped: if there's a workaround, everyone will use the workaround and never ask for a formal mapping; when the formal mapping is released, they won't change from the workaround.

The beauty would be you would not have to do mapping for many things, but I understand why you would rather have them formally mapped at this stage. Hass moves so fast with integrating (and they already have so many) things that I fear you will never be able to keep up.

At this stage, I'd prefer to run down the mappings that need to be done. It's part of the purpose of this phase of testing. What I would rather do is document how to do mappings and get others to do them and contribute them. Would you be willing to do that?

Yes. I would be willing to learn how to do the mappings and contribute.

kfxo

Is it possible to have an action for the Hass controller that would allow for defining a service call by inputting the desired service and service data parameters? This would provide an easy way to perform services for entities in Hass that are not mapped.

kfxo

@toggledbits This looks great. So much easier then having to write out the http request.

@tarkus said in Running Lua Code ? And watching device properties?:

In preliminary testing the big issue I see with lua in Vera scenes is stability. I tried moving some of my lua into scenes and invoking the scenes thru MSR and everything just became real unstable with Luup restarts.

I think you already discovered the problem. Running the lua through scenes is probably not a good idea. Have you attempted what was suggested by @therealdb in this thread defining a library at startup and calling your lua through that? IMO this is the correct way to do it.

kfxo

Another good release. Confirming that 0000078 and 0000077 are tested and working on my system.

kfxo

That actually makes perfect sense and upon further inspection I see that the timers I was noticing in the logs are with respect to one rule that I had recently turned on that resets often.

kfxo

Im seeing the same as @Matohl . Let me know if you want me to supply some logs too.

@librasun said in Multi-System Reactor Developer Preview AVAILABLE:

IN reading the MSR docs, I see we'll soon have the capability to import backup files saved from a Vera hub's master Reactor device, thereby auto-creating Rulesets on the receiving MSR.

I presume the necessary conversion applet (in the form of a .JS script) will be forthcoming as part of the /tools folder under MSR?

Has anyone tested this feature out yet? I wouldn't mind being a guinea pig, if more data points are required to iron out kinks.

Indeed that feature is already available. I imported close to 400 rules and it has been pretty smooth. We have ironed out a couple bugs already. But as pointed out in the guides, you really got to go through it all and fix some things as you go. My initial plan was to start fresh but I'm glad I didn't as it has saved me a lot of time. If you have a lot to transfer over I would definitely give it a shot.

Just an update, I copied over config and storage directories to the mounted docker volume and Reactor would not start until I also created a 'logs' directory in the mounted docker volume. All looked well after that but going to continue to run it on my Debian VM for now.
