For being a "Developer preview" it is quite solid. After some minor issues yesterday and have been solved with 21051, I have re-built most of my Reactor-sensors in Vera in the MSR and it is working fine. They are now disabled in the Vera and let's see how it goes in the coming days

I have this group:
"OKforLarm":
name: OK för Larm
select:
- include_controller: vera
- include_capability: door_sensor
filter_expression: entity.attributes.door_sensor.state
It contains the entities I expect but behaves a bit odd. When I open vera>device_10097 the entity attribute door_sensor.state changes to true but it won't show up as member in the group, when I also open vera>device_10095 they both shows as members and when I close vera>device_10095 it disappear from the group but when I close vera>device_10097 it lingers in the group until I restart Reactor.
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.
Hey @toggledbits I'm back to trying to optimize a couple of things based on dynamic group.
First of all, I think I found a typo in the doc:
primary_attribute: "binary_sensor.state"
primary_attribute_value: |
d = false;
each id in members: d = getEntity(id)?.attributes?.power_switch?.state or d,
d
I think the correct code snippet is d = false,
All that said, my use case for dynamic groups is to group 3 different climate devices, so I could easily command them at the same time. Commands are good, but sometimes I want to check if any of the devices are on, and that's easily done with a similar snippet as the one you have in the docs. But this is limited to the primary attribute, while I want to have any of the attributes in the group to be driven by a similar logic (while all are null in the group). ie, access hvac_control.mode and see if any of the unit is set to cool, or heat. Is that possible, without re-defining an expression in each of my rules? Thanks!
Love openLuup - it just keeps working perfectly.
I started looking at trying to add a gen4 Shelly device to the Shelly plugin via L_ShellyBridge.lua. The plugin is a little uncooked (no rudeness intended), so a bit of a rabbit hole for me.
All of a sudden no console pages available in either Firefox or Chrome. AltUI works perfectly and all the log files indicate no errors. openLuup still running everything works as it should - just no console pages.
I possibly screwed something up but any recently changes files show no problems. The original/ backup of L_ShellyBridge.lua was reinstated but still no console.
Bit stumped on this one. Not sure how to debug. Any ideas?
Hey @toggledbits
One thing that bothers me while doing work on new systems/new features, is that I cannot copy&paste actions, and I cannot drag&drop between set and resets.
#1 is for when I want to copy an action between different rules opened in two separate browser windows, while #2 is when I just need to flip a bunch of actions in the reset, or move some logic back and forth.
Both will be appreciated, but I understand the technical challenges. Thanks!
I'm currently on version 26011. I understand that the aarch64 image is no longer supported. So, I therefore need to update to the ARM64 image. Can anyone possibly suggest how I update my docker compose.yaml file (see below). Ideally I'd like to keep my existing reactions etc. rather than start from scratch.
# Multi-System Reactor template docker-compose.yml (version 22160)
#
# Change the lines indicated by "DO"...

services:
reactor:
container_name: reactor
environment:
# DO change the TZ: line to set your local time zone.

TZ: GB
#
# DO NOT change this path. Your directory location is in "source" below.

# DO change the image below to the one you are using (e.g. armv7l or aarch64 for RPi 4)

It appears that Ezlo is going to new levels of paid subscription for cloud services supporting Vera hubs. I have to congratulate them. It will soon be 8 years since Ezlo acquired Vera, and despite their purported financial and "intellectual" capital, they have to date not produced a viable full replacement for Vera. Now they are going to charge extra for services for a platform that they stopped updating years ago.
If you know anyone who hasn't yet fully moved on from Captain Ahab's White Whale Chase, please remind them that my Decouple project is still up on Github to decouple a Vera Plus/Secure/Edge from Vera/Ezlo's cloud services. Veras have been said to misbehave when they can't reach the mother ship.
I have also written my first new Vera plugin in... six years? more?... the AlertPushover project will send Vera hub alerts to Pushover, so you can still get messages generated by your Vera hub without paying for Ezlo's cloud service. It's crude but functional (i.e. better than nothing/worth every penny paid).
These two projects won't replace the functionality of their cloud service and app for those who need those things. But any that don't, this may help bridge the gap. Hopefully these stragglers who have waited so long and been disappointed so often will get the idea that it's time to move on.
If you are using the armv7l docker image, the OpenJS Foundation that publishes node is no longer producing 32-bit builds as of v24. That means the last supported LTS version of node for armv7l is v22, which will go End-of-Life in May 2027.
Therefore, the Reactor armv7l image is now deprecated and will only be produced until node v22 goes EOL, and I will not publish armv7l images beyond that date.
If you are running an RPi 3 or earlier with Reactor, you are on this image, and will need to upgrade hardware to a 64-bit model and use the arm64 image. If you need help getting it done, ask in this category.

Multi-System Reactor Developer Preview AVAILABLE@rafale77 said in Multi-System Reactor Developer Preview AVAILABLE:
"The rPi4 is a bit tricky to boot from SATA but it can be done and if you want a reliable system, you should definitely go down that route."
Today with an upgraded system, since the RPi firmware has native support, it is fairly straight forward. There are tons of guides and videos online to help.

MSR Backup -
How do I "else"@librasun I have actually moved most of my Reactor rules (3/4) by making new ones MSR were I could iron out some of the conceptual mistakes I made when I stated to use Reactor in Vera. MSR is rather stable now but I understand that you want to wait for how to import. My next step is to integrate it with InfluxdB.
-
How do I "else"I want my sensors to be stored in a database for further analysis/joy (Temp, Watts what ever). I guess you are right that it could be done with some additional functionality in MSR but I think @toggledbits bits in some post that it is not in the roadmap. Thinking ...

How to auto start on Rpi reboot ?With the newer firmwares to the RPi it is fairly straight forward to use a SSD since it has native support now. Not that much alchemy anymore.

MSR Backup@librasun Same here, I have now transferred all my old Reactor routines from Vera and it is looking good. The old ones in Vera are now disabled and they are actually running on my RPi4 as the production unit for my home, although @toggledbits sais you should not :). Forward to the HA integration

Can MSR be connected to more than one Vera controller?@librasun I hope that this will not be high on the priority list, since it is a paid cloud service. We need to get our local services MSR and HASS etc. working as intended. There are still some basic functionalities to iron out. I have started to realize in my Vera-MSR-HASS home it is starting to get quite complicated to know how I should use it in the most effective way since entities and rules now are starting to get spread out.
