[Reactor] Help with screne controller cycling logic
therealdbT
I’ve added a couple of Shelly Wave i4 as scene controllers and I’m planning to add more, since I can just use standard buttons instead of battery-powered scene controllers, which also looks better aesthetically. That said, I’m struggling to figure out how to write a simple rule that cycles between states every time I press a button. Example: Light 1 ON → OFF, then Light 2 ON → OFF. The part I can’t get right is handling the case where Light 1 or Light 2 might already be ON independently of the rule. Maybe it’s just too much sun and relaxation clouding my brain, but any hint would be appreciated.

Expose MSR entities
CatmanV2C
Probably a really dumb question. Currently I am using the owntracks_sensor for tracking phones being in region in MSR and it works great. Digging around with Home Assistant and toying with some dashboards, is there any way of exposing that sensor to HA trivially? I could set MSR to trip a virtual switch in OpenLuup which can then be exposed to HA (with all my other Vera devices) but that feels a bit in-elegant if I can do it directly. Any thoughts? Apologies if the ask is not clear/ TIA C

Comment in Globa Expressions
Tom_DT
I have several Global Expressions that are set by a rule so the definition area is blank. I'd like to add a comment in this area that explains what is setting the value. Commenting in this area breaks the remote setting. Any way to document what is setting the GE?

Stop the MSR by an external switch on Hubitat.
wmarcolinW
Use case: When performing home maintenance, such as air conditioning, I want all rules involving air conditioning to be disabled. To do this, to day, I have a virtual switch that I placed within all rules involving air conditioning, meaning that if I turn it off, none of them work. Then another situation: the water pump system and garden irrigation, another switch. In short, I had to create several virtual switches in Hubitat to disable rules in MSR. Unfortunately, however, I was unable to cover all scenarios, so I wondered if it would be possible for MSR to support a virtual MSR switch, which, when configured in the reactor settings, would function as a general on/off switch for MSR. If it is configured and turned off, the entire rules and actions in MSR stops working, except for the status change reading process, specifically for this switch, which, when turned on, would restart the MSR. Would it be possible to do something like this? Any recommendations from the experts?

Unofficial thread for compatibility
tunnusT
As there are statements about compatibility for home assistant versions in MSR new version announcements (e.g. "HassController: Bless Hass to 2025.7.3"), I thought it would be good idea to track other controllers as well. As an example, I can confirm that build "latest-25208-c53e8513" works with Hubitat Elevation C-8 platform version 2.4.2.134 using Maker API.

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 foolishly let my system wipe all cookies this morning and with it my settings for my MSR home page. Once logged back in I can no longer remove errant panes nor is the + available to add new ones. Brave Browser v1.80.122 (Jul 16, 2025) What have I done?! Will check other browsers on my M1. UPDATE: Safari exhibits same behaviour.

Way to search for rules (rule state) in other rules
T
@toggledbits, not sure if this is a feature request or I'm using the search tool wrong. You have a "Search for rule" in the Rules Set tab in MSR. It works nicely to find a rule and bring up said rule, but can it/could it be used for as a "where used?" global search? For instance, I have a fairly large set of rules, divided up into 10 different rulesets. There's easily a hundred individual rules, and many of the rules have Rule State triggers, which of course refer to other rules. Amongst my troubleshooting today, I came across what may have been a duplicate or troubleshooting attempt, but I can't tell if it's actually used as a Rule State in another rule without opening each rule that I suspect it may be a part of. Thanks.

Links to MSR from HA

Wiring Samotech SM308-S into light fitting
F
Hi Smart Home Community. I have used a Sonos inline WiFi switch to make one of my light fittings smart, but it requires a hard reset for WiFi changes, plus it isn't zigbee compatible, which means I can't use the Hue app to control it with the rest of the lights. To that end I bought a Samotech SM308-S as it is recommended as the better than the Sonos equivalent. I am however not exactly sure how to wire it in. The manual is available here Can anyone help me by clarifying which ports I need to use, and whether I should be using the live or switched live line for live etc. I will be keeping using standard switches for a while, although hope to upgrade to tap dials once I have all the fittings upgraded. Thanks

  • Openluup - verabridge can not load devices.

    Just wanted to add that my Vera Bridges stopped working, I can’t be sure exactly when, maybe after a reboot ? But wanted to share here as they were working fine..

    The Variable for the RemotePort on both is /port_3480

    Updating to :3480 fixes it..

    @akbooer - not sure why this worked first and then stopped..

  • Why different types of Triggers within openLuup & ALTUI
    parkercP parkerc

    Sorry if this has been covered before, just curious why triggers in openluup are not consistent..

    I looked at a scene i’d created a while back via ALTUI using the Console view and noticed it didn’t show any Triggers, which was strange as it was my main front door event 🙂 . So I added the door tripped trigger again, but I’ve just noticed I now how two tiggers using this view.

    In ALTUI it shows this.

  • OpenLuup : Loading Global Modules
    parkercP parkerc

    Thanks @akbooer,

    OK to confirm, my current xxpushover.lua module has mainly global functions e.g.

    function push_specific(apptoken, title, device, message, priority, url, urltitle)
    	local status = https.request ( "https://api.pushover.net/1/messages.json" , "token="..apptoken.."&user="..usertoken.."&device="..device.."&message="..message.."&title="..title.."&priority="..priority.."&timestamp="..os.time().."&url="..url.."&url_title="..urltitle)
    
    luup.log(" <<<< - xxpushover module loaded - >>>>> ")
    
    

    I should change these to local functions, and add the return table to the end..

    local function push_specific(apptoken, title, device, message, priority, url, urltitle)
    	local status = https.request ( "https://api.pushover.net/1/messages.json" , "token="..apptoken.."&user="..usertoken.."&device="..device.."&message="..message.."&title="..title.."&priority="..priority.."&timestamp="..os.time().."&url="..url.."&url_title="..urltitle)

  • OpenLuup : Loading Global Modules
    parkercP parkerc

    It’s been a while since I looked at openLuup as it had been running nicely and quietly in the background doing some basic tasks. With my VeraPlus looking like it’s finally succumbing to old age, I want to shift a number of the global module I have over to openLuup.

    To do this, I have added the files (example would be xxpushover.lua to the cmh-ludl folder and the following to the startup

    require “xxpushover”

    The xxpushover.lua file itself starts with the following..

    module("xxpushover", package.seeall)

    And I always have a line in these files to allow me to check it’s been read in the start up related logs, which in this case it is..

    The challenge I’m having is that when I try to call any of the functions within the module, it returns the following error..

    "[string "ALTUI - LuaRunHandler"]:1: attempt to index global 'xxpushover' (a nil value)”

    I’m no doubt missing something obvious, can anyone help me find out what it is ? Many thanks

    Thanks @akbooer , I’ll make those updates..

    For me, the console is a great little compact dashboard, which for sensors provides some nice addional information.

    If I can help/test anything let me know.

    If/when you have time, it’lll be nice if the console could have its own Favicon assigned (http://www.maxi-pedia.com/Favicon+how+to+create) 🙂

    That’s great news, many thanks @akbooer (ALTUI never worked properly on my iPad, so It’s nice to know there are options) and I love the simplicity of the console...

    As I’m running the openLuup docker instance (@vwout ) how do I benefit from this recent update, are there specific file I can update ?

    Will console become the default UI now, rather than ALTUI..(how best do we switch)?

    Also not sure if you are aware, but the ‘bypass’ option on the console view appears as a power symbol (example below)..

    Hi @akbooer

    Just bringing this over as suggested..

    I’ve started to use the console view a lot more, mainly for it’s look and simplicity , but I noticed it does not do any live updates compared to ALTUI, you have to do a full browser reload. Is that by design, or is mine not working?

    Also if I want to go strait to the console view, rather than into ALTUI, I recall seeing something abut altering that in the guide by for the life of me I can’t find it. Is it possible to do, if so how would I do that..

    You suggested this was something you were looking at ? Also you said You don't need a "full browser reload", just click on the display menu item to refresh the screen. - what do you mean by `display menu?

    It’s clear I’m not getting the content sent in the right format/structure, but I cannot find any guidance that clearly explains how to construct a multi-part form submissions via Lua code..

    Hoping someone can help…

  • Lua - multi-part/form submission (Paperless-ngx API)
    parkercP parkerc

    Hi

    I’ve been investing a lot of time recently trying to digitise everything I can, and my current adventure is with all my paper documents.

    My tool of choice is Paperless-ngx, which so far is an amazing open source solution, and highly recommended if you’re interest in such a thing…

    Such a move to Paperless would not be complete without some form of integration into Vera / openLuup, and thankfully it has a nice Rest API (https://paperless-ngx.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html) I can use. So far I’ve been able to make use the GET requests, to provide document counts etc., but it’s the mutipart/form data piece where I’m struggling..

    The Curl command to upload a document, is as follows

    curl -H "Authorization: Basic Y2hyaXM62tgbsgjunotmeY2hyaXNob3N0aW5n" -F "title=Companies House File 10" -F "correspondent=12" -F "document=@/mnt/nas/10.pdf" http://192.168.102.134:8777/api/documents/post_document/
    

    But, I’d like to know how to do this with Lua code, more just to help me in my Lua learning curve, and what I thought would be reasonably straight forward thing to do, has turned out to be quite the opposite 🙂 Sending a multipart form data submission via http.request, is not as straight forward as I hoped. If anyone has any time to help, I’d appreciate some guidance on what I’m missing with the following, as based on the feedback, it looks like it not seeing the file (which I think I’ve confirmed by trying to sending both the curl and Lua commands to httbin.org ) …

    local http = require("socket.http")
    local ltn12 = require("ltn12")
    local mime = require("mime")
    local lfs = require("lfs")
    
    local username = "username"
    local password = "password"
    
    local httpendpoint = 'http://httpbin.org/post'
    local filepath = "/mnt/nas/10.pdf"
    local file = io.open(filepath, "rb")
    local contents = file:read( "*a" )
    
    -- https://stackoverflow.com/questions/3508338/what-is-the-boundary-in-multipart-form-data
    
    local boundary = "-----BoundaryePkpFF7tjBAqx29L"
    local send = "--"..boundary..
                "\r\nContent-Disposition: form-data; title='Companies House File'\r\n"
    			.."----"..boundary..
    			"\r\nContent-Disposition: form-data; document="..filepath..
                "\r\nContent-type: application/pdf".."\r\n"
    			..contents.."\r\n"
    			.."------"..boundary.."--\r\n"
    
    -- Execute request (returns response body, response code, response header)
    
    local resp = {}
    local body, code, headers, status = http.request {
        url = httpendpoint,
        method = 'POST',
        headers = {
    		["Authorization"] = "Basic " .. (mime.b64(username ..":" .. password)),
    		["Content-Length"] = lfs.attributes(filepath, 'size'),
    		['Content-Type'] = "multipart/form-data; boundary="..boundary,
        },
       -- source = ltn12.source.file( io.open(filepath,"rb") ),
       source = ltn12.source.file( io.open(send) ),
        sink = ltn12.sink.table(resp)
    }
    
    print(body, code, headers, status)
    print(table.concat(resp))
    
    if headers then 
        for k,v in pairs(headers) do 
            print(k,v) 
        end
    end

    Ok, I decided to dive into Robot Vaccum cleaners , so picked up an 2nd hand Roomba e5 and have also got a Deenkee arriving tomorrow (damn you Amazon and your lightening deals !!!)

    Now, I obviously will want to get them both integrated into my Vera/OpenLuup world at some point, and starting with the Roomba, I’ve been trying to get Rest980 up and running (https://github.com/koalazak/rest980)..

    Is anyone already using this to interface with their Roomba ?
    If not, what are people using with their Roombas?

  • Lua : Downloading a file over https
    parkercP parkerc

    Ok, not had much luck with the variations I tried, 😞

    One thing I did notice was that the luasec version on VeraPlus is v0.4 and the openssl version is v1.0.2

    # openssl version
    OpenSSL 1.0.2l  25 May 2017
    

    Checking the luasec guidance here, https://github.com/brunoos/luasec/wiki/LuaSec-1.0.x , that VeraPlus openSSL version supports luasec v 1.0.x ?

    Without being able to install/use Luarocks, any idea how to upgrade from luasec 0.4 to 1.0.x?

    Thanks all..

    Looks like curl is the way to go in situations like this..

    Quick question in regards to being able to do this all in Lua on a VeraPlus, I came across the following bit of code (not sure of the origin, but i can see it specifies a certificate file, is this an option ?

    require("socket")
    local ssl = require("ssl")
    local url = "test"
    
    local params = {
      mode = "client",
      protocol = "tlsv1_2",
      cafile = "/path/to/downloaded/cacert.pem", --<-- added cafile parameters
      verify = "peer", --<-- changed "none" to "peer"
      options = "all",
    }
    
    local conn = socket.tcp()
    conn:connect(url, 443)
    
    -- TLS/SSL initialization
    conn = ssl.wrap(conn, params)
    conn:dohandshake()
    
    conn:send("GET / HTTP/1.1\n\n")
    local line, err = conn:receive()
    print(err or line)
    conn:close()

    Is the lack of TLS 1.2 with Vera addressed with something like this, not sure how this works, but I assume there is a default if something is not specified ?

    local _, code = https.request{
          url = url,
          protocol = "tlsv1_2",
         }
         ResetData()
         Log(" sent data status: " .. code)
    return code

    Sorry, yes this is being done on my VeraPlus, with latest ‘production’ firmware 7.31..

    When I run this, i get nothing back not even an error for the https call.
