http request action & digest auth
tunnusT
I’m using the HTTP Request action in MSR and need to authenticate against an endpoint that uses HTTP Digest authentication. Now that endpoint was changed to use SHA-256 in digest auth, so I would like to know if MSR supports it, or is it limited to MD5-based digest auth?

Cloning actions in reactions does not work
tunnusT
With build 26140 (on Docker) I'm not able to clone any actions in reactions. Using Chrome if it has any relevance.

Integrations and 'Loaded'
CatmanV2C
Thanks again for the recent release. One thing I wanted to ask about integrations and their 'loaded' condition: Is there something similar that applies to the entire controller? So if I have (for example) a helper in HA that is used to trigger an automation in MSR, is it possible to effectively exclude it until MSR is 'happy' that HA is stable and its values can be trusted? This, actually goes back to the issue I had. I've got a use case where a 30 second delay from triggering is a bit of a PITA (sustained for...) and was just wondering if there's a way of knowing that 'native' HA functions are working correctly. Probably asking wrong, or it's hideously obvious, but... TIA C

Possible mismatch between binary_sensor in HA and MSR
CatmanV2C
Hi. First off this is an unsupported version of HS 2026.5.2 so happy to be told it's that. Currently running latest-26130-3d2a489a on a Debian Buster bare metal VM. I've been working on moving away from OpenLuup completely and up until now have been using some virtual switches t manage things like 'Is there anyone home' I have a binary sensor in HA that provides the same thing binary_sensor.someone_home which appears in MSR as hass>binary_sensor_someone_home HA shows on or off. MSR shows true or false All fine. The odd thing happened after an update of HA and a restart. From HA 13:07:04 it turned off 13:07:11 it turned on However that does not appear to have been reflected in MSR which turned all the heating and so on off as it is supposed to do, and I got all my notifications as I should. Here's a huge log section (sorry) as I wanted to show how MSR identifies that HA is up and running at 12:07:08 (Zulu) but triggers the 'There's no one here' at 12:07:17 some 6 seconds after HA updated to on. Checking in the interface MSR said the status was 'False' while HA stated 'On'

Reactor build 26116: empty group reaction
therealdbT
I have a couple of rules that has group reactions with empty conditions. I notice, in particular on one that's called every 5 secs, that it was not working. I added an empty comment as condition and it started working again. I don't know if saving was enough to "reset" it, but I'm reporting anyway. No errors in the logs, but the MQTT message was not published, so I had an easy path to check the rule. I have others like these, but not easy to test. @toggledbits maybe some stuck status data? (I restarted a couple of times after the last update). Thanks.

Temperature control with TRVs
CatmanV2C
Morning lovely people. Having just had some new rads put in, I dumped the old TRVs for snacky enw Zigbee ones, which work great. Currently my gas boiler has a Horstman Z-wave relay bound to a remote thermostat so only comes on depending on when the thermostat puts out a call for heat Has anyone else got all their rads on TRVs and if so, how are you managing boiler control? I'm thinking about using a Reaction that effectively says 'If any TRV is 'on', turn the boiler on by raising the setpoint on the thermostat' and vice versa. Currently this isn't great as we have two rads (one in the kitchen (which has underfloor heating) and in the hall, (where the remote thermostat is) which don't have TRVs. If I set the thermostat to 25 (say) when a rad calls for heat, those two rooms get roasting no matter what else is going on. So my thoughts are: Add TRVs to these two rads and all will be well. Is this a sensible approach, or is there a better way of doing it? Thanks, as ever! C
General Discussion
Upcoming Storage Change -- Got Back-ups?
toggledbitsT
TL;DR: Format of data in storage directory will soon change. Make sure you are backing up the contents of that directory in its entirety, and you preserve your backups for an extended period, particularly the backup you take right before upgrading to the build containing this change (date of that is still to be determined, but soon). The old data format will remain readable (so you'll be able to read your pre-change backups) for the foreseeable future. In support of a number of other changes in the works, I have found it necessary to change the storage format for Reactor objects in storage at the physical level. Until now, plain, standard JSON has been used to store the data (everything under the storage directory). This has served well, but has a few limitations, including no real support for native JavaScript objects like Date, Map, Set, and others. It also is unable to store data that contains "loops" — objects that reference themselves in some way. I'm not sure exactly when, but in the not-too-distant future I will publish a build using the new data format. It will automatically convert existing JSON data to the new format. For the moment, it will save data in both the new format and the old JSON format, preferring the former when loading data from storage. I have been running my own home with this new format for several months, and have no issues with data loss or corruption. A few other things to know: If you are not already backing up your storage directory, you should be. At a minimum, back this directory up every time you make big changes to your Rules, Reactions, etc. Your existing JSON-format backups will continue to be readable for the long-term (years). The code that loads data from these files looks for the new file format first (which will have a .dval suffix), and if not found, will happily read (and convert) a same-basenamed .json file (i.e. it looks for ruleid.dval first, and if it doesn't find it, it tries to load ruleid.json). I'll publish detailed instructions for restoring from old backups when the build is posted (it's easy). The new .dval files are not directly human-readable or editable as easily as the old .json files. A new utility will be provided in the tools directory to convert .dval data to .json format, which you can then read or edit if you find that necessary. However, that may not work for all future data, as my intent is to make more native JavaScript objects directly storable, and many of those objects cannot be stored in JSON. You may need to modify your backup tools/scripts to pick up the new files: if you explicitly name .json files (rather than just specifying the entire storage directory) in your backup configuration, you will need to add .dval files to get a complete, accurate backup. I don't think this will be an issue for any of you; I imagine that you're all just backing up the entire contents of storage regardless of format/name, that is the safest (and IMO most correct) way to go (if that's not what you're doing, consider changing your approach). The current code stores the data in both the .dval form and the .json form to hedge against any real-world problems I don't encounter in my own use. Some future build will drop this redundancy (i.e. save only to .dval form). However, the read code for the .json form will remain in any case. This applies only to persistent storage that Reactor creates and controls under the storage tree. All other JSON data files (e.g. device data for Controllers) are unaffected by this change and will remain in that form. YAML files are also unaffected by this change. This thread is open for any questions or concerns.

Controller Z-Wave JS UI: "Location" attribute not visible in Reactor entities
N
Hi, I'm on Docker/NAs (latest-26011-c621bbc7) with Zwave js ui (last version). I have set the 'Location' for each device in the Z-Wave JS UI dashboard, I cannot find this information among the Entity Attributes in the Reactor. I tried and the result is an empty array []. It seems the 'Location' metadata from Z-Wave JS is not being mapped to a standard attribute in Reactor. Location is equale to Rooms for me. When comparing this to the Vera or Ezlo Controller, Reactor automatically creates Room Icons also in the Reactor Dashboard and places the various devices under those room categories. This is a very convenient way to keep the dashboard organized and quickly find lights to turn off with a click (especially when something isn't switched off as expected for me:) ). Is there a way to map the Z-Wave JS UI 'Location' attribute and a dashboard organization, just like it does with Vera/Ezlo? Thanks in advance for all the great tips you've shared

VEC Virtual Switch Auto Off
S
I use Virtual Entity Controller virtual switches which I turn on via webhooks from other applications. Once a switch triggers and turns on, I can then activate associated rules. I would like each virtual switch to automatically turn off after a configurable time (e.g., 5 seconds, 10 seconds). Is there a better way to achieve this auto-off behavior instead of creating a separate rule for each switch that uses the 'Condition must be sustained for' option to turn it off? With a large number of these switches (and the associated turn-off rules), I'm checking to see if there is a simpler approach.If not, could this be a feature request to add an auto-off timer directly to the virtual switches. Thanks Reactor (Multi-hub) latest-26011-c621bbc7 VirtualEntityController v25356 Synology Docker

Changes operator does not always detect change
tunnusT
I've had similar problems before, but now this issue has resurfaced. Using build 26011 on Docker. As I copied one old rule as a "template" for a similar new rule, where I have multiple conditions using changes operator (from any to any, and with delay reset of 900), these conditions do not detect change in attributes. Even if I manually reset the rule, reset delay timers do not restart. If I do a new rule from scratch, and do not copy/import anything old, the same conditions work properly. Also, if I modify copied rule's conditions (put a random number to "from" & "to" fields), then save, and after that remove those modifications, rule begins to function normally. Just editing e.g. delay reset value does not do any good in this context. @toggledbits, I can DM logs & related rule files to you, if you just send me instructions.

    I finally made the Domoticz link work, and then ported all Zigbee devices to the much better zigate plugin there. No change in latency at all, very sharp responses to door and motion sensors. Happy! 🙂

    This plugin has its own GUI, and is almost structurally standalone. I've contacted the developers to ask if its possible with a direct API and to run it as a service to cut domoticz out of the chain..

    I can now confirm that TRADFRI and Aqara will work together just fine, with repeaters helping for both systems:

    So, the resolution to the recent errors was that the UZB Stick was set up with "Bridge" firmware! to fix, go to ExpertUI - Network - Control - Firmware - Switch to "Normal" Firmware.
    I may have been blinded by the "F**k, nothing i try works", but i think this detail could be more visible to beginners in some way, i.e. a small pop-up message when you try to add sensors in a-way (which requires normal mode FW).. I will pitch this to the z-way guys.

    Onwards!

    Did this:
    @rafale77 said in z-way-server ubuntu install:

    @PerH

    The problem is that libcurl3 is not in the standard repo you have listed.
    assuming you are on ubuntu download it from here:

    Ubuntu – Error

    You need to pick from the correct platform.
    wget --url you can paste from the link above--

    i.e

    wget http://no.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/c/curl3/libcurl3_7.58.0-2ubuntu2_amd64.deb
    

    downloading from the norwegian mirror for x64

    Then run

    dpkg -i libcurl3_7.58.0-2ubuntu2_amd64.deb
    

    might need sudo authority to install.

    Edit: Another idiot way to do it is to not install libcurl3 at all and instead create a symbolic link for libcurl3 to call libcurl4 (That's how I am running mine 🤘 )

    sudo ln -s /usr/local/x86_64-linux-gnu/libcurl-gnutls.so.4 /usr/local/x86_64-linux-gnu/libcurl-gnutls.so.3
    
    sudo ln -s /usr/local/x86_64-linux-gnu/libcurl.so.4 /usr/local/x86_64-linux-gnu/libcurl.so.3
    

    Note that you will need to find where your libcurl library was installed. I just gave you the ubuntu location.

    and

    apt install curl
    systemctl disable openluup.service
    systemctl enable openluup.service
    systemctl start openluup.service
    

    up and running again. Now the appstore is OK too, commencing attempt 2 on z-way bridge.

    There is an additional license for the Z-Way software, but I would say it is well worth it. My experience is that it's extremely stable (haven't crashed once in the years i've had it), and the control of the network through the expert panel is probably the best you can find.
    The "Smart Home" UI is not great, but it doesn't matter much if you're using openLuup. 🙂

  • Another transition from Vera to OpenLuup And now to HASS - PerH
    PerHP PerH

    I finally reached the finishline for the move-to-docker project! 🙂
    All applications are now inside dockers, communicating on the internal docker network.

    This makes updates easy - just update to a newer docker image. (or update in the app, in the openLuup case)

    Backup is done by copying the docker volumes to an SSD along with the indluxDB.

    Restore to any machine running docker is in principle just attaching the USB devices - install ser2net, and running one docker-compose file. Everything is set up and ready to go. Tested on an Ubuntu installed machine, and it works!

    This will offcourse take a bit more disk-space, havent summed it up yet.. But i have no plans on running this on machines with tiny storage anyway.

    One thing i'd like to improve is to get the UZB into Ser2net as well, with the advantage of accessing it from my test-system as well. Z-Way unfortunately can't take IP-serial without Socat? mabye in later updates.

    I made this sketch to keep track of the system in progress, it might be usefull to others?

  • Another transition from Vera to OpenLuup And now to HASS - PerH
    PerHP PerH

    After about 7 years in the Vera/openLuup world i've now moved on to a home assistant installation. This was rather reluctantly, as openLuup has served me well with very few issues (other than ones I created myself off course!). A big thanks to @akbooer and all contributors for all the good work with this software!

    The main reason for jumping the fence to HASS was in short all the integrations and UI possibilities. The device handling for Zigbee and RFXtrx is also developing to be really good, and is still maintained.
    There is still plenty of annoying bugs/imperfections with HASS, but the maturity is at a level where most of what I need works well enough.
    My system is now:

    • HASS Container
      • Z-wave JS UI for z-wave (Still prefer Z-Way here, but the integration isn't good there yet)
      • ZHA for zigbee
      • RFXTRX plugin for 433
      • HASS Configurator for UI file editor for both HASS and MSR configuration files
    • MSR for all automations
    • Grafana and InfluxDB 1.8 (upgrading to 2.0 in a while)

    So far so good! 🙂

  • MSR in Alpine Docker
    PerHP PerH

    I have a docker running smoothly now, thought i'd share it. (and BTW, it looks awesome, Patrick!)
    So far i've only opened 8111, and /config as volume. Mabye the full /reactor folder should be exposed for easy updating?

    docker compose:

    version: "3.9"
    services:
      MSR:
        container_name: MSR
        restart: always
        image: perhu/msr-alpine:latest
        ports:
          - "8111:8111"
        networks:
          HAnett:
            ipv4_address: 192.168.0.8
        volumes:
          - type: bind
            source: /etc/localtime
            target: /etc/localtime
          - type: volume
            source: MSR-config
            target: /etc/reactor/config
          - type: volume
            source: MSR-storage
            target: /etc/reactor/storage
    logging:
            driver: "json-file"
            options:
                max-file: "5"
                max-size: 10m
    networks:
        HAnett:
            name: HAnett
            driver: bridge
            ipam:
                config:
                    - subnet: 192.168.0.0/16
                      gateway: 192.168.0.254
    volumes:
      MSR-config:
        name: MSR-config
      MSR-storage:
        name: MSR-storage
    

    dockerfile for those who want to modify the image: (this works if you have unzipped MSR zip file to the same folder as the dockerfile)

    FROM alpine:latest
    
    COPY /reactor/. /etc/reactor/
    
    RUN apk add --update nodejs npm && cd /etc/reactor \
            && npm install --loglevel error --no-save \
            && cp dist-config/* config/
    
    VOLUME ["/etc/reactor/config"]
    
    VOLUME ["/etc/reactor/storage"]
    
    EXPOSE 8111
    
    CMD ["/bin/sh"]
    
    WORKDIR /etc/reactor
    
    CMD ["node", "/etc/reactor/app.js"]
    

    EDIT: 20210307 - updated with localtime bind

  • MSR in Alpine Docker
    PerHP PerH

    @LibraSun asked about MSR docker on synology in another thread. I don't know whats special on synology as i don't hvae one, but this is how you can do it on other linux systems (and please correct me if something's wrong in the write-up, im still learning here!):

    Start by downloading reactor from the bugtracker place and unzip it to an appropriate folder on the NAS called "/.../reactor/"
    Edit your /reactor/config/reactor.yaml with the appropriate settings
    In the same folder you have the /reactor/ sub folder, create a textfile called "dockerfile" (no extension)
    paste this in:

    FROM alpine:latest
    
    COPY /reactor/. /etc/reactor/
    
    RUN apk add --update nodejs npm && cd /etc/reactor \
           && npm install --loglevel error --no-save \
           && cp dist-config/* config/
    
    VOLUME ["/etc/reactor/config"]
    
    VOLUME ["/etc/reactor/storage"]
    
    EXPOSE 8111
    
    CMD ["/bin/sh"]
    
    WORKDIR /etc/reactor
    
    CMD ["node", "/etc/reactor/app.js"]
    

    save & close, and then type docker build -t your/image:version .

    Then you can make a docker-compose like mine in the above post, or you can use run command:
    docker run -p 8111:8111 your/image:version

    Note: @toggledbits prefers to keep control over MSR distribution through the alpha/beta testing, so publishing on dockerhub is not an option. You can have private repositories there as well in order to transfer an image between machines easily.

    I think so, yes. As simple as possible, unless we loose functionality, which i don't think is the case here?

  • How does MSR keep in sync with devices and scenes on Vera?
    PerHP PerH

    Isn't the vera updates based on polling? if so, it will only be updated at that interval.. I think the approach used in domoticz bridge is better, with some script on the host (domoticz in that case) yelling to the bridge on changes..

    Haven't touched my system for a while (or read updates here), busy with other projects..
    Just have to mention that I updated to the latest today and found the new entity selector tool... LOVE it! That has been my only nagging thing about reactor since vera reactor, all that scrolling..
    Thanks, @toggledbits, this is really turning into something VERY good!

  • Release 1.0.0
    PerHP PerH

    Haven't been able to do much helping on this for a while, but after installing the release docker, and moving the rest my automation to MSR i feel the need to say:
    GOOD JOB!
    Especially to Patrick, but also to all contributors.

    Automation is now very fast and intuitive to set up, and I still havent found anything i can't do with this. No bugs as far as i've seen yet either!

  • [Solved] Big change in my system - How to update MSR as best as possible?
    PerHP PerH

    I just gave up waiting for the HASS Z-wave.me integration to finish, and set up Zwave JS UI instead. In the same operation, all zigbee and 433 devices was moved from openluup to HASS as well, so all devices now have a new address.

    I thought I saw some "replace device" function in MSR earlier, but now I didnt find it?

    I've done a lot of the changes manually now, and removed openluup as a system, but at every restart I still get the warning/errors about the old units. I assume it's because rules ask for them? This is where that "replace this with this" would come in handy..

    Right now, my problem is that the rules i did update doesn't pull any levers in HASS. If I go in and run the action line in the rule manually, it works, but only with the arrow button on the actual action, not the common arrow button in "set reaction".

    Any tips/hints on making this transition easier is much appreciated. 🙂
