On Habitat it appears that the dimming level reports the last level regardless of the power state of the switch. It is the same in the Habitat device detail, Habitat Dashboard and the MSR entities list. It is the same with a Honeywell, Zooz and Virtual Dimmers.

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!
Edit: Solved in latest-26221.
Bare-metal latest-26193
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.
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"...

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

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.

Hubitat dimmer vs Vera dimmer in MSR -
Mosquitto and Owntracks@catmanv2 I am no expert but try this:
Change user: to username: Also, I believe both username: and password: should be the same indenting as source. -
openLuup Install errorsJust checking. Tried the procedure twice with a clean SD card image both times a day apart.
Thanks for the input. -
Low-priority GUI feedbackYou are correct. That is what I wanted, Just not smart enough to try drag and drop. That works perfectly.
Thanks -
Docker container for Z-Way@librasun
I, being a Noob with docker, used PerH's image with a run command on my Synology. It runs and I can see the UZB dongle from the interface but I haven't added any devices yet. There are a couple of things that I do not think are quite right though. Read the the thread "z-way-server new release" I posted those issues there. Also search the Zwave.me forum for "Docker" and PerH posted a docker file and compose file but the version is not right for the compose file with the Docker version on the Synology, that is why I used a run command. -
Mosquitto and Owntracks@catmanv2 said in Mosquitto and Owntracks:
Does the indenting really matter?
Yes, indenting matters, like @therealdb said previously.
Is port 8883 the correct port for your setup? -
Version 1.0 Pre-release Discussion@toggledbits , As you stated in another thread "Capabilities on Hubitat are free-form, and there's no indication which capability might be the most useful or primary". Could you add the ability for a user to manually select the primary capability for each Hubitat device? This would allow the Entities screen to display info in the primary value. If the Dashboard feature is added in the future then the Hubitat device should display correctly there also.( I also would like to request the dashboard)

Setting Other State Variables on Vera / Hubitat@LibraSun Yes, Just add the Hub Variables to the Makers API app and restart MSR and they will be visible.
-
Setting Other State Variables on Vera / Hubitat@librasun They changed from global variable in Rule Machine to Hub Variables. I glossed right over the naming when you asked and assumed you meant Hub Variables. Glad you got it working.

A couple of suggestions for MSR@therealdb said in A couple of suggestions for MSR:
I would like to see the logs in the web UI. I'm frequently tweaking things and opening an SSH connection just to see the latest logs is overkill. Maybe something to see the streaming logs will be perfect, but refreshing them is OK
This is something I previously suggested and believe it would be very helpful. Something like the Hubitat logs from the web UI.

[Resolved] Determining if button is pushed@3rdStng I do not have the same device but I had to overcome this with my minimotes. Have you tried to set the x_hubitat_pushableButton.push back to 0 after your intended reaction. I cannot post images either for some reason or I would post an image of my Rule.

[Solved] Hubitat Hub Information Driver v3 and probe deviceInstallation of Reactor build 23049 and configuring a virtual switch as a probe device appears to be working well.
FYI, The "Manual" link in the Reactor UI doesn't have the updated docs that are linked to in the Release notes thread. Hubitat Controller, Other Configuration, probe_device section. I have tried a hard reset in safari and Firefox browsers but the documentation is not the updated instructions. Thank You.

[Solved] Loading Screen Safari@toggledbits I tried the Clear Local Storage and a hard-refresh and still have the same result. I am attaching a new screenshot of the web inspector where I saw some errors just in case it means something to you.
I don't know why it works for some on Safari but seems work for all with other browsers. Is there anything else you can think of for me to check?
Thank you for responding with your experiences @CatmanV2 @therealdb and @gwp1 !
