Reactor-Editor / Reactor-ui-Status Errors
SnowmanS

@toggledbits I understand that you do not perform testing on Mac computers but thought I'd share the following with you in case something can be done.

I started seeing these errors with version 24302. I thought that upgrading to 24343 would have fixed the issue but unfortunately not. I either have to close the browser or clear the cache for the errors to stop popping-up but they slowly come back.

I see these errors on the following browsers:

Safari 16.6.1 on macOS Big Sur Safari 18.1.1 on MacOS Sonoma DuckDuckGo 1.118.0 on macOS Big Sur and Sonoma Firefox 133.0.3 on macOS Big Sur Chrome 131.0.6778 on macOS Big Sur

Here are the errors

Wasn't able to create a Mantis ticket on this.

Attempted to add a month range to a ruleset and it seems the first field every X days is not editable. The rest are fine.

Multi-System Reactor
[Reactor] Use VirtualEntityController actions to drive a Reolink spotlight
therealdbT

Build 24343 has fully HTTP actions, so cool things could be created (see docs). I've recently changed a couple of cams because better definition and I've found tha Reolink has a couple of cams that have spotlights. While the spotlights are driven by motion (so the cam could record in color), I wanted to drive them directly, so in case of any "security" event, like alarm on, door open, etc, I could use the lights to have a better video and make - you know - light.

So, if you want to use HTTP actions in VirtualController, just go to config, entities under your VirtualEntityController section in reactor.yaml, and add this:

- id: cams_retro_spotlights name: "Retro Cam - Spotlights" template: Binary Switch # update the status at interval http_request: interval: 900 # 15m url: "http://192.168.1.31/cgi-bin/api.cgi?user=foo&password=foo" method: "POST" force_json: true headers: "Content-Type": "application/json" "Accept": "application/json" body: '[{"cmd": "GetWhiteLed", "action": 0 , "param": { "channel": 0 }}]' capabilities: power_switch: attributes: state: expr: "isnull( response ) ? null : response[0]?.value?.WhiteLed?.state == 1" default: false actions: "on": http_request: url: "http://192.168.1.31/cgi-bin/api.cgi?user=foo&password=foo" method: "POST" force_json: true headers: "Content-Type": "application/json" "Accept": "application/json" body: '[{"cmd": "SetWhiteLed", "param": { "WhiteLed": {"bright" : 100, "channel": 0, "mode": 1, "state": 1}}}]' target: state expr: "isnull( response ) ? null: response[0]?.value?.rspCode == '200'" "off": http_request: url: "http://192.168.1.31/cgi-bin/api.cgi?user=foo&password=foo" method: "POST" force_json: true headers: "Content-Type": "application/json" "Accept": "application/json" body: '[{"cmd": "SetWhiteLed", "param": { "WhiteLed": {"bright" : 100, "channel": 0, "mode": 1, "state": 0}}}]' target: state expr: "isnull( response ) ? null : response[0]?.value?.rspCode == '200' ? false : null"

Reolink has API where you have to post a JSON and the response will give you a JSON (in theory). It's not really JSON, so force_json: true will do the trick for you. I'm lefting this as an example of cool things you could do with the new capabilites added/documented in 24343. HTH.

How-To
Darker Reactor style
therealdbT

Thanks to @toggledbits for adding a custom CSS. I've started doing a darker Reactor style.

Here's the file: https://gist.github.com/dbochicchio/825098ac13b7f8cac22012eae37ff7ce

A couple of things are still too bright and I'll eventually catch-up. Just place it under your /config directory, naming the file as customstyles.css. Hard refresh your browser.

Which user to install nodejs as ? Debian Linux
cw-kidC

Hi

Having to rebuild my Linux Debian box as the SSD failed. And I have forgotten exactly what I did the first time to get it all setup.

I have Debian 12 up and running on the new SSD, I only have console no Desktop GUI.

I am trying to do the bare metal install for MSR. However I am not sure if I am meant to install nodejs whlist logged in as the root user or as the none root user with my name ?

I used putty and connected via SSH and logged in as root and I installed nodejs but I think this was wrong as when logged in as my user name and I do a node -v command it says node is not installed or doesn't show any version number anyway.

But when logged in as root and I do a node -v command it does show me its installed and displays the version number. maybe its a path issue for my username and he can't see node is installed?

So now I am thinking I should of installed node whilst logged in as my user name and not as the root user.

This is how I installed nodejs as whilst logged in as root

OpenAI Controller for Reactor
therealdbT

As the title says, here's my OpenAI Controller for Reactor:

GitHub - dbochicchio/reactor-openai: OpenAI Controller per Reactor GitHub - dbochicchio/reactor-openai: OpenAI Controller per Reactor

OpenAI Controller per Reactor. Contribute to dbochicchio/reactor-openai development by creating an account on GitHub.

It supports both OpenAI and Azure OpenAI endpoints. You'll need keys/endpoints, according to each service.
The controller supports multiple models, and each one could be mapped as an entity.

- id: openai name: OpenAI implementation: OpenAIController enabled: true config: models: - id: openai name: OpenAI GPT-4 model: gpt-4 service: openai api_key: xxxxx # taken from your OpenAI dashboard max_tokens: 2000 # default temperature: 0.5 # default top_p: 1 # default frequency_penalty: 0 # default presence_penalty: 0 # default stop: null # default - id: azure name: Azure GPT-4 model: gpt-4 service: azure endpoint: "https://XXX.openai.azure.com/openai/deployments/gpt-4o/chat/completions?api-version=2023-03-15-preview" # taken from your Azure GPT-4 service api_key: xxxx # taken from Azure max_tokens: 2000 # default temperature: "0.5" # default top_p: 1 # default frequency_penalty: 0 # default presence_penalty: 0 # default stop: null # default

It's quite easy to use, and responses can be stored in variables, for easy access. Or sent to another action (Text To Speech, another endpoint, etc).

This has been working flawlessly each year incl this year until... Tonight... nada.

Is this due to the holiday being late this year ie because today is the 22nd, not after the 22nd?

[How-to] Managing holidays in Reactor
therealdbT

I've switched to a virtual entity with both power_switch and string_sensor capabilities to represent the current holiday.

The power switch is used to indicate if it's a public holiday (so, no school/work), while the string sensor is a string with the actual holiday (Easter, Christmas, Halloween, etc - we don't have thanksgiving), mostly to drive lights.

I build it with some static dates (mostly birthdays/anniversaries) and then the dynamics ones are taken from webcal.guru. My lights/scenes are linked to events this way and it's easier to manage it in the long run: just a bunch of group action in the reaction driving the lights. This part is outside Reactor for me (because, legacy), but it's not difficult to completly drive it off a virtual sensor or a custom controller.

I don't know how people are doing this, but I'm lefting a note for the ones looking for a working solution.

How-To
Reference error - null object
tunnusT

In Home Assistant I have an integration that if I add entities to it, I will get the following error in MSR as certain entity values I'm using in expressions are null for a moment. This is more or less cosmetic issue and happens very rarely as I rarely modify that integration on the hass side.

Screenshot 2024-11-28 at 22.20.41.png

And the expression is

Screenshot 2024-11-28 at 22.38.19.png

Could I "wrap" hass-entity shown above somewhat differently to prevent this error from happening? Using build 24302.

Multi-System Reactor
Trouble Configuring Multi-System Reactor Logic Across Devices
G

Hello

I am trying to set up Multi System Reactor to automate routines across multiple smart home devices & platforms (e.g., Home Assistant, SmartThings, and Hubitat). While I have successfully linked the systems; I am facing issues with:

-Delays in triggering actions on secondary devices.
-Inconsistent execution of complex logic conditions.
-Synchronization of states between devices when one system updates.

Is there a recommended way to optimize performance & confirm seamless state sharing across systems?
I have checked https://smarthome.community/category/22/multi-system-reactor-msbi guide for reference but still need advice.

Any tips on debugging or log analysis to pinpoint where the issue arises would also be appreciated.

Thank you !

openLuup email server
A

Hello AK

Have been writing about the openLuup email server as I was tinkering with it the other day. One minor problem: it looks like the domain part of the email address eg ...@openLuup.local is case sensitive in openLuup.

Looking round the net, it suggests that the local part is case sensitive but the domain part is not meant to be. To keep things so they are more likely to work, it's suggested the email address should be totally case insensitive regardless. Refer to rfc2821 page 13 or search on the word "sensitive". Suffice to say I was using mail@openluup.local rather than mail@openLuup.local, so it didn't work for me.

Next challenge was that the file saved in /etc/cmh-ludl/mail has "Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64" so the body of the email was encoded:

Received: from ((openLuup.smtp) [ip_address_1] by (openLuup.smtp v18.4.12) [ip_address_2]; Tue, 26 Nov 2024 14:21:22 +1000 From: "dali@switchboard" <dali@switchboard> To: "mail@openLuup.local" <mail@openLuup.local> Subject: Warning form R2E. MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64 QXV0byBXYXJuaW5nOiBDb2xkIHN0YXJ0IGV2ZW50

The above base 64 text translates to "Auto Warning: Cold start event".

Is it your preference to leave the saved files in the raw mode or would you consider translating the base64 text in the openLuup code base?

On a side note, does the reception of an email by openLuup generate some sort of trigger that can be watched. In the case above; the email represents the restoration of power after a power outage. I would like to know about that by the email triggering a "Telegram" notification on my mobile.

I see that the images@openLuup.local images@openLuup.local can be associated with I_openLuupCamera1.xml, which spawns a movement detector child. Anything similar for the other email addresses?

MSR UI on a mobile browser
tunnusT

I've managed to use MSR UI on iOS devices to some degree*, so that although UI elements (e.g. rule sets) are not visible in portrait mode, you've seen them in landscape. Now with recents builds (24302) this does not work anymore, elements (rule sets, entities) are not anymore visible in landscape mode.

Does anyone have similar experiences? Using iOS 18 and Safari/Chrome browser.

( *Drag & drop of rule conditions have never worked on a mobile)

ZWaveJSController - Warning/Error Traceback - Registering action set volume for Aeotec Siren 6 (ZW164)

@toggledbits Since I have upgraded ZWaveJSController to 24293 from 24257 I am seeing entries related to registering action set_volume, but action is not defined by the capability 143 every time I restart Reactor.

The Siren seems to be doing what it is supposed to do. The volume levels are fine. Should I worry about it?

High temperature sensor for Zigbee
R

I have an oven that I need to manage the temperature of, keeping it in the neighborhood of 600° C (1100° F). I have not been able to find a Zigbee-enabled solution to measure temps that high. Does anyone know if such a thing exists? If not, any ideas for how to roll a custom solution that I could integrate into a Sonoff ihost controller? I have no trouble finding high temperature probes, but none of them interface with my automation stack.

New to Home Automation Looking for a Single app?
A

Hi All

Hopefully this place looks like a helpful forum as I’m quite new to all this!

I’ve had a few devices all working separately /through their proprietary apps but we’re just finishing off a large house extension and this has added to the list.

I’d ideally like to be able to view/switch a number of different devices on one screen/head end but have no idea where to start.

The devices we have/will have shortly are as follows;

Zigbee Smart Sockets
Zigbee smart switches (for lights)
Heatmiser Neo Underfloor Heating (this runs from a Samsung ASHP but that part is automatic)
Samsung VRF air conditioning (currently using Smart Things App)
Hive (2xLTHW heating circuits in the existing house and Hot Water)
Ring (doorbell!)
Hik Vision PoE CCTV

We have lots of appliances (Neff N70) which we can control remotely but not too fussed about controlling those at the
Moment)

Any help/recommendations would be appreciated!

Thanks

Adrian

Sending data to a USB port to interface with a wireless switch
F

I have a legacy home automation set-up running on Windows XP. the computer and software have now died.
I have written a very nice Excel VBA program to replace the software and it can run on any modern Windows system.
My only remaining problem is to output the correct signal to a USB port to trigger the wireless switches.
Has anybody done a similar exercise. Please help.

Seeking Advice:

The locksmith is trying to persuade me to purchase the BE-TECH K35 touchscreen lock with both Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, claiming it's better than the Yale Assure Lock 2. What are your thoughts on this? Which one would you recommend?

Here is the link to the Chinese brand BE-TECH: BE-TECH Smart Deadbolt K3S.

The other smart lock I am considering is the Schlage Encode Plus.

Thank you!

  • Reactor Start - System Crash/Restart
    T tbully

    In my exhaustion (anger? Lol), I mistyped. I’m at 22.04. 🙂

    I do fire an email just before the reboot. I took a break to check emails and wrap up for the day and this is what triggered it for me. If it wasn’t for this, I think I’d still be digging. I send lots of emails, perhaps too many, when different things happen. This is a great idea!

    I have to go look at the rule today. I thought I set a variable on reboot which would only allow one event/reboot. At least I thought about this possibility but I clearly missed something.

    Thanks for the consoling, gents. I’ve appreciated both of your support over the past year as I’ve slowly moved away from Vera to HASS with Reactor being the central rules engine.

  • Reactor Start - System Crash/Restart
    T tbully

    I could delete these posts but I won't. In short, I'm an idiot.

    I remembered I have a rule which reboots my Linux host when my weather station goes in to error. Reactor lives on that host. (sigh)

    My fix was to temporarily rename the "reboot" command in the filesystem to something else. Start Reactor (imagine that, no reboot!). Disable the rule. Fix the command back to "reboot" in the FS.

    Happy New Year! (ugh)

    Hello All -
    I upgraded my OS to Ubuntu 20.04 today and have been regretting it for several hours. I have most of my system up. However, I've found that, when I start Reactor, it panics / reboots my OS. I've included the syslog during startup below. There's a benign message about not finding a Vera device just before the reboot but that's it.

    Needless to say, I've learned my lesson regarding OS upgrades.

  • Where Used Functionality?
    T tbully

    I have the rules migrated and running on the external Reactor (doing some tweaking as you mentioned). That's not my issue.

    My issue is I'm now starting to exclude some devices from Vera and adding them to HASS. For the most part, I've been successful in knowing where the device is used in my ruleset. However, on a few occasions, I've forgotten / missed some rules.

    It would be great to look up an entity in MSR and see where it's used (either in rules or reactions) so I can account for the myriad places some devices exist.

  • Where Used Functionality?
    T tbully

    Hello All -

    I'm still working on moving dozens of devices from Vera (internal Reactor) to HASS and (external - bare metal) Reactor.

    One thing I've noticed is sometimes I move a few ZWave/Vera devices and find myself digging through rules finding where a device was used. Has anyone found a good way to do this?

    I plan on digging in to this thread but thought I'd check to see if there's anything more recent.

  • Hot Water Recirc - Global Date/Time Variable
    T tbully

    All -

    I took a different approach. I didn't feel like asking the forum a bunch of stupid questions.

    1. Setup a global variable ("ReadyForRecirc") which will contain a true or false
    2. Utilize my global "Start Hot Water Recirculation" reaction. After starting the reaction, wait for 60 minutes before "ReadyForRecirc" is set to TRUE.
    3. Where I have logic to run recirculation, call the "Start Hot Water Recirculation" reaction, wait 5 seconds, set "ReadyForRecirc" to FALSE.

    Seems to work OK.

    p.s. I don't know why I have to manually enter true/false for my motions but seems to be OK.

  • Hot Water Recirc - Global Date/Time Variable
    T tbully

    Interesting on the time() eval. Makes sense. I have to rethink this as I want it to be rather responsive without MSR constantly running the function. In other words, I don't want to wait a minute (as an example) for recirc to start when someone enters the bathroom.

    Also agree on boolean vs. string and thought it was weird that it wanted a string. Because it was a test (and that part worked), I didn't put much thought in to it.

    The time piece is really the issue at the moment.

    T tbully

    @crille
    Argh. Thanks. I meant time and clearly saw it in the manual. I was caught up on the function / call and syntax so this was helpful.

    Can someone check me on my logic? As a test, I'm looking for recirc to be ran 10 minutes or later and motion in the workshop.

  • Hot Water Recirc - Global Date/Time Variable
    T tbully

    Hello All -
    I've finally gotten to the point where I can start / stop hot water recirculation using MSR and a HASS service call, reliably.

    I'd like to start with some simple automation to start circulation in certain instances (e.g. motion in bathroom, etc).

    That said, I do not want to obsessively run circulation in the spirit of energy conservation and equipment abuse. So I'd like to use a time stamp of last run and perhaps limit the execution to something like once per hour.

    I read the manual and see references to date handling in expressions. I see that response to the date() call is in EPOCH. That's great and should make math easy. However, in the reaction to start the circulation, I'm having a hard time setting a global variable to the current date/time.

    Can someone point me to examples? Using a 'Set Variable' and date() just puts "date()" in as a string value.

    Thanks.

  • "changes from" operator stops to detect change
    T tbully

    Sigh. So this is weird. I updated to the latest and no change.

    I then took your advice and just was manually changing the Value8 variable in Vera from alpha to beta. It still didn't help. I finally took the 600 second delay out and noted that the set/reset started working. Put the delay back and all is good (I think).

    I'll keep an eye on it. Thanks for sticking with me on this one.

    @toggledbits

    Apologies for the silence. The work week got away from me.

    While I wouldn't put it past me, the rule is indeed enabled.

    I'm doing something similar to your suggestion in order to test.

    1. MSR status up in one window (see screenshot)
    2. In Vera console in another window, I disarm/arm SiteSensor. As you're aware, this causes a re-fire of the recipe.
    3. I can then visual see the Value8 value change in the window.

    Is that a good enough test or should I go further somehow? (e.g. manually modifying Value8) Is there a way to increase debug level so we can see the payload coming back from Vera to MSR?

  • "changes from" operator stops to detect change
    T tbully

    @toggledbits
    I have thought about that. But I just checked again. Value 8 updates (to the second) each time it successfully runs. This is the observation time from the weather station itself (the station at my home). This is important as it's that lack-of-update that I'm trying to detect. Otherwise, I would agree that time() would be sufficient.

    Another interesting fact is that this rule/reaction works OK in the "Vera Instance" of Reactor.

    @Pabla - Thanks again for your help. This was finally the answer (for anyone searching later)....

    {
    "recirculation_minutes" : 5,
    "entity_id": "water_heater.bully_house_water_heater"
}

    @pabla Closer! Passes the parser and now a new error... I will play with this a bit later after meetings...

    Thanks @pabla . I did read your thread and tried a few ideas from it. When I drop "data", I get a parser error.....

    Updated version was able to get past the parser but then get the below error from HASS.

    Clearly doesn't like "data" being sent again. But I'm unclear how to send the "recirculation_minutes" and then the following "target" / "entity_id" parameter.

    Hello -

    As the subject implies, I'm trying to make a Service Call to Home Assistant and having formatting issues. I struggle with JSON so hoping someone can provide me direction.

    Here's an example of working YAML in Home Assistant:

    service: rinnai.start_recirculation
data:
  recirculation_minutes: 5
target:
  entity_id: water_heater.bully_house_water_heater
  • "changes from" operator stops to detect change

    Given this thread: https://smarthome.community/topic/455/replacing-sitesensor-plugin-vera-with-msr/34

    Maybe I just turn this responsibility over to MSR and make life easier. It will have to be done at some point anyway (as Vera is going away)
