Yes, the idea is to stop the reactor, but almost stop it! What I mean is that the Reactor can stop and start working again via an external switch, for example from HE.

In other words, MSR would not execute actions, it would listen normally and update the status of devices normally, but it would not execute any Rule Sets or Reactions if this external switch were turned off. If you turn it on, everything goes back to working.

The idea would be to have a dashboard that can turn this switch on or off. Of course, if it is not configured in reactor.yaml, this functionality would not exist.

Thanks,
Wilson

Any sugestion boss?

Thanks

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?

@toggledbits said in Set Reaction > Script Action:

each id in getEntity("groups>dgc_PushableButton_N0").attributes.sys_group.members:
performAction( id, "x_hubitat_Refresh.refresh", {} )

EXCELLENT, IT WORKED!!! Thank you very much.

I was already working on this script, based on the example at the beginning of this discussion, but I was using performOnEntity.

each id in getEntity('groups>dgc_PushableButton_N0').attributes.sys_group.members: performOnEntity(id, 'x_hubitat_Refresh.refresh')

Thank you very much for your help. Another lesson learned, and I am already putting more optimizations into practice.

Sorry, I don't understand, it doesn't work the way it's written below.

What information do I have to assign to grup_actions, or is it something else?

Thanks

@therealdb

This feature is really fantastic. I'm changing a lot of rules for it.

Now you could help me with this one. I need to know if the button is stuck, i.e., if it hasn't returned to zero, and force a refresh.

The selection rule is already correct, but now I can't understand how to define the Group Action to apply x_hubitatRefresh.refresh.

        "dgc_PushableButton_N0":
          name: DGC PushableButton Not 0
          select:
            - include_capability:
              - x_hubitat_PushableButton
            - exclude_entity:
              - "hubitatC8>2672"  # Alarm Sirene
              - "hubitatC8>2100"  # Remote Adriane
              - "hubitatC8>420"   # Remote Quad
          group_actions: x_hubitat_Refresh
          filter_expression: >
            entity.attributes.x_hubitat_PushableButton.pushed != 0 and
            entity.attributes.x_hubitat_PushableButton.pushed != null

Could you help me with your experience?

This is what I want to change.

Only apply refresh, to the button selected by the DynamicGroup.

Or in this case is Script that I need to create?

Thanks.

@toggledbits

I don't know what other words to use to describe Reactor! If I had read the entire manual, I wouldn't have posted about Group Action. Now that I've read everything that DynamicGroupController can do, it's impressive.

I was definitely one of the enthusiasts when this was implemented, and now with this option to take actions, it's wonderful. It's going to simplify a lot of rules for me.

Thank you very much @t. Every day I'm surprised by the things that can be done in Reactor.

@Crille

Thank you for your comment, but I need this to be executed by an action already within the routines I program in Reactor.

So using it within the configuration would not help me.

The selection of devices is indeed within the Dynamic Group, which is perfect, but I was wondering if I could do something like a script, which would require a routine like the one I have today, where I send a list of devices to be turned on, even if they are already on, so I don't have to create a group to analyze the status of each one.

I want to do something smarter.

Anyway, thank you, and let's see if we have any other recommendations.

Hi

Use case: possibility of using a script instead of setting up an action in this way.

If I have a variable that contains the device IDs within the array, could I use a script to execute the powe_switch.on command for the devices in this list?

I tried to understand in the manual (https://reactor.toggledbits.com/docs/Script-Action/) how to use this script feature, but I was unsuccessful. Are there any examples here in the forum of how to use it so I can continue my development?

Thanks.

@toggledbits

While you're at it, could you add to Santa's list a request for a function that, when given two coordinates, returns the distance between them?

I'll explain the use case: when Life360 worked on Hubitat, one of the variables was precisely the distance between the device and the point determined as the home. However, as I said, it hasn't worked for a long time.

This was one of the reasons for installing Home Assistance, which works perfectly, but it doesn't have this information, so I had to do the calculation.

I know, you're going to say what a horrible thing, what a mess, but it's working.

I prepared a series of calculations, using the coordinates of my home as a reference, for my phone WIL and my wife's phone ADRI. The phone coordinates come from Life360.

Next, I have the calculations.

So, I have the result.

I used this formula Python.

from math import radians, sin, cos, sqrt, atan2

def haversine(lat1, lon1, lat2, lon2):
    R = 6371  # raio da Terra em km

    dlat = radians(lat2 - lat1)
    dlon = radians(lon2 - lon1)

    lat1 = radians(lat1)
    lat2 = radians(lat2)

    a = sin(dlat/2)**2 + cos(lat1) * cos(lat2) * sin(dlon/2)**2
    c = 2 * atan2(sqrt(a), sqrt(1 - a))

    return R * c  # distância em km

Thanks.

Hi @toggledbits

As I mentioned, I don't think it's a performance issue. Looking at the memory and processing of the Reactor and HA VM, the consumption is insignificant. I have more than 370 devices between ZWave and ZigBee, the Reactor is connected to a Hubitat C8, Hubitat C7, Zemismart M1, Aqara, and now HA, and it doesn't even affect processing.

My only desire was to remove elements from the Reactor in Entity that I don't care about. However, this is more a matter of usage habit than performance.

And by the way, the implementation in the latest version of the link to go directly to the rule or devices is fantastic. You still need to tweak the Entity Widgets for the Entity list. I think that instead of calling by Entity Name, it is calling by Canonical ID, and this is not working. But the idea is fantastic.

How is Santa's wish list coming along? You could have a post with this list just so we know what's coming down the road at some point.

Thanks!

Hi @toggledbits

I understand, I know that the system is very robust and supports thousands of interactions, I even imagine that because the two VMs of Reactor and HASS are on the same computer, the speed of communication is enormous.

So, apart from the overload issue that not have, I'm thinking about the practicality of using it, by removing from the list of HASS entity devices that I'm not interested in viewing in Reactor.

Looking at the manual, excuse my incompetence, I really couldn't identify how to configure not to load the Entity in Reactor, I made several attempts and I can't remove the devices. Below is my last attempt. If you can help me with the correct configuration.


  - id: hass
    enabled: true
    implementation: HassController
    name: Home Assistant System
    config:
      source: 'ws://192.xxx.xxx.xxx:8123'
      access_token: "eyJhbxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxc0N>
      #
      # ignore_cert - If true, suppresses certificate validation when using wss:// (Websocket
      #               with SSL/TLS) and thus allows a self-signed certificate to be used on
      #               the Hass system.
      #ignore_cert: false
      #
      # dump_all_states - This is for troubleshooting. Do not enable unless asked.
      #dump_all_states: false
      exclude_entities:
        - "hass>sensor_sun*"

Thanks.

Hi @toggledbits

I'm new to HA, and I just finished integrating it with MSR. It was very easy to configure and interact between platforms.

However, one thing that bothered me is that all HA Entities were sent to MSR, and in my opinion, this generates unnecessary integration overload. I searched the manual and here in the forum for a way to delete everything I don't want to come to MSR, such as all this information from Sun *.

Is it possible to configure this, as we already do with Vera, for example? And if possible, would using a wildcard such as hass>sun* automatically exclude all other entities of this type?

Thanks.

@toggledbits

Looking for a solution, I implement this script.

#!/bin/bash

# Nome do UPS configurado em /etc/nut/ups.conf
UPS_NAME="TrippLite"

# Comando para verificar o status do UPS
if upsc "$UPS_NAME@localhost" | grep -q "DATA-STALE"; then
    echo "$(date): DATA-STALE detectado. Reiniciando o serviço NUT." >> /var/log/monitor_nut.log
    systemctl restart nut-driver.service
    systemctl restart nut-server.service
    systemctl restart nut-monitor.service
else
    echo "$(date): Serviço funcionando normalmente." >> /var/log/monitor_nut.log
fi

We'll see if it eases the problem, but here's the situation with the NUT.

I removed the crontab stop and restart process with a set time, and then restarted the MSR to follow the new logs, below.

. but after 8min DATA-STALE again
.

When it failed I consulted upsc directly and the answer I got was the one below.

root@main:/home/wilson/reactor/logs# upsc TrippLite@192.168.50.8
Init SSL without certificate database
Error: Data stale
root@main:/home/wilson/reactor/logs#

Importantly, in MSR the NUT service does not crash, but it stops updating.

See that the device goes into an uninformed/excluded status.

I don't think the problem lies with the MSR/NUTConttoler, it's a matter of the NUT itself managing the UPS. I've been in this situation for more than a year and I can't get out of the problem loop, so some time ago I adopted the stop and restart crontab to alleviate the problem.

@toggledbits hi!

This NUT UPS issue is something I've been unable to get to work perfectly for months, not to mention year. I even posted a message to you recently.

I tried to use an old solution from the HE community instead of the MSR solution. The information it returns is much simpler, I had to add attributes to the drive, but the problem turns out to be the same, the NUT stops working, the communication between the UPS and the VM where the NUT is located is not stable. HE upsd drive result: Satale date.

In other words, after switching from MSR to HE control, the problem continues, changing the error Throttled to ECONNREFUSED.

Making a new test, returning to the MSR's NUTControl configuration below, with the same parameters as the HE drive.

  - id: nut
    enabled: true
    implementation: NUTController
    name: NUT UPS Controller
    config:
      server: 192.168.50.8  # modify the IP address as needed
      port: 3493            # optional, default shown
      username: "Reactor"   # optional, no user auth if not set
      password: "Mac1967"   # optional, must be specified if username is used

IMPORTANT, even with this error log, the NUT control in the MSR does not stop working, it persists until it manages to communicate and collect the data, but this error scenario overloads the MSR.

Perhaps the time solution indicated by @tunnus could help.

IN SUMMARY:

the connection parameters IP, login and password are correct, in the log you can see that it connects.
NUTControl works until it starts a sequence of failures.
In order to re-establish the service, I put a stop and start process in the crontab every 10 minutes, the problem is that it can remain idle all this time and fail.
I've tried changing all the synchronization and reading times in the NUT parameters, I've even increased them to 90 seconds for data collection(ie. POLLFREQALERT 30 // HOSTSYNC 30), and it doesn't change the scenario, at a certain point there's saturation and the UPS stops responding.2

So I think the idea of making the MSR have a different collection time, longer than other devices, can at least reduce the error log, but it doesn't solve the problem.

Thanks.

@tunnus hi!
I like what I've read, I think it could be a solution, but it's still not very clear how to configure it, since I want to save various attributes of the device.
I'll try it out and post the result here for you, but it could be a way forward.
Thank you.
