Impulse type switches not discovered about hacs-homee

[Taraman17]

Ok, succeded in running the commands, but when I start Homeassistant in the DevContainer, pymee gets overwritten with the original version.

Edit: found it - HA has to be run with option "skip pip"

[Taraman17]

Thx, should be fixed

With a line of log code added, I could confirm that the node is found, but not added in the UI:

Today I decided to have a closer look into the code and found the causes for my problem.

The yard gate is controlled by a radio-relay which is of type IMPULSE_RELAY (Protocol 43) which is not yet configured as switch. Also it does not have the Attribute Type ON_OFF (1), but WatchdogOnOff (385) 1.

At this point my efforts stalled, beacuse I could use some help setting up the Devcontainer. I have the ha-core running fine, but don't know how to properly integrate this component for development. So far I just copied the files manually into the HA devcontainer, but now I don't know where the pymee files reside, which need to be changed also.

If I could get some hints on this, I should be able to add proper support for my two devices.

[Stklingner]

@Taraman17 if you copy the repo files into vscode under custom_components/hacs-homee and then rebuild the container it should work IIRC

[Stklingner]

Let me know how you get on - there are a few things I'd like to have a look at (edit: when I get the time) and I can add this to the list

[Taraman17]

@Taraman17 if you copy the repo files into vscode under custom_components/hacs-homee and then rebuild the container it should work IIRC

So that is copy the pymee files to a directory "vscode" in the custom_components/hacs-homee dir, or do you mean I copy them using vscode to the hacs-homee directory?

[Stklingner]

Sorry, half asleep today - copy the "homee" folder in "custom_components"
from hacs-homee into a folder called "custom_components" in the core repository using vscode (you can just drag the folder from your explorer/finder into vscode's file list on the sidebar), then rebuild the container and it will install the dependencies.

[Taraman17]

I got so far, but now I need to change files in the pymee library.
How do I achieve that?

[Stklingner]

SW> I got so far, but now I need to change files in the pymee library.

Nice job so far! So now we need to take a modified version of pymee that you’re going to be playing around with:

1. Fork freshlybrewed’s pymee repo to your account
2. open the terminal in your dev environment in vscode (down the bottom)
3. Now you should be able to do pip uninstall pymee and then pip install git+https://"your repo"@"whichever branch you want"
4. Modify your pymee code in another window, commit back to GitHub then reinstall as per 3 to try out (if in doubt, rebuild the container)
5. Rinse and repeat

You used to be able to change the manifest requirement to a GitHub reference and use the “install all dependencies” command in the dev environment but this broke a while back…

[Taraman17]

Great, thank you. Try that as soon as I have time.

[Taraman17]

First progress is made - I can discover the devices as switches and have the position sensor for the garage door.
When I try to use the switches however I get errors.

Edit: I found out, that I looked for the wrong Switch-Attribute. That fixed, I still get the error:

Research showed that this might be related to the debugging environment, so today as the updated pymee lib was available I tested on my production HA and there it works. ;-)

[Pr0mises]

@Taraman17 are you also able to control your Garagentor with hass? I only get the current status (most of the time i need to update the device status in the homee app to have the current status in hass) and a position slider which does nothing.

[Taraman17]

@Pr0mises after the update I get the Garagedoor as a switch and a sensor.
Before there was the slider which did not work, since the opener only accepts impulses to start/stop and not position commands.

Yesterday on testing it worked well - this morning it doesn't. Need to find out why.

[Pr0mises]

@Taraman17 did you mean it reverted back to the slider?
The update didn't do anything to my garagedoor. I'll try to purge homee from hass and connect it again if it changed for you

[Taraman17]

I noticed that the slider is still present.
I need to also change cover.py so that it does not reacts on impulse operators

[Taraman17]

@Stklingner follow up question:
Is there a way to get the logs from the pymee library out of the DevContainer?
I saw it logs quite a lot of interesting stuff.

[Stklingner]

@Taraman17 As you've surmised, they should be somewhere in the container but I'm not sure where to begin - the structure is explorable via the vscode terminal so should be findable!

I only used python scripts when dealing with pymee; I find that there's so much going on in HA it's difficult to really see what it's doing...

[Taraman17]

@Stklingner Thx, I figured out, that if I put logging to debug, I see it in the HA Logs via the UI.

[serdar-22]

hello

since the update i have the issue, that only sometimes can open the garage door.

i have to click at least 5-6 times, that sometimes garage door will open.
i dont found any errors in the log.

thank you very much for your support

[serdar-22]

sorry after restart its ok 👍🏾

[Pr0mises]

v2.3 is working for me. Good job !

[spainpiio]

All of a sudden, all of my dimmer switches have disappeared and are shown as unavailable.
The sensors of these dimmers, however, are available.
They are Fibaro & Qubino dimmers that work directly in Homee.
I have already deleted the integration and reinstalled, restarted....
Does anyone have any ideas?

[Taraman17]

Can you set the logging to info and post the logs from HACS-homee?
