Yes it is better not letting me do PR, haha.
Better wait indeed. Thanks anyway

Thanks, i tried my best, lots of steps and if you never used it, like me, it is a bit overwhelming, so thank you very much for pointing me in the right direction. I hope all is received in good order and everyone can use it...

A PR? Yes i like to do that so everyone can use it, but i have no idea how to do this, I am at github, then i click new pull request, because i think that is what i need to do, but the button is grayed out. It says i can compare branches? So im stuck there. Then i read "Contributing to Domoticz" but ...

Oh well, i changed the script a bit, so it will not look if domoticz service is running, but it just stops it anyway, if it is running or not, this works...

Well i also have difficulties:
>> Starting Domoticz beta Update
>> Script: updatebeta (Directory: /home/xxxxx/domoticz)
>> Validating environment...
>> Environment validation passed (arch: x86_64, OS: linux)
>> Checking package dependencies...
>> All required packages are already installed ...

I used ai to make a python plugin for my google speakers, so Domoticz can "speak" notifications. It creates a mp3 and then talks. Very long sentences is possible. It is added as an notification subsytem. Works great !

I used it to get as close to a "feeling" temperature inside the house. It uses ...

I see on https://www.domoticz.com/downloads/ latest beta is 16776.
So i did a ./updatebeta but it does not update to a new version when i look in the "About" page, still the same version number. 16752.
So then i manually did:
wget -4 -q -O domoticz_beta.tgz --no-check-certificate "https://www ...

Got it, change the domoticz.db file, and now the lights have a correct warm/white wheel, and rgb wheel: Thanks for the plugin

1. Add "Yeelight LED" hardware in domoticz
2. Restore bulb to factory settings
3. Add bulb to Yeelight app on your phone and enable LAN managment

Don't add the bulb with the "Add light" in domoticz!!! The bulb gets detected automatically in the device list as RGBWW device (not used devices)

So i ...

Thank you for the reply.
I figured it out, using venv inside the plugin, i now have venv for every plugin that uses python packages seperated in their own plugin directory.
Im trying to see if it is possible that domoticz looks to the venv per plugin, instead of using the pythonpath, so far no luck ...

Due to latest ubuntu 24.04 everything python is f$@#% up. Got everything python working again, but not for broadlink.
I get:
Error: RM2: (Broadlink) failed to load 'plugin.py', Python Path used was '/home/ubuntu/domoticz/plugins/Broadlink/:/home/ubuntu/domoticz/plugins/domoticzPythonVenv:/home ...

Thank you !

Aha, so latest Domoticz beta let's us do:

Spoiler: show

New release '24.04.2 LTS' available.
Run 'do-release-upgrade' to upgrade to it.

Or is that a wrong assumption?

No docker, im testing docker for many months on my test machine, but i do not seem to get it working with other containers, like a container with homebridge, but that is something else. So just on linux with static ip and no redirect-url. Ofcourse no scopes, no token generator, that is what domoticz ...

Yes, again thank you very much for all the hard work, making it going along with the future

@JurgenLB fixed the issue here:

Not for me. I'm on domoticz beta 16626. I always get errors after a couple of hours.
2025-04-15 14:11:13.036 Error: Netatmo: Error data ... url: https://api.netatmo.com/api/homesdata?&get_favorites=true&, response ...

Waited a few hours and turned the hardware back on.
So i did the login again, granted permission. Then restarted domoticz and it seems to be working again.
I just hope i do not have to do this every time i restart the computer. We'll see.

Restarted the domoticz.service and i spoke too soon got error again:
Netatmo Thuis: Invalid/no data received (refresh tokens)... HTTP/2 403

So i now disabled the netatmo hardware and see what happends if i enable it after 2 hours or so...
