Python plugin: Sonoff-Tasmota + Other devices supporting MQTT Discovery

[emontnemery]

Fixed now.

[effinG]

I have the same settings, and no devices are found.

Setup: RPi3, latest beta Domoticz, done the setoption19 1 thingy, MQTT up and running.

Sonoff setup:
MQTT Host 192.168.0.124
MQTT Port 1883
MQTT Client & Fallback Topic DVES_AF76EE
MQTT User
MQTT Topic sonoff35 (every Sonoff has it's own Topic)
MQTT Group Topic sonoffs
MQTT Full Topic cmnd/sonoff35/

Full topic: %prefix%/%topic%/


Domoticz setup:
MQTT Server address:localhost
Port: 1883
Username:
Password:
Discovery topic: sonoffs
Ignored device topics (comma separated): tasmota/sonoff

What is wrong with this setup?

Edit:

I also have this error message in the log:

2018-06-03 11:30:25.656 (MQTT discovery) Warning: could not load plugin options '' as JSON object

What could this mean ? How can I solve this ?

Hi - I have the exact same issue but can't find a solution - what did you do to get it working? Or can anyone else advise what causes the error above?

[emontnemery]

effing: You need to update to the latest version of the plugin where this should be fixed

[peterenderest]

I installed this plugin last week with the latest beta release
Initially I connected my sonoff devices via the standard way using dummy/virtual devices, but I now switched everything to the new plugin
The plugin is working very good but I noticed that for a specific sonoff device you see an entry in the logging of that device every 5 minutes. So if the device is off, it is reported every 5 minutes as off
For other plugins/devices you only see a logging when the state has changed, eg if the device is off for 5 hours and then turned on, you see 1 logging only at the time the device turned on (until it is switched off again ofcourse)
How can I remove the multiple entries every 5 minutes with same state?

Hi,

Installed latest version of the plugin 1hour ago, latest domoticz version (4.10717) and I'm getting the "2019-05-12 23:12:33.758 (espscsgate) Warning: could not load plugin options '' as JSON object" message...tips?

[joostnl]

Your plugin is working great for my sonoff/blitzwolf powerplug.
The on/off device is added auto.

Only the power devices not, any hint?
Sorry do you mean with no sensors supported in the op that it doesn't work

With the latest version of the plugin and Tasmota version 6.7.1 there are extra 'switches' discovered. For instance, I have already a discovered switch with the name "Lamp" and then it discovers an extra switch with the name "Lamp Button" which will do....nothing when you switch it.
Any idea? I now deleted them, but I suppose they will be discovered again when I restart Domoticz.

Hi all,

I am trying to tackle the issue of setting my first LSC Smart Filament Bulb in Domoticz. I would appreciate if someone points me towards error in configuration (i've tried multiple combinations of naming the topic and device itself); I am not sure whether I am configuring it wrong, or should I look for older versions of Tasmota, as it seems it worked for others previously? I can control device fine from it's own IP address; my only problem is that I can't add it to DOmoticz - yet I seem to see device in logs.

I have flashed the bulb with Tasmota 7.0.0.3:

I appreciate your help.

@apatrid: did you look in Domoticz device database? (Setup > devices)

[apatrid]

yes, sure. I managed to add them via old method, but mqtt discovery failed. i also managed to brick one of them with attempting to upload sonoff 6.1.1 firmware; now it briefly flashes some esp32 wifi hotspot but it won't turn on nor it will allow me to really connect to wifi; seems bricked. oh well

i managed to add other two only after updating with OTAto tasmota 7.1.1 and getting domoticz menu.

[mosjonathan]

hello,

i installed and configured this plugin and it is working.

devices are discovered and the status is updating.

now i'm trying to switch a rgbww device(action lsc gu10) with tasmota 7.1.2.6 with dzvents but that is not working.

can u tell me how to do that in dzvents?

[johansson]

I got into testing a Sonoff Basic switch with Tasmota firmware, but my Domoticz doesn't detect any devices - any ideas what might be the issue?

I installed the plugin as per the instructions on the first page and added MQTT discovery into the hardware page. So far so good, but no devices are visible in devices list, nor is the MQTT discovery seen in the hardware list of the device page sidebar:

In log there's something related to this, not sure if that's correct amount of data:

The Sonoff switch itself can be controlled and configured through browser, ie it's in the same network and so on:

Which firmware of the sonoff did you install? Make sure you select a bin version that supports the mqttdiscovery.
https://github.com/arendst/Tasmota/blob ... /BUILDS.md

At first I didn't realize that I needed a full version to get this to work. In the mean time I found an alternative that works for all binary files. Recovery in domoticz with this plugin is excellent: Tasmoticz
https://github.com/joba-1/Tasmoticz
I added 6 temperature sensors to the basic switch and they were immediately recognized within domoticz

[johansson]

Perfect, that was it - thanks Jake! I got the Sonoff pre-flashed, so didn't pay any attention to the firmware: downloaded tasmota.bin from http://thehackbox.org/tasmota/, uploaded it to switch and immediately it shows up in Domoticz. Case closed.

[deennoo]

I have an issue with this plugin who makes my re-use my sonoff 1st gen and flash action wifi plug.

This plugin update again and again device status even if there is no change.

Not very usefull and this use log for nothing

[mvveelen]

I'm using the latest version of the plugin and sometimes after a restart / update of Domoticz I get new Sonoff devices discovered.

2020-02-02 12:02:23.592 Status: (MQTT discovery) Entering work loop.
2020-02-02 12:02:23.592 Status: (MQTT discovery) Initialized version 0.0.4

Devices that were already discovered and are being used for a while now get found again. So then I delete these new discovered (double) devices.

How is this possible? Or do I have to delete the old devices and use the new devices to get rid of this "problem" ?

Hello fellow Domoticz'ers

Im running into some issues aswell, i have a bunch of Sonofss DIY mini which i flashed with the tasmota-lite.bin since it only allows max 500kb.

Im a complete newbie, but managed to do this following those youtube guides: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w7QhsFqBr30 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t1yHmKZTsgE and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fzEDFmB0UYU Big up to their comprehencive vids!

I am running the latest Domoticz version on a Raspberry pi 3, i have flashed the sonoffs DIY mini's with tasmota, installed mousquitto MQTT broker with latest updates/upgrades.

My devices appear in domoticz, but only like 1 out of 15 try's to switch my lights on/of from domoticz does come trough, when connecting directly to the tasmota trough browser ip i can switch on/off without any hassle.

In my opinion there is somthing going on with my MQTT broker, since i dont see anything unusual in the tasmota logs, i havent managed yet to get a view of the MQTT broker logs.

Some help or advice would be much apreciated!

I get the error message below and I'm looking for a solution but can't find an explanation.
Anyone know what's going on here?
