zwavejs2mqtt

[AllesVanZelf]

I'm not sure if this is a specific zwavejs2mqtt problem, a docker problem, or Ubuntu problem.

I'm migrating my installation from different pi's to one Intel Nuc. On this I'm running Ubuntu server 21.04. I use Dockers for zigbee2mqtt, domoticz and zwavejs2mqtt. Zigbee and zwavejs are running well and they do report to Mosquitto.
I'm able to control my lights with Zwavejs2mqtt and from the old Domoticz to Zwavejs2mqtt via the plugin.

The problem is this:
In docker Domoticz Zwavejs2mqtt plugin is installed and configured. But my devices are not accessible. In the log I see errors like:

Code: Select all

It looks like there is a problem with the python version. Ubuntu has python3.9 installed and Domoticz expects python3.7. Is that the problem?
Is it possible to fix this?

Try sudo for installing the requirements (like yaml module)

Code: Select all

sudo pip3 install -r requirements.txt

[AllesVanZelf]

I tried that.
I removed Domoticz docker and installed direct on the system. Now it is working.

I have a strange problem with this plugin. I have enabled logging, I see all sorts off messages, including device-id's and names. Zwave-MQTT is working in Node-Red, however there are no devices created in Domoticz.

I tried two instances of Domoticz. The second one as a docker image without any other hardware or configuration.

What am i doing wrong?

I Think Problem Solved! Important: Use "zwave" as prefix!

What I am doing wrong.
I have installed Mosquitto, zwavejs2Mqtt, Dockers and the plugin for Domoticz.
Zwavejs2Mqtt is running and I have made all interviews and changed the device names, When I am activating the plugin in Domoticz nothing happens. I was expecting that Domoticz is integrating the devices from zwavejs2mqtt. This is not the case and I have no clue what to do next. Attached the Domoticz protocol which looks good for me

Any help is wellcome

Homeassistant autodiscovery has just been implemented in the latest beta. That will completely replace the plugin. If you are running the latest beta, you can test it using the mqtt hardware.

My recommendation is to use that, if all your devices are supported and functional, or to wait until it's final as it will replace the plugin.

Yes I am running the latest beta. Didn't know that the latest beta already has the implementation. My fault. What do you recommend? Remove the directory under Domoticz plugins? Fact is that the auto discovery is not working. Any ideas what the settings are that the plugin will work? Does the broker address need a port number? I have testet more or less all setting without any result. I have testet the broker as well. Mosquitto is responding as expected.

[heggink]

Difficult to say as I am on vacation ATM. You do need a broker address an port for the plugin. Have you switched on full debug in the plugin?

Even with the latest beta version Domoticz needs the installation of the plugin. I did a fully new installation but no devices are created. Something seems to be wrong. The zwavejs Driver works perfect. The integration into Domoticz not really.

[heggink]

Ok, so if zwavejs is working (ie you can switch devices and can see updates from devices in the log), next check mqtt. There is a mosquito browser utility that allows you to see what messages are being sent to mqtt. There should be 2 main topics: homeassistant and zwave. Under these topics, all device definitions and device opdates should appear.

Any idea what to do once we follow that link ? The install options for Rpi are merely an "appimage" which seems to do nothing if I download it , make it executable and click it. However it did create a pretty zero byte file in the Downloads folder. I had a scout on the github page but there isn't much there regarding usage.

[heggink]

I could install it fine under both Windows and Ubuntu.

... I was expecting that Domoticz is integrating the devices from zwavejs2mqtt. This is not the case and I have no clue what to do next. ...

I'm not sure if that is supposed to happen. I had to go to devices and one by one add them to Domoticz. Is that what you expect?

I switched from OpenZwave to ZwaveJS2Mqtt and named the ZwaveJS devices same as the OPenZwave devices. After some testing I removed OpenZwave.

Does anyone know how I get rid of this error message in Domoticz Log? What is the problem with this? I have seen this error log on different places in this thread:

Is there a seperate place for discussing the AutoDiscover and issues encountered?
I've setup ZWAVEJS2MQTT in a test environment and using the latest Domoticz development version 2021.1 (build 13501) and all populated pretty nicely but I have encountered an issue with and FIBARO Roller Shutter FGRM222:
When clicking on the Slide it works fine and move to the position but when clicking the Close or Open part of the Device I get this in ZWAVEJS2MQTT:

Code: Select all

2021-09-21 14:09:34.101 INFO MQTT: Message received on zwave/nodeID_16/38/0/targetValue/set: 'OPEN'

The received message in MQTT is:

Code: Select all

zwave/nodeID_16/38/0/targetValue/set    OPEN (or CLOSE)

Any idea what to check next?
Thanks

Better open a separate topic for ZwaveJS2MQTT Autodiscovery
Even better to report this in slack

Would be happy to either way ...hence the opening question.
I don't use slack at the moment and guess I need to receive an invite for that?

In the mean time I have tested with publishing using MQTT Explorer the following:

• 99 (MaxDimLevel-1) in stead of CLOSE
• 0 in stead of OPEN

... and that works fine.
So maybe that is needed for this?

@MOD: Please feel free to split these posts off into a new topic when that is "better".
