Python plugin: Presence detection from wireless router

[Prinsje]

Did delete and re-added iDetect in the Hardware section. For some strange reason, no iDetect-related devices were created (old iDetect Devices were obviously removed as part of deletion). Anybody having a quick work-around? Thanks.

A few things to check:
- Is "Accept new hardware devices" enabled in the Domoticz Settings?
- Are there any typos or syntax errors in the configuration string for devices to monitor?

To dig deeper you can enable debug mode and look at (or share) the log.

Thanks for your prompt response EscApe.
All new hardware devices are allowed. Log provides following syntax error:

It looks like the plugin is not even starting. Strange that it throws a syntaxerror. You could try completely removing the plugin from the file system and reinstalling, just in case a file was modified. Does your installation meet the requirements (installed modules) and are you running a supported python version (tested with 3.7)?

Yep, deletion and re-installation was successfull. Thanks EscApe!
Devices are now listed in the device section again. Next item to solve is how to ensure that the UDM Pro data is correctly analysed by the script - mobile devices connected via wifi remain highlighted as being present whilst disconnected for a while.

I can only speak for the ssh and ping trackers. The unifi (http) tracker was written by stas-demydiuk and I don’t know if/how it supports the UDM pro. If a specific tracker is needed then someone owning a UDM pro can add it as a pull request on GitHub.

I'm running Domoticz in Docker and I can't get this plugin to work.

I have installed the plugin according to the guide, but i'm getting the below error:

Code: Select all

2022-01-08 20:33:01.447 Error: Presence detection: Missing paramiko module required for ssh. Install it using: sudo pip3 install paramiko

2022-01-08 20:33:01.448 Error: Presence detection: Missing paramiko module required for ssh. Install it using: sudo pip3 install paramiko

I have installed paramiko locally, but that didn't do the trick, so I used the following command to install paramiko inside docker container:

Code: Select all

docker exec -it domoticz pip3 install paramiko

But then i'm getting the following error:

Anybody an idea to get the plugin working?

[EscApe]

I'm running Domoticz in Docker and I can't get this plugin to work.

The paramiko module (and other requirements) needs to be included in the docker container. Installing it on the host does not make it available to the container. You can create your own docker file and create the image locally to accomplish that. I don’t know if it is possible to install it afterward (like you tried)

Hi,

I updated the Omada HTTPS tracker to work with 4.x.x. It does no longer support 3.x.x, but that doesn't matter because it is end-of-life.

Cheers,
Erik

Thank you for the fast reply!

The paramiko module (and other requirements) needs to be included in the docker container. [...] You can create your own docker file and create the image locally to accomplish that.

I'm a little docker noob, so I don't really know how to do that. Do you maybve have an idea how to do that?
And which other requirements are needed for this plugin?

I don’t know if it is possible to install it afterward (like you tried)

For other pip3 modules this did work.

[EscApe]

I’m no docker expert either but managed to get it working. I can PM you my docker file. It needs some cleaning up, so I’m not going to publish it as it is. Took some trial and error to get paramiko install working because it has some complicated requirements on its own.

Thanks! Your changes have been merged on GitHub. Since I don't own any Omada based devices I am unable to test it. Please let me know if there are any problems.

Hello

What is the recommended to update the tracker list... I tried "modify" but it did nothing, so I pressed "add" and it created me new devices but the old ones are still behind...
thanks

[EscApe]

Update is fine. The “remove obsolete” setting determines what happens to devices that are no longer tracked.

Where is "udpate"?

Assuming you where asking about changing the devices to track: Go to the hardware settings for the plug in. Edit the “tags to monitors” field and press the update button. But maybe you meant something else? There is no “modify” button on the hardware settings page in my English Domoticz setup.

May-be I am facing poor translation problem. My setup is in french, when I go to hardware settings for the plugin, I have:

2022-01-19 17_46_54-Domoticz.png (6.06 KiB) Viewed 1766 times

which means "modify" (but could be update) and "delete". Is the one on the left the "update"?

[EscApe]

Looks like a different translation indeed. “Update” is “modifier”
