HomeWizard Wi-Fi P1 Extended

[szelessavmuhely]

Hi,

I’ve created an extended version of the HomeWizard Wi-Fi P1 plugin for Domoticz and I’m looking for testers.

The goal of this plugin is to provide a more detailed and stable integration compared to the currently available version.

Main differences:

More detailed data (per phase voltage, current, power)

Better handling of import/export and tariffs

More consistent device structure in Domoticz

Multi-language support (all Domoticz languages)

Improved stability

GitHub:
https://github.com/szelessavalapitvany/ ... n-Extended

What I’m looking for:

General testing (installation, stability)

Feedback on device structure and values

Bug reports / edge cases

Suggestions for improvements

If you already use a HomeWizard P1 meter with Domoticz, your feedback would be especially valuable.

Thanks in advance!

I have all that already with http poller plugin.

Yes, this plugin focuses on providing a simple, ready-to-use solution with automatic setup.

I am using the original plugin, and found that the current usage value is a factor 10 too high, both the separate phase values, and also the Total.
Does this new plugin fix that?

[manjh]

I'm thinking to join your test program, but am unsure if I can install alongside with the current plugin.
Please advise.

[manjh]

Any thoughts?
If you want/need a tester community, it is important to be responsive!

Done, but no response sofar...

OK, even though it remains very silent on your side, I decided to go ahead and install.
Dit it according to the instructions (manual install), restarted Domoticz. But I cannot see a new entry in the list of hardware devices.
Please help.

Sorry for the late reply. Notifications were enabled for this topic, but for some reason I didn't receive any notification about your post.

If the issue is still relevant, could you please check the Domoticz log immediately after restarting Domoticz and post any errors related to the plugin?

It would also be helpful to know:

* What device/platform are you running Domoticz on?
* Which Domoticz version are you using?

There is a 99% chance that the problem is related either to JSON API compatibility or to loading the `from distutils.version import LooseVersion` module.

The plugin was modified a few days ago to improve compatibility with Domoticz 2023.2 and newer versions.

If you post the startup log here, we should be able to identify the exact problem.

I must have done something wrong, but don't see what.
Installed the plugin according to the instructions, and restarted Domoticz.

But then, on the hardware page, I can see two entries for the HomeWizard plugin, and neither shows the word "Extended".
I can see the HomeWIzard Wifi P1 meter, and the HomeWizard Electric P1 meter.

Am I missing something?

It is very likely that the plugin is installed twice. Access the `domoticz/plugins` directory via FTP and check, or use the console—run the command `cd domoticz/plugins/` followed by `dir`—and verify if the plugin folder appears twice.

[manjh]

Twice... I think I misinformed you.

When I click the dropdown and look for HomeWizard, I can see two choices:

Code: Select all

HomeWizard Electric P1 meter
HomeWizard Wifi P1 meter

Which of the two is your plugin?
When I installed the plugin, I first removed the old installation.
This is what I see now in the plugin directory:

Code: Select all

HomeWizard-Wifi-p1-plugin
HomeWizard-Wifi-p1-plugin-Extended

[manjh]

OK, got it. For some reason I expected a different name.

I've used the Electric version, but now see errors:

Should I worry, or will this fix over time after the first startup?

Also, will I be able to run both P1 plugins at the same time? Some of my scripts still work with the old devices, and I donot want to change anything for now.

[manjh]

It doesn't fix over time. When I look at the timestamp, it looks like there are three error messages at each run.
