Hi,
@dressie When you enable Accept new Hardware Devices and go to the Hardware page, klik the Ikea Tradfri Hardware en klik update ?

@moroen, yust moved from the "old" plugin with the service to the new pycoap version.
Installed perfect (after installing the go compiler) only had to recreate my devices in domoticz (as suggested to dressie).
Nice work

Regards,
Peer

I tried that, but nothing works. So, to make sure my domoticz isn't broken, I added Hue as hardware. And devices are being created.
I do not see antyhing in the logs, so I'll go and check that out.

Had to fix my logging, no idea why that messed up. But here is the log when I enable the hardware:

Hey guys,

I'm trying to make the plugin work for my install but I think I'm missing something. I'm really... really... not into linux, so I'm trying the best I can, but I can't get it to work. I've managed to make domoticz work and I have a readout of my smart-meter, but I want to expand the functionalities to Tradfri as well.

I've followed your manual which is it pretty clear I think, and I think I have a working connection with my Tradfri hub as you can see here:

(env) pi@raspberrypi:~ $ tradfri list
Lights:

Sockets:
65537: TRADFRI outlet (TRADFRI control outlet) - True

Devices:
65536: TRADFRI on/off switch (TRADFRI on/off switch) - 100

Groups:
131073: TRADFRI group - False:0 - None

The only thing is, I can't find the new type of hardware in the hardware page of Domoticz. I can see a large list of all hardware I can add, but not the IKEA-tradfri type.

What am I missing here?

It would appear that you haven't installed the plugin? The tradfri command line utility is one part of the (old) solution, you also need to install the
plugin (https://github.com/moroen/IKEA-Tradfri-plugin). If you're starting from scratch, I would recommed the new solution (https://github.com/moroen/IKEA-Tradfri- ... ree/pycoap) as the new solution doesn't require running tradfri as a service. Might I ask what kind of hardware you're running this on and if it's not a raspberry pi, which linux distro you're using?

That's it... I was looking at the old instructions, sorry about that. It worked like a charm with the instructions you posted. Thanks a lot for your effort!

Hi Moroen,

I keep getting stuck at the same point as dressie:

python3 tradfricoap.py list
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "tradfricoap.py", line 11, in <module>

I did al the updates and reinstalling off pycoap as you recommended to him but i can't seem to get past this error. Any idea's what the next step shouold be?..... i'm running this on a pi3 - and i followed your latest instruction for the an install on a pi. Thanks

Which raspbian version are you using?

Check versions and dependencies:

Code: Select all

$ python --version
$ go version

And try to install pycoap manually:

Code: Select all

$ git clone https://github.com/moroen/pycoap.git
$ cd pycoap
$ sudo -H python3 setup.py install

Please post the full output of the commands if it still doesn't work. I've verified the raspberry pi installation on a pi3 using the latest Raspbian Buster Lite-image...

M

Hello Moroen,

I had the wheel error when installing the requirements.
after reading other posts in did the following:

Code: Select all

sudo apt install golang
pip3 install -r requirements.txt

Then the error was solved, but when i go to the next step:

Code: Select all

python3 tradfricoap.py config IP KEY

I get the following:

Code: Select all

2019/12/21 22:30:20 COAP DTLS Error: Handshake timeout
CRITICAL:root:Create_ident: No data from gateway

Maybe good to know is that I am runnig the plugin v1.1 on an other rpi at the moment where it still works at the moment, could that bring any conflict maybe?

The DTLS Handshake error shows that pycoap is installed and working, it just can't connect to the gateway. The most common reason is either wrong IP or KEY... If that's not the reason, can you reach the ikea-gateway with ping? And running the old plugin i parallel on another Pi shouldn't be a problem!

After looking again I used the security id instead of the gatewayid.
Now it works for me!!

Hi, I'm new here and my English is very bad... I use the translator.
First, thank you for the effort to make this pluguin work. I have some doubts as to how it works:

1º If the house electricity goes out, when it comes again, the bulbs lights up alone. Is there any way this does not happen?

2º If i turn on the lights by the Ikea switch or turn off them, the changes don't update it in domoticz. It is right? (If I only use the dummy of each bulb in domoticz it works correctly)

This is by design from IKEA, when the power is turned on, the bulb will turn on. This has nothing to do with the plugin, and as far as I know, there is no way to change this behaviour.

If you use an IKEA switch to turn on or off a bulb, you need to set "Observe changes" to yes, and specify how often the plugin should check for an altered state (polling interval) You should avoid checking too often, as this will freeze the gateway. If you physically turn a bulb on/off by switching on/off the power to the bulb, the gateway has no way of knowing the state, and the plugin can't update to reflect the correct state.

M

I understand. Perfect, it is already solved. My time to review changes was 300 and I have not had so much patience ... Now I have lowered the time to 30. Is it a prudent time? Thank you

Hi Moroen,

I want to install the IKEA tradfri plugin on a raspberry pi (Stretch) first time.
Is your new pycoap (raspberry version) plugin sufficient?

$ cd domoticz/plugins/IKEA-Tradfri

Verify that the installed version is 0.6.2:

Is your new pycoap (raspberry version) plugin sufficient?

Installing the pycoap version is recommended for all new installations, the old plugin-service solution is about to be retired...

A potential stumbling block when installing on stretch is that you need at least version 1.5 of the go compiler. Find the current version of go with:

Code: Select all

$ go version

If it's to old, you need to install a newer version of the compiler AND make sure that the root user also uses a newer version:

Code: Select all

$ sudo -H go version

Take a look at the following issue for more information: https://github.com/moroen/IKEA-Tradfri-plugin/issues/87

You could try polling with an interval of 30, and see what happens. If your gateway suddenly stops responding, cycle the power to the gateway and try increasing the poll interval a bit...
