Need Help converting Spruce Irrigation Controller ST Device hander code to Hubitat

douglaspitman · August 17, 2020, 7:41pm

Were you able to get the Spruce controller code to work? I would like to use it so I can get off ST...

Spruce has officially supported Hubitat: Spruce Gen2 + Hubitat Connect - Spruce Support

alexdelprete · August 26, 2020, 3:54pm

Check here: Spruce Gen2 + Hubitat Connect - Spruce Support

Thanks, I forget to check the manufacturers site sometimes... I like this implementation better than what was available for ST!

i havent started this port as lthat is one of the last things on my smarttings hub.. I may if not too dififcult. Or may switch to rachio as I have one ready.

As a side note i did port the code for the sensor but have not tested it.. but here it is..

unfortunately it looks like their integration assumes you were using their app and account which i was not.. on smarthings it integrated directly to the hub without using their app.. At least it used to...

I i have to start over setting everything up I think i may switch to rachio as i am already using it in my other location and prefer their app.

Your links are for the Gen2 wifi model that connects to the Spruce Cloud. We're talking about the Gen 1 Kickstarter model that uses Zigbee and doesn't connect to Spruce's cloud at all.

ncreed · August 31, 2020, 6:57am

No, I am not able to get it working in a meaningful way with the driver I have. It needs work to tweak it to actually control each zone individually.

ncreed · August 31, 2020, 7:00am

The Gen 1 controller never required a Spruce account of any kind, nor did it require any connections to Spruce's cloud. All scheduling was done in the SmartThings app. Here's the SmartThings device handler driver for it.

https://raw.githubusercontent.com/PlaidSystems/Spruce_Gen1-SmartThings/master/devicetypes/plaidsystems/spruce-controller.src/spruce-controller.groovy

Edit: This link is now dead because Spruce moved their code. This is the link for the working drivers. Spruce irrigation ver 1 zigbee now working in hubitat (non wifi version)

kahn-hubitat · August 31, 2020, 1:26pm

Not sure at all what youre talking about
I never said the code was the controller app. The above device type is only the zigbee temp moisture sensor and It IS local and does not contact the cloud.

kahn-hubitat · September 3, 2020, 9:36pm

I.have decided to dump spruce as it seems there is not even the source for the device handler for the zigbee spruce controller. Only a smart app and device handlers for the moisture sensors.

kahn-hubitat · September 3, 2020, 9:37pm

404 error do you have the source saved sonewhere

kahn-hubitat · September 3, 2020, 9:44pm

ok found an older version of the controller online but the device info blows up hubitat

ie
Value too long for column "ENDPOINT_ID VARCHAR(2)": "'1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18' (44)"; SQL statement: INSERT INTO FINGERPRINT(DEVICE_TYPE_ID, PROFILE_ID, ENDPOINT_ID, IN_CLUSTERS, OUT_CLUSTERS, MANUFACTURER, MODEL, DEVICE_JOIN_NAME, DEVICE_ID, MFR, PROD, CONTROLLER_TYPE) VALUES(?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?) [22001-197]

will try cutting it to 12 zones and see if i can get it to install

kahn-hubitat · September 3, 2020, 10:02pm

ok first port done.. but this is not the spruce controlller app that was in smarthings but a 3rd party written app.. it probably will add minimal control.. ie turn on daily on a schedule or by moisture content.. but no settings for weather soil type etc etc.

If someone has the source for the actually smartapp used on smartthings let me know.

I will start testing it tomorrow.

Sorry for that bad link khan, looks like they pulled my previous links to update their device handler to work with the new ST app. The current Controller device handler code is here:

https://raw.githubusercontent.com/PlaidSystems/Spruce_Gen1-SmartThings/master/devicetypes/plaidsystems/spruce-controller-sst.src/spruce-controller-sst.groovy

More of their docs and the smartapp here

Unfortunately, it looks like in order to get anything to work right, it needs the zones to be created as child devices, which I cannot get working properly.

kahn-hubitat · September 11, 2020, 9:27pm

Search for my thread on spruce. I got it working perfectly

kahn-hubitat · September 12, 2020, 12:59am

ncreed · September 14, 2020, 6:50pm

This is it. Got it working perfectly. Thanks Khan!

jeff.lilliquist · September 15, 2020, 5:03am

I get a "not found" error when I use your links.

Here's the code you need Spruce irrigation ver 1 zigbee now working in hubitat (non wifi version)
