Node-RED nodes for hubitat

[rakeshg]

@YapFlapper

What is this doing? I imported the flow, but I am not sure I understand what it is for?

I think it was an answer to this:

Node-RED nodes for hubitat

Hi, on this flow, group B are B1, B2 . [Test 4] If B1 or B2 : On , then Group B : On Because group B : ON, then both B1, B2 : ON I need : Group B control On/Off both B1, B2 B1 : ON - Group B : ON, but B2 still OFF, or B2 : ON - Group B : ON, B1 still OFF, but I don't know how ? Thanks.

Has anyone else noticed that the new double-tap feature for pico remotes does not seem to be sent over to the device node? All other events are sent, just not double tap.

[erktrek]

I wasn't paying attention - it just seemed to eat taps and messed up my "button tap" subflow which traps multi-tap events on Picos and other button devices by timing the presses. The legacy driver brings back the old behavior but I had switched over to something else by that time.

I am trying to create a bar chart at the end of each day to show total usage of my AC. I am feeding this to the chart
under my msg.payload I have:
{"series":["Cooling","Fan Only","Idle","Heating"],"data":[[5],[3],[1],[0]],"labels":["date"]}

I cannot get it to graph all4 data points in a group.

Any ideas on what I have set wrong?

[erktrek]

You'll love this... just bound your json object with "[]" so..

{"series":["Cooling","Fan Only","Idle","Heating"],"data":[[5],[3],[1],[0]],"labels":["date"]}

becomes:

[{"series":["Cooling","Fan Only","Idle","Heating"],"data":[[5],[3],[1],[0]],"labels":["date"]}]

[napalmcsr]

Yup,
Worked!

Now how do I get it so it is additive to the data instead of replacing the data, I'm too lazy to create flow variables to hold it...

[erktrek]

Well you could store the chart output in a GV then parse that as you go.. adding values based on searching the "series" array of the chart object and using the resulting index value to locate and grab the related "data" array value and then feed that back into the Chart Node (set msg topic to the series entry you want and payload = new value) ... probably want to use a function node for this but seems easy enough.

[napalmcsr]

Yeah, I was hoping not to do that, but...
Thanks for the confirmation!

[erktrek]

You could create a simple msg "counter" subflow that counts messages with a given topic.. and outputs the accumulated value. You could then use that to update your chart. Note: you would have to save the counting data in a flow variable BUT it would be contained within the subflow instance.

@napalmcsr This is an example I whipped up for giggles..

Here is where I have gotten too it mixes the data with the series

Json
{"_msgid":"b6a980d9cd86bb1c","topic":"yo4","payload":[{"data":[[[10],[9],[5],[0]],[[10],[9],[5],[0]],[[10],[9],[5],[0]],[[10],[9],[5],[0]],[[10],[9],[5],[0]],[[10],[9],[5],[0]]],"series":["Cooling","Fan Only","Idle","Heating"],"labels":["6","5","4","3","2","1"]}]}

[napalmcsr]

looks like I have to transpose my arrays...

Maybe tomorrow

[napalmcsr]

Yay, got that to work, now to fix the data going in!

If you used email notifications via Gmail, and it stopped working recently (as of June 2022), it may be because Google has turned off access via less secure apps. The solution is simple (took me about 5 minutes), and is documented in this post:

Email Notifications Driver using Node/sendmail on a PI

I'm bringing this thread back to life - hopefully to help anyone else whose notifications using this driver stopped working, like mine did. When I setup sendmail, I created a dummy Gmail account and used the account option to permit "Less Secure App" access to sendmail from my SBC using the dummy account. As of May 30th, 2022, Google has turned off less secure app access. Instead, they require the use of app specific passwords, which is more secure anyway. Here are the steps needed: Login to …

thanks for posting this!! Sadly I dont think I even realized.

I just received a Third Reality Light Switch that works fine thru HE but it's status does not change in Node Red. This is the HE log:

Nothing shows in the Node Red logs when I turn switch off or on in HE. Node Red Command Node can turn on or off switch but doesn't show up in Node Red logs either. I am using the native Third Reality Switch driver.

Any suggestions?

[JohnRob]

I'm going to guess here because I'm not that well versed with Node-Red <--> Hubitat connections....
is Node-Red capturing events or logs?

[thebearmay]

In Node-Red go to the Hubitat command node and re-save the web hooks entry.

[stephen_nutt]

That did it! Thanx
