Node-Red

Yikes indeed!

Sometimes this stuff gets complicated!

I just took the plunge to node-red and for the life of me I can’t find how to setup the configuration node. I don’t see it in the list of nodes in the pallet.

What am I missing?

@csteele has a great introductory video which includes how to configure the Hubitat nodes for node-red. I'm tagging him with the request to make it public soon - it's really nice, and has step-by-step directions to setup the Hubitat nodes.

Ok, here you go...

And I made it it's own Topic:

A Node-Red Introduction for Hubitat Owners

[Screen Shot 2020-07-02 at 6.00.09 PM] A Node-Red Introduction for Hubitat Owners I created a 9 minute "Introduction..." video to help first time Node-Red experimenters get their feet under themselves. It's a brief tour of the Node-Red workspace and adding a Node to the Palette. Then there's a quick add of a flow for a Global Variable, then a second to use that variable to create a flow using Motion.

When you add the HE Nodes to the palette edit the device node and you will see the "server" entry.. click on the pencil on the right - it should bring up the Edit Hubitat Node Config node editor...

Can someone help me create a flow in node red that does this?

I’m having issues figuring out how to turn off the light with no motion on 2 sensors only after X minutes

and yes. I know I have a working rule, but I am using this as a way to learn node red

I posted a pic of a flow almost exactly like that in the main node-red thread yesterday. It just didn't have a lux switch node on the "on" branch, but that would be easy to add.

Node-RED nodes for hubitat

If you decide you want to use resettable delays in turning off the light, I would suggest using this one: Then you can reset the off timer based on additional motion like: [image] Note that with multiple motion triggers it can be tricky, depending on how the sensors react to continuous motion. If some stay "active" the whole time motion is present, and others don't, then you will need more logic to check if any=active before triggering the delayed off. As yours appear to all be the same …

I wasn’t aware there was a main thread. THANKS!

[JBrown]

Dashboard should be http://YOURIPADDRESS:1880/ui

[erktrek]

maybe also port 1880 if using the default..
