Closed Boia11 closed 2 years ago

Boia11 commented 3 years ago

Hi! When I try to refresh device-list nothing happered but I need to use manual entry because "Failed to request device-list!" but sometimes the node forbidden user-friendly name and stop working after deploy.

I use Home Assistant OS 6.1 on RPi 4 with Node-RED Add-on 9.2.1 and latest version of this plugin (0.19.2)

It should work after your first deployment, if this is the correct name that is used in the mqtt messages. Unfortunately i havn't had a chance to look at the problem that it does not fetch in Home Assistant. I only know that HA host the http endpoint on a different base URL but without testing gear I was not able to resolve the issue.

You could host node-red standalone and than you should be able to fetch the device names.

No no, it works the first time when deployed, but if you make a mistake and open the node (without modifying it like the video), the node forgets the device that I entered manually and when you deploy nodes stop working.

For developing&testing you can use the system image of HASSOS: Home Assistant Operating System and virtualize the OS (based on AlpineOS), you don't need buy specific hardware

Fix for querying the device list is implemented in #119 and should be shipped with the 0.19.5 release in the next few days.

For the broken fallback, I opened a new issue: #119

@Boia11 thanks for the hint with HASSOS - I tested it with Home Assistant as well.
