Issue since upgrade to 23.2.4

[fifinski]

Hello, Since i upgraded and restarted eBUSD on newest HomeAssistant i have a problem with starting addon: Addon is still telling me : Missing option 'mode' in root in eBUSd (2ad9b828_ebusd). This option is not/was not needed in previous releases. For now - no matter which option from available ( enh ens udp ) i will choose, ebus is not connecting with a device.

Thanx for helping.

[tjorim]

Please select the correct protocol/mode and update the network_device to not include it (thus only IP address and port).

That's not related to the add-on but ebusd itself (so out of scope).

I have the same error, because we use clean (TCP) protocole - then the device string is clean - without ENS, UDP or ENH

[albertsj]

Running ebusd without a „mode“ is a valid option for serial devices. See https://github.com/john30/ebusd/wiki/2.-Run#device-options

Exactly. But until version 23.2.3 the MODE parameter was not required. Now it is required and the add-on in this version 23.2.4 has become unusable for some users

[hvorragend]

Same problem here. ens, enh and udp are just optional.

You can see here that we need another (a default) value: https://github.com/john30/ebusd/wiki/2.-Run

DEVICE for serial device (e.g. /dev/ttyUSB0, for all other serial adapters like adapter v2 as well as non-enhanced mode), or

I have just downgraded to previous version ...

[henkela]

Same here. Local USB Connection. Configuration forces selection of mode which produces --device=ens:/dev/ttyUSB0 Where it should just be --device=/dev/ttyUSB0

Please either make mode optional again or add an option for this case.

[tjorim]

I did not know the option was enforced now, I opened a PR to fix it: https://github.com/LukasGrebe/ha-addons/pull/116

[pvyleta]

Apologies, I was not aware the mode is only relevant for network connection. I added it to be mandatory to make it more straightforward for network connections, not realising I am breaking it for serial connection.

Hi! How did you do it? Explain me. Thk

[fifinski]

@Kentrp

You need to have backup made during upgrade

[xjols]

Same problem here with the required mode after upgrade. I used TCP connection until last version, without mode selection using https://github.com/danielkucera/esp-arduino-ebus ebus wifi server interface that not suport UDP. I swiched to enh mode but I have some bus errors in enhanced

[xjols]

I think that in mode selection configuration page of the add-on, with the options enh, ens and udp needs another four otion with "default". In previous add-on versions, none of the options are selected by default. If you selected any of the options, it can't not be unselected, and only have option to select any of the other options, but not none. And in this case the only option to return to default "none" option is "return to default settings".

@tjorim when can we get the new version without the required mode?

[tjorim]

I needed one more approval of a contributor which just happened. PR has been merged and the update is available. After updating you will need to remove the mode option by clicking on the three dots and selecting Edit in YAML.

[dmarczydlo]

@tjorim awesome!. Great job!

[Kentrp]

@tjorim, now work correct 👍
