How-to

[j3r13]

Hi, Thank you for contributing SomfyProtect2MQTT it works very well with HA.

The only thing missing, in my opinion, is a good howto. In particular the explanation of the docker version. Apparently the docker version expects an already present and completed config.yalm and of course a working MQTT installation in Docker. All this is not described in the readme/howto. I would like to write a good howto for the docker version. How can I contribute?

Hello,

I provide a Docker but I have never use it. A how-to is welcome. You fork the repository, Update the Readme file to explain the docker version (or make a new one dedicated to Docker) Then commit the file, make a PR (Pull request in my repo) and that's all.

Hello, I'm experiencing issue to set it up. I figured out the config file and now the docker is starting but i don't manage to configure MQTT on HA in order to connect. I have a connection failure :(

Hello, I would be happy to get current version of the document. I achieve to set up a mqtt brocker, started python3 main.py with -c option but there's no entities appearing in home assistant. I don't know what I am doing wrong

@kahatie Thanks for you config file. Do you think it would be a good idea to put your docker-compose file as default docker-compose in this repo ?

[kahatie]

i think it can be help people for more easy install

my mosquitto.conf

persistence true
persistence_location /mosquitto/data/
log_dest file /mosquitto/log/mosquitto.log
connection_messages false
per_listener_settings true

# exposed default port
listener 1883 0.0.0.0
allow_anonymous false
password_file /mosquitto/config/passwd

# internal healcheck
listener 1880 127.0.0.1
allow_anonymous true

@Minims Bonjour, j'ai une petite question: comment faire pour 2 alarmes ? J'en suis content, cela fonctionne bien et j'aimerai prendre la même pour un autre domicile. Faut-il / peut-on installer 2 fois le même module complémentaire ? Désolé si ma question est bête mais je débute. Merci.

@paulo74714 it's supposed to worked by design.

In config, define both zones like this :

# Zones Label to check
  sites:
    - Maison
    - Maison2

@Minims merci / tks, je vais essayer / I'll try.
