Aqara stateless switch not working

[broadcastthebadger]

Aqara stateless switch not working. Homebridge logs show that MQTT messages are being received by MQTTThing but the switch values are causing a problem. Having followed the guide on how to change the default switch values, the problem continues. Config and logs below...

Config file: "type": "statelessProgrammableSwitch", "name": "4 Way Switch", "username": "pi", "password": "Architects", "logMqtt": true, "topics": { "getOnline": "zigbee2mqtt/bridge/state", "getSwitch": "zigbee2mqtt/0x04cf8cdf3c791ad9", "switchValues": { "button_1_single": 0, "button_1_double": 1, "button_1_hold": 2 } }, "accessory": "mqttthing"

Logs:

[4 Way Switch] Received MQTT: zigbee2mqtt/0x04cf8cdf3c791ad9 = {"linkquality":115,"battery":100,"voltage":3116,"action":"button_1_double"} [4 Way Switch] Warning: switch received [{"linkquality":115,"battery":100,"voltage":3116,"action":"button_1_double"}] which is not in configured values {"1":0,"2":1,"L":2}

I have the 6 button Aqara Opple Switch. Able to set it up, here is my script.

Had an issue before as I need to update my Zigbee2MQTT, and re-pair the Opple Switch

{ "accessory": "mqttthing", "type": "statelessProgrammableSwitch", "name": "Room Multi Switch", "topics": { "getSwitch": [ { "topic": "zigbee2mqtt/0x04cf8cdf3c791ad9", "apply": "return JSON.parse(message).action;" }, { "topic": "zigbee2mqtt/0x04cf8cdf3c791ad9", "apply": "return JSON.parse(message).action;" }, { "topic": "zigbee2mqtt/0x04cf8cdf3c791ad9", "apply": "return JSON.parse(message).action;" }, { "topic": "zigbee2mqtt/0x04cf8cdf3c791ad9", "apply": "return JSON.parse(message).action;" }, { "topic": "zigbee2mqtt/0x04cf8cdf3c791ad9", "apply": "return JSON.parse(message).action;" }, { "topic": "zigbee2mqtt/0x04cf8cdf3c791ad9", "apply": "return JSON.parse(message).action;" } ], "getBatteryLevel": { "topic": "zigbee2mqtt/0x04cf8cdf3c791ad9", "apply": "return JSON.parse(message).battery;" }, "getStatusLowBattery": { "topic": "zigbee2mqtt/0x04cf8cdf3c791ad9", "apply": "return message < 20;" } }, "switchValues": [ [ "button_1_single", "button_1_double", "button_1_hold" ], [ "button_2_single", "button_2_double", "button_2_hold" ], [ "button_3_single", "button_3_double", "button_3_hold" ], [ "button_4_single", "button_4_double", "button_4_hold" ], [ "button_5_single", "button_5_double", "button_5_hold" ], [ "button_6_single", "button_6_double", "button_6_hold" ] ], "restrictSwitchValues": [ 0, 1, 2 ], "logMqtt": true }

@broadcastthebadger You're sending JSON to MQTT-Thing, so you need to decode this either with an apply function (https://github.com/arachnetech/homebridge-mqttthing/blob/master/docs/Configuration.md#apply-functions) or using the JSON codec (https://github.com/arachnetech/homebridge-mqttthing/blob/master/docs/Codecs.md#json-codec-json).

For the latter, you'd need to add something like:

"codec": "json",
"jsonCodec": {
    "properties": {
        "switch": "action"
    }
}

[arachnetech]

Also switchValues must be an array of 3 switch values corresponding to single-press, double-press and long-press respectively, and shouldn't be inside topics.

Confirmed: the following config works for me:

        {
            "accessory": "mqttthing",

                "getSwitch": "zigbee2mqtt/0x04cf8cdf3c791ad9"
            },
            "switchValues": [
                "button_1_single",
                "button_1_double",
                "button_1_hold"
            ],
            "codec": "json",
            "jsonCodec": {
                "properties": {
                    "switch": "action"
                }
            }
        }

Thanks, @the3future - your example shows the 'apply function' method which I'm sure would work perfectly for @broadcastthebadger too. It's slightly more flexible as you can do different/additional processing on different topics (as you're doing with 'low battery').

[broadcastthebadger]

@arachnetech thanks for the advice. I've updated my config file to match yours and read as so...

If I change the switch values to

"switchValues": [
                {
                    "button_1_single": 0,
                    "button_1_double" : 1,
                    "button_1_hold": 2
                },

Then I get this output

[arachnetech]

Could you get a single switch to work using my config?

switchValues needs to be an array of values, or an array of arrays of values for multiple switches. It shouldn't be an array of objects.

However, I think the main problem is that you've put this inside switchValues:

{
                    "codec": "json",
                    "jsonCodec": {
                        "properties": {
                            "switch": "action"
                        }
                    }
                }

codec and jsonCodec need to be at the same level as logMqtt and topics.

[broadcastthebadger]

The single setup you suggested worked fine but trying to impliment the same getswitch topic broke the configuration

Here's my config for 2 switches. Give it a try:

            "zigbee2mqtt/buttonIKEA"
        ]
    },
    "switchValues": [
        [
            "on",
