Can't add content from Google Home

SimonSR commented 3 years ago

Hi, I am having trouble getting this to work. I can add content using the testing method "python3 ./hass_radarr_search_by_voice.py "Artemis Fowl" "0". The movie does show up in Radarr, but I am unable to use voice commands to add content. I have followed the rest of the setup, and as far as I can see, everything is setup correctly, but for the life of me, I can't figure out why voice commands don't work. Google responds correctly, so I am pretty sure IFTTT is setup correctly. Running HA in docker, Radarr/Sonarr V3

my configuration.yaml file: [HomeAssistant] server_url = http://192.168.*.*:8123 api_key = token = **** scripts_path = /PATH_TO_YOUR_CONFIG/scripts speaker_entity = media_player.stue tts_service = google_translate

[Radarr] server_url = http://192.168.*.*:7878 api_key = **** root_directory = /home/debian-transmission/Downloads/10TB/Film profile_id = 4

[Sonarr] server_url = http://192.168.*.*:8989 api_key = ** root_directory = /home/debian-transmission/Downloads/10TB/TV-Serier profile_id = 4

[Services] omdb_api_key = * tmdmid_api_key_v3 = ***

Hi, The problem might be in the automation that is listening for the "ifttt_webhook_received" event. Here's how you can debug that part.

Note: Automations created in YAML must have an id assigned in order for debugging traces to be stored.

In Home Assistant UI go to Configuration > Automations and click on to edit your automation that is listening for the "ifttt_webhook_received" event. In the example is called "ITFTTMovies". There you can see the Traces left by the last time the automation was run.

In case the automation has never run then the problem is how the automation is defined, particularly the event it's listening for.

Assuming it runs when you run the IFTTT applet by voice then you can inspect it receives the correct data (movie title) and calls the shell script correctly.

I'm attaching some screenshots of my setup. I've changed the automation name and some variable names since I wrote the sample files, I also placed my scripts in different paths but the functionality is the same.

You can click on each step of the automation

In the last screenshot you can se a common error where the shell script is missing execution permissions.

Thanks for getting back to me. It seems the automation is running as it's supposed to, as I can see the value is being sent correctly. stepdetails and no errors in the trace trace_timeline I do, however get an error in the home-assistant.log: 2021-08-11 07:30:35 ERROR (MainThread) [homeassistant.components.shell_command] Error running command: /bin/bash /homeassistant/scripts/download.sh "{{movie}}" 0, return code: 127 NoneType: None

Ok, so everything else works, but it's not running the python script. After searching for the error code I believe the issue is that HA is running inside a docker container and running python scripts is limited in some ways.

I can only test this on my setup which is using Home Assistant Core, not a docker version nor Hassio. The part of using Docker in the "Setup Instructions" was contributed by someone else, so unfortunately I can't guarantee it works nor test it.

Like I said, I looked for that error and a common solution suggested in the Home Assistant forums is that instead of having a shell command running the python script within the environment of your HA docker container, you can run a ssh command to login into your host machine and run the python script there. Does that make sense?. The python script would be in a path of your host machine of course, and the host machine should be able to run python scripts.

I don't know if this is something you would like to try. There might be a simpler solution, but this is what I found. This seems to be a very well documented guide SSH’ing from a command line sensor or shell command

If you end up doing this or finding a solution It would be nice to know.

Thanks again. I ended up installing Home Assistant Core instead. Did have the same error at first though, but I modified shellcommand.yaml to this:

download_movie: /home/homeassistant/.homeassistant/scripts/./download.sh "{{movie}}" 0 search_movie: /home/homeassistant/.homeassistant/scripts/./download.sh "{{movie}}" 1 download_option: /home/homeassistant/.homeassistant/scripts/./download.sh "{{option}}" 2 download_tvshow: /home/homeassistant/.homeassistant/scripts/./download_tvshow.sh "{{tvshow}}" 0 future

And now it works! Thank you so much for taking the time (and for coding it in the first place)

Do you have a donation link perhaps?

I'm glad it worked. Sure, I have this donation link
