Traceback Error #11

Closed B3voholic closed 6 years ago

B3voholic commented 6 years ago

Hello, I'm trying to get my switchmate working and I keep getting the following error. I was wondering if anyone had any tips. The error is following.

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/homeassistant/.homeassistant/shell/switchmate.py", line 283, in <module>
    mac_address = arguments['<mac_address>']
KeyError: '<mac_address>'

Any help is appreciated.

I'm not familiar with homeassistant, so I'm not sure what it's trying to do here. When do you receive the error?

B3voholic commented 6 years ago

I'm trying to flip the switch using the command line and it's giving that error. I'm running this command sudo /home/homeassistant/.homeassistant/shell/switchmate.py XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX none switch on and it's giving me that message. I have copied your switchmate.py exactly.

I'm afraid I'll never get around to setting up Home Assistant and trying this myself. @B3voholic Let me know if you still care about this issue, or if I should just close it.

Of course, if someone else wants to help out, please do!

you probably have to execute the command the same way you would in the terminal.. sudo python3 /home/homeassistant/.homeassistant/shell/switchmate.py XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX switch on
