Current Version of Soma is 2.0.12

[toellbe]

Will this be still updated?

I found it in the current image (version 2.0.12) soma-connect_2.0.8_armhf.deb.gz

[toellbe]

I will give a try...

[toellbe]

Seems to work. I just had to create a fake file so that the installation script would not run into an error.

I am trying to install it inside a docker container but without success... What are all the steps that you are doing and from Wich base ?

[toellbe]

Just as it is described here on github. I just had to create an empty file: sudo nano /etc/dhcp/dhclient-enter-hooks.d/samba.

Afterwards the installation was successful sudo dpkg -i —force-all soma-connect

//btw 2.0.12 ist current. Can you also upload the .deb of 2.0.12?

[roddenshaw]

Thanks for uploading the 2.0.8 file. I decompressed it and installed it following the same steps as 1.8.7, which worked fine. Happily it seems to have solved the fundamental problem I was having with the previous version, and it has made the blind accessories much more responsive in Home. I’m hoping 2.0.12 will become available at some point, but for now it’s nice to have a stable version running.

I am not sure how works the creation of a dpkg but I think you can download the last 2.0.12 and extract what you need :)

Hi, also requesting if you could upload the .deb of 2.0.12 as I'm unfamiliar with how to extract and create a dpkg. This'll be much appreciated.

[bubez81]

hello please can someone give the link to the new version?

[roddenshaw]

Somebody posted instructions for how to extract the .deb on the Home Assistant forum. I’m running an iPad Pro as my main computer just now so I can’t do it, but maybe somebody else can take a crack at it: https://community.home-assistant.io/t/soma-smart-shades-2/202224

Also I spoke to somebody at Soma about this a few months ago and he said he would provide the .deb to the person who created this, but I don’t know if that ever happened.

[bubez81]

ok today I'll extract the deb and post it here

Oh wow thanks @bubez81 and @roddenshaw, been waiting for progress regarding this. Could you also post the step by step instructions on how to update this plugin with it already installed on version 1.8.37? Basically a noob, would definitely be grateful

[bubez81]

here is the deb file https://www.dropbox.com/s/3ock4c79yzee1np/soma-connect_2.1.1_armhf.deb?dl=0

to update simply "sudo dpkg --install soma-connect.deb"

[roddenshaw]

My system seems to think this is actually. 2.0.8, which I already have installed. Odd.

[roddenshaw]

Worked it out. The command I needed was sudo dpkg --install soma-connect_2.1.1_armhf.deb?dl=0. I’m having other problems but hopefully I’ll work those out.

[roddenshaw]

I had to install Samba to get the soma-connect service up and running, but I can’t add it to HomeKit (it doesn’t appear and the code does nothing). Is anybody else having problems?

[mmmrvn]

sudo dpkg --install soma-connect.deb

But how do you point it to the .deb? When I command "sudo dpkg --install soma-connect_2.1.1_armhf.deb?dl=0" it tells me that there's no such file or directory

[mmmrvn]

"sudo wget https://github.com/hoobs-org/soma-connect/releases/download/2.1.1/soma-connect_2.1.1_armhf.deb -O soma-connect.deb" doesn't work either. Results in Error 404 Not Found.

[bubez81]

sorry this is the package I provided https://www.dropbox.com/s/3ock4c79yzee1np/soma-connect_2.1.1_armhf.deb?dl=0

you have to download it and than sudo dpkg --install soma-connect_2.1.1_armhf.deb

[bubez81]

sadly I can't try the app because I need to change the port 3000 and for now the application does not allow it
