v4 is a development version that is still being worked on.
Thanks for the reply. When I tried to go to version 3.x.x. I just got version 4 again. What did I miss? Thanks again.
There have been some adjustments with which version can be found on which branch and the current group of users have a slightly different yaml code, so that updating is based on the default branch in this repository (which is now the dev
branch).
Ah.. I missed that. I think I understand. Thank you for your prompt replies and for a great project.
I tried downloading the yaml from the main branch and the 3.1.1 branch and install and no matter what I do, I end up on version 4.0.0
Change the package url to: github://klaasnicolaas/home-assistant-glow/home_assistant_glow.yaml@main
oh, doh! Thanks
And there are more things that I actually want to release in the main branch from developtment, but I run into quite a few problems getting the CI/CD properly done with the release drafter and the way updates work in ESPHome. Any help for that is welcome.
Still no joy. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6rp4n62YjxA

I will have a poke around, I have very little knowledge of GitHub Actions and EPSHome but will see if I can help.
How strange that this happens, I don't really have an explanation for it.
Hmm, I guess there is no fix for it then... I will keep on poking, will post here if I find a solution.
I've also installed version 4.0 and can't get i to work. Shows way too big numbers, even when the pulse setting is right. Is there a way to install previous version (manually)? Or some other help is welcome..
You can only downgrade using the yaml file from the main branch
I have tried this so many times.. never works any more :-( So confused. Could it be because the main branch is no longer default?
Wouldn't really know, would have expected that adding @main
would ensure that only the main branch is looked at 🤔 Could also just be a bug from ESPHome 🤷🏻♂️
I'm just trying again with a brand new ESP32 device, I have uninstalled EP32Home and reinstalled it.
Will also grab an ESP32 and do some testing.
Are you by any chance on Discord? Talk a little easier to debug some things.

Here I chose "Plug in to this computer" and after flashing I am running version 3.1.0
There have been some adjustments with which version can be found on which branch and the current group of users have a slightly different yaml code, so that updating is based on the default branch in this repository (which is now the
dev
branch).
Seems like having dev as the default branch leads to that if one downloads the yaml file manually from github (for initial install), one ends up downloading the 4.0.0 version. Is that on purpose? I'm not quite sure I understood your comment above, but I'm guessing that has to do with how updating from ESPhome is supposed to work.
It's the friction between how ESPHome handles updates when using dashboard_import
, setting up a good git flow in this project for stables versions, doing development at the same time and making releases. Pherhaps also the different kind of install options with ESPHome 🤷🏻♂️
At some point, this branch split was chosen because otherwise people would already get breaking changes (such as a default pin switch), while this was something for v4.0 and not for the existing v3.x.
OK, I'm going to spend some time understanding more about how ESPHome works with my own test project and see if I can get this figured out... no idea how long it will take
Thx @klaasnicolaas . Just to ensure I got this right and also chose the correct GPIO pin (may help others wondering):
-For those who want to use a stable version now, choose 'main' -> use 3.1.0 -> use pulse_pin: GPIO12
-For those looking to test, choose 'dev' -> use 4.0.0 -> use pulse_pin: GPIO13
Did I get that right?
There hasn't been any activity on this issue recently, so we clean up some of the older and inactive issues. Please make sure to update to the latest version and check if that solves the issue. Let us know if that works for you by leaving a comment 👍 This issue has now been marked as stale and will be closed if no further activity occurs. Thanks!
I ran version 3.x.x for a while, since launch and since upgrading to version 4, that data coming in is all over the place. Any suggestions please?
