Failed to initialate Brel module

[basssment]

Hi Superjunky,

I installed your plugin and followed the instructions. After i enable the plugin 1 screen appears in my devices, I have 4 installed. but that one does not respond.

After starting the plugin in debug in my logging i see the following: 2021-07-14 11:58:50.369 Status: (Brel) Stop directive received. 2021-07-14 11:58:50.369 Status: (Brel) Exiting work loop. 2021-07-14 11:58:50.569 Status: (Brel) Stopping threads. 2021-07-14 11:58:50.569 Status: (Brel) Stopped. 2021-07-14 11:58:50.570 Status: (Brel) Started. 2021-07-14 11:58:50.615 Status: (Brel) Initialized version 1.0.0, author 'Superjunky' 2021-07-14 11:58:50.616 Status: (Brel) Entering work loop. 2021-07-14 11:58:50.630 Status: (Brel) AccessToken ########blurred########## generated. 2021-07-14 11:58:50.698 Error: (Brel) Failed to initialize Brel module.

What could be wrong? i'm running om linux Debian 4.19.171-2

If you turn on debugging it wil give more info.

Currently only 1 brel-device-type is added to the plugin. In the docs, file WLAN Integration Guide, page 9, you’ll find an overview of the different types. You can create a PR if you wish ;)

Thank you for the quick reply. I'm not shure if i understand... There is only one device type supported in the plugin? (if so wich one, cant find that) So possibly my device mr45-20 (screens outside) is not supported so i can do a request?

[superjunky]

Only device-type 14 is supported. If you want to support more, you wil have to add them to the code of this plugin.

I am not updating this plugin, but everyone is welcome to expand it :)

Ok thanx, not much of a scripter here :S looked ad plugin.py an found the following on rule 160:

        elif Devices[Unit].SwitchType == 13 or Devices[Unit].SwitchType == 7:
            # Blinds 0=Open 1=Dicht 2=%
            if Devices[Unit].DeviceID[-2:] == ':P':
                position = brel_device['data']['currentPosition']
                if Devices[Unit].sValue != str(position):

                    if int(position) < 1:
                        nValue = 0
                    elif int(position) > 99:
                        nValue = 1
                    else:
                        nValue = 2

                    Devices[Unit].Update(
                        nValue=nValue,
                        sValue=str(position),
                        SignalLevel=RSSItoLevel(brel_device['data']['RSSI'])
                    )
                    deviceUpdated = True

If I edit the 13 (you said 14 but think this is the right rule) to 1 (roller blinds, verduidterende screens in dutch) the devices should be seen found? or am I seeing to easy...

[superjunky]

Experiment as you wish, it's the best and most fun way to learn new skills ;) Those Types you mention, are Domoticz switch types (not Brel), so it will not work.

I did a quick review on the code; It will only work for brel-devices where data for "currentAngle" is present. Yours only have "currentPosition" set. The whole code needs to be reworked/reviewed for that. I'm sorry I can't be of any further assistance to you. Perhaps someone comes by in the future who is in the mood to extend the plugin.

Cheers!

Ok thank you for the quick answers, i'm going for a search if someone can figure this out with me. If so, wil share here for others :)
