Help with setup error

[mfjpeachey]

Hi, thank you for adding this for the community. I am trying to set this up and are receiving the following errors in the log. I believe all credentials etc are correct.

Any advice you could provide?

Hi,

I am not quite sure why you are getting this error. How did you retrieve your credentials? applicationID, installationID and javascriptkey should be quite long random set of letters and number.

Can you uncomment line 257 in pixiepluslogin.py and log Pixie_Plus in debug level? For this you will need to edit pixiepluslogin.py which is located under \config\custom_components\pixie_plus\ in HA and remove the # before line 257 so the code looks like that:

 try:
        json_data = json.dumps(request.json())
        devices = json.loads(json_data)
        # print(devices)
        _LOGGER.debug(devices)
        devices_list = parse_devices(devices, session_data)
        # _LOGGER.info(devices_list)
        return devices_list

You also need to add the following to configuration.yaml

logger:
  default: warn
  logs:
    custom_components.pixie_plus: debug

If logger is already defined in configuration.yaml you will need to add the last line.

Then, remove the Pixie Plus integration by using the UI and re-install it. You should now have more in your logs now which may be useful.

Thanks for the fast reply and suggestion. I am getting the devices returned so believe all the credentials are correct. Here is log below, I have redacted UserIDs etc.

You are right, the credentials must be fine. The first two devices in your list are the pixie plus hubs and I am wonder if there is a bug in the code that doesn't allow correct processing when this is the case (I don't add the hubs into HA). Can you also uncomment the line:

# _LOGGER.info(devices_list)

The code should read:

try:
        json_data = json.dumps(request.json())
        devices = json.loads(json_data)
        # print(devices)
        _LOGGER.debug(devices)
        devices_list = parse_devices(devices, session_data)
        _LOGGER.info(devices_list)
        return devices_list

and send me the log output. There will be more to redact this time because the parsing adds all your credentials to each device.

Another potential issue is that you have a blind controller. Did you add the needed configuration to configuration.yaml as I discuss in the readme?

I'll be at work all day but will try to look at it in the evening.

[mfjpeachey]

What's interesting is the log output is the same. I wonder if that points to an issue in the parse_devices function?

[mfjpeachey]

Also, I did update the configuration.yaml for the blind controller. I had come custom actions defined on the control panel, but I reverted back to the default open, stop, close for debugging.

[mfjpeachey]

@nirnachmani I did some debugging today and I think I have the bug identified.

I believe it has to do with "br": devices["results"][0]["deviceList"][i]["state"]["br"] in the if statement below. The lists returned for the blind controller are different to the plug and have multiple sub lists. Therefore the [i]["state"]["br"] doesn't return a value. I am not an expert so could use your help with the right index if you think this is the issue.

if model_no in is_cover:
            state = None
            _LOGGER.debug("Reached is_cover if statement")
            has_usb = ""

            devices_list.append(
                {
                    "name": device_name,
                    "id": devices["results"][0]["deviceList"][i]["id"],
                    "br": devices["results"][0]["deviceList"][i]["state"]["br"],
                    "br_cur": br_cur,
                    "mac": devices["results"][0]["deviceList"][i]["mac"],
                    "state": state,
                    "type": devices["results"][0]["deviceList"][i]["type"],
                    "stype": devices["results"][0]["deviceList"][i]["stype"],
                    "applicationid": session_data["applicationid"],
                    "installationid": session_data["installationid"],
                    "javascriptkey": session_data["javascriptkey"],
                    "userid": session_data["userid"],
                    "homeid": session_data["homeid"],
                    "livegroup_objectid": session_data["livegroup_objectid"],
                    "sessiontoken": session_data["sessiontoken"],
                    "master_device_name": master_device_name,
                    "side": side,
                    "has_usb": has_usb,
                    "has_usb_update": "",
                }
            )

[mfjpeachey]

Looking at it further, I assume br is brightness and the blind controller does not have this property. Should it be set to "" or "255"?

I updated to "br": "255" and everything worked!

[nirnachmani]

Great! Thanks.

I think I don't use "br" in devices_list at all and it is just left there from earlier code. I initially thought that "br" in "deviceList" represents the brightness but it actually doesn't - the brightness (or state) are actually under "br" under "onlineList". I still don't know what "br" under "deviceList" is for. I retrieve it in light.py but never use it there and don't retrieve it at all in switch.py or cover.py. Example of bad programing! However, despite leaving it there, the blind controller I tested worked so it must have had a ["state"]["br"] while your doesn't have the ["state"] category at all.

I'll remove this line and update the code and if you want you can test it to see if it works.

[nirnachmani]

Ok, I have removed code that uses devices["results"][0]["deviceList"][i]["state"]["br"]. It works fine with my system but I don't have a blind controller in use. Would be great if you could use the new code to see if it works with your system. Cheers.

[mfjpeachey]

Tested and it works!
