@frenck I have also problems with docker hub at the moment. I get an authenticated error, which is probably the same error you have in the CI. Maybe there is a problem at docker hub.
From what I’m gathering, mqtt sensor, which could be used to pull in a “number” via MQTT, will pull in a string representation of that number. MQTT Number would bring in the number as an actual number, so the object type in Home Assistant would be a number rather than a string.
I’m eager to try the new Z-Wave JS integration. The update says polling is currently not supported and I have quite a few GE Z-wave dimmers that require ‘polling_intensity: 0’ to be set in zwave_device_config.yaml.
Is it safe to assume the GE Dimmers won’t work correctly with this new integration? If so, is there any word when polling may be supported?
Yes, they will turn on/off from the Z-wave commands but HomeAssistant won’t recognize them as being turned off, leaving them in a perpetual on state. I should have been more clear. Without polling enabled, when I turn the GE dimmers off in HomeAssistant, they dim down to single digit brightness in HA but don’t ever go into an off state.
That bug doesn’t make these dimmers very useful in a home automation solution when the on/off state can’t be recognized.
Yes, I know, i have 10 of these devices. If you read my response, you’ll understand that I gave you the answer.
You mean design? These devices were built when lutron patent existed for zwave immediate responses. The polling will come, it’s just not available now.
Great work. Thanks for the updates. Really looking forward to zwave improvements - wilk get to it likely next version once it becomes more mature, since my home heavily relies on z-wave.
