2022.5: Streamlining settings

Gosh where did you find that? Do you have a thread or issue where this is discussed?

An older thread that started for a different reason, that I may have incorrectly chimed in on with my issue, but Mike was still abe to help me in the end.

Yea its a supervisor change not core hence not in here. Change and reason explained here:

Essentially supervisor was forwarding multicast queries to the listed resolvers. This is bad practice as it risks leaking internal names to external resolvers and multicast queries are supposed to be completely handled in the ways specified by their specs which doesn’t involve DNS resolvers. We’re doing the right thing now but it does mean if you relied on a dns rewrite for a .local name in Adguard for instance that’s not going to work anymore.

Yes. Many improvements that I am looking forward to learn.

However:

The Restart button is available in the System menu.

Where? All I see is a host reboot and shutdown.

In the far upper right in Systems

Thanks @jjlawren for your speedy reply. That’s how I use it and wanted to double check before I upgrade

OK.

Out of habit from being bitten in the yaml so many times, (As recently as earlier this week). I always clicked on “Check Configuration” before any restart. Some things still have to be done in YAML. (I would have liked to see the Check Configuration performed automatically with any restart).

So, do I have to run the Check Configuration in Developer Tools now? Bummer.

This already happens, has for an age (been mentioned above in this thread already).

Also the restart button is in there on same page as Check Configuration too if you do want to Check manually before restarting.

And a few YAML-challenged old users.

I think it was only added functionality to triggers

Thanks for the updates as always. Unfortunately 2022.5 seems to have broken SNMP sensors however.

The LIRC Infrared Blaster/Receiver integration does not load with this version, (nor the last version, at least).

The integration’s manifest does not show a code owner. Does someone review issues with “non-currently-owned” integrations when the bot doesn’t prompt someone? LIRC Integration Fails to Load after Failing to Self-Install its Dependencies · Issue #71177 · home-assistant/core · GitHub).

Where has the ‘Import from USB’ option on the old ‘Supervisor’ page gone? As referenced here: Debugging the Home Assistant Operating System | Home Assistant Developer Docs

SNMP working great for me on 7 different devices. You sure you can reach the endpoints?

Maybe its just me, but I like being able to browse my yaml, see 50+ lines of code on the screen, scroll through multiple entities and their code, copy code and insight as needed, and to see the whole context of my code including comments and the preserved order in which I customarily write the code.

The UI doesn’t do that. That said, I really like the developer > services UI<>YAML toggle. Give me that in the larger UI, and I might just use the UI for a bit more. BTW, “packages” are a great way to bundle your thoughts and objectives.

I have automations that are more than a full screen high in my vim editor display. Looking at them in the UI, I can’t tell what the heck they do.

Yes I can reach the endpoints. Other users are reporting roll-back to 2022.4.x fixes the issue immediately. See the issue.

Yup, I made a mistake when I cut that out of my script and hardcoded the entity in the dev template tool :frowning:. But I’ve gotten into states where my scripts stopped working and couldn’t find the entities. This is commonly after hammering a ton in the dev template tool (typically fixed by a reboot). I did just reboot now and the scripts are working.

This weekend I’ll spend more time on new similar scripts and see if I can replicate and capture more error info. I’ve only been on HA for a few months, other than the default log, any places to look to capture more error data?

Yup. Good call out (and I responded to the other individual too) … I made a mistake when I cut that out of my script and hardcoded the entity in the dev template tool :frowning:. I did just reboot and my scripts are fine. But I am seeing the weird state issue where it won’t retrieve the entities from the sonos speakers after continually hammering the dev template tool (I used it a lot to figure out how to code out the jinja). I’ll do more this weekend and try to capture more error info. Other than error logs, any other place I can look for failure information?

version 2022.5.1 is available, however it wont install click on the install button showing nothing. Anyone having the same problem?

Mine updated fine, but I used ca core update instead of the gui.
