2024.2: More voice, more icons, more integrations, more... everything!

G8YTZ · February 8, 2024, 8:11am

I have tried updating from 2024.1.6 to 2024.2.0 and it fails each time. I use the UK Met Office, I tried disabling this, but still the update fails.

All these updates are quite tedious, what we need is a long-term suported version that just works with new released properly tested before release.

jonas18z1 · February 8, 2024, 8:14am

This ZHA ziggbe automatic update seems like a future I’m searched for long time but I have a few question

You could already edit the configuration yaml to add auto update is this the same? Or what about this futures

Where will the zha download firmware from?

G8YTZ · February 8, 2024, 8:15am

Same issue here updating from 2024.1.6

GSzabados · February 8, 2024, 8:16am

It took me less than 15 minutes to update, including a backup of the previous version. You should look at your logs to see what is going wrong.

andrewjswan · February 8, 2024, 8:20am

But what is the point of removing a working sensor that is in use and carries zero load in the system, especially for those who do not use it? To add load to the templates?

GSzabados · February 8, 2024, 8:20am

Another Tapo custom component what you need for that!

TheFes · February 8, 2024, 8:22am

I don’t know, I was not involved in the decision making here.
I just wanted to provide an alternative for after it is removed.

wigster · February 8, 2024, 8:23am

You could have a look at the HACS integration Places — it does lookups based on gps cords and returns very precise address data from OpenStreetMap. You could then filter by postal code, building names or whatever to define zones.

andrewjswan · February 8, 2024, 8:24am

I understand, but this is a very strange solution, if there were problems with this sensor, it would depend on other libraries that are outdated, but here is banal mathematics that only works for those who have it in the configuration.

Mariusthvdb · February 8, 2024, 8:29am

guess you can read the discussion on that in the PR Deprecate legacy Proximity entity by mib1185 · Pull Request #108730 · home-assistant/core · GitHub

what I did, and it works perfectly, is create a new template for the former proximity entities (I also liked to have those grouped attributes on a Zone centered entity)

template:

  - sensor:

      - unique_id: proximity_sensor_thuis
#         name: Proximity Thuis
        state: >
          {{states('sensor.thuis_nearest_distance')}}
        picture: /local/family/family_thuis.jpg
        device_class: distance
        unit_of_measurement: km
        attributes:
          direction: >
            {{states('sensor.thuis_nearest_direction_of_travel')}}
          nearest: >
            {{states('sensor.thuis_nearest_device')}}

I only need these 3 sensors per zone, and not all of the individual sensors for each tracker on that zone, so disable those.

G8YTZ · February 8, 2024, 8:32am

There is noting in the log that relates to the update. Previously I saw script errors, so it does look like a faulty update script.

Top right corner, dropdown, Supervisor. Select that and see if any obvious in that log.

typxxi · February 8, 2024, 8:37am

Overall much faster - at least right now it feels a lot faster and more responsive
Mel Cloud is working again - I hope my Mel App will also work too.

Great progress after
I had first figured out how to reconfigure the tuya authentification

Thanks

andrewjswan · February 8, 2024, 8:38am

This is understandable, but it is not clear why this was done. Those. we remove one entity, add at least 5, then hide the unnecessary ones and create a template.
Why do we increase entropy?

Mariusthvdb · February 8, 2024, 8:41am

yah, I hear you.
but, this was a move from yaml to UI, and those integrations have to conform to the Architecture decisions, and one of those is to create individual entities for former attributes.

It is considered to be better for DB, and better for users (simpler).

andrewjswan · February 8, 2024, 8:45am

For Deprecate ‘beat’ display option in Time & Date i open discussion: Deprecate `beat` display option in Time & Date · home-assistant/architecture · Discussion #1037 · GitHub

andrewjswan · February 8, 2024, 8:48am

I understand that this is a transition to the GUI, I also understand that this is an attempt to get rid of attributes, but in this case this attempt is not successful, we are changing one entity with 3 more or less static attributes to 5 entities that still have attributes. As a result, this is a large load on the database, there is no ease of use and there are no normal settings in the GUI (not creating separate entities for devices, for example).

GSzabados · February 8, 2024, 8:51am

You should check homeassistant/home-assistant.log.1 through File Editor, if you have that addon.

That should be the log for the crashed 2024.2. (The log from the previous start.)

Mariusthvdb · February 8, 2024, 8:51am

in my case, I dont have them recorded at all, so no DB issues.

but, if you wanted, you could now only record one of those new entities, where before you had to record the complete proximity entity…

tbh, I do believe this UI is much ‘easier’ than the yaml config before.

define ‘normal’ settings…
