I am currently facing the same problem as saxn-paule is having.
I receive the following error message, since I switched my router to an opnsense machine.
Failed to get public information from SHC controller: HTTPSConnectionPool(host='169.254.239.9', port=8446): Max retries exceeded with url: /smarthome/public/information (Caused by ConnectTimeoutError(<urllib3.connection.HTTPSConnection object at 0x7f74eb685a90>, 'Connection to 169.254.239.9 timed out. (connect timeout=30)'))
So I guess it must have something to do with the BOSCH SHC not being able to receive an ipv4 adress from opnsense? But I am able to control the Bosch SHC with the Bosch App on my phone.
Maybe homeassistant is trying to reach a service outside of my network and its getting blocked?
Does anyone have a clue?
EDIT: I don’t know how and why but the reinstallation of the Bosch SHC Integration solved the problem. Technology…
Hi
can you share some information where the official integration currently is in comparison to the custom component, especially regarding supported devices?
No pressure from my side of course, I’m happy with the custom component as it is, runs stable, I update manually once in a while. I never migrated to the HACS, don’t want to take the risk to have entities renamed.
Just asking if it’s already time to plan for a migration,
Just leaving a big thanks for your work here. I was desparately searching for a possibility to control/combine my Homematic IP (CCU3) with the Bosch system. Looking forward for further development.
Well, it should create climate entities. Which version of the component are you running, the custom component or the default? Default does not yet support the climate platform.
Just for my understanding:
I can install the official HASS integration and the version from the HACS respository at the same time? Or do I even have to, because the HACS version is built on top of the integration?
If I install the official version, then the light on my eyes camera is not recognized, if I install the HACS version additionally, then I can control it.
this is straight forward: In the devices list (settings → devices) select the WRC2 device, press the + button in the automation area. You should get a list of events, e.g. “upper button long press”. Select the desired event and create the automation.
yesterday i switched to the HACS integration of Bosch Smart Home Controller (SHC). Unfortunately I’m not able to get the integration up and running; but I’m also new “on HACS”
So what I did:
getting HACS installed
SHC installed truth HACS (incl. the LOG that you mentioned @tschamm
2021-12-28 09:04:01 WARNING (SyncWorker_1) [homeassistant.loader] We found a custom integration bosch_shc which has not been tested by Home Assistant. This component might cause stability problems, be sure to disable it if you experience issues with Home Assistant
Try to add the integration with Configuration - Integrations - Add Integration - each for Bosch SHC
but i get an
Error
Config flow could not be loaded
Any hints what I need to do to get this integration running with HACS?
And maybe somebody can tell me also how I can activate the auto discovery? That works also not
I just re-install everything (HACS and all integrations) - still the same issue
I have on my RP4: ~/docker/homeassistant/custom_components/bosch_shc and also the config_flow.py is in this directory.
For the installation of HACS I used this: https://hacs.xyz/docs/setup/download (Option 2: Run the downloader inside the container) so I hope no mistake with the HACS installation.
