Created new add-on to backup snapshots to Google Drive

monaco · January 31, 2019, 10:56pm

After ignesting code I get only

Server Error (500)

I use duckdns plugin for ssl

I was getting a similar error. I have an ASUS router and I had to forward port 8055 to 8055 to the IP address of my HASSIO device. After doing that it works for me.

Hope this helps

Tried the same, no success

I’m getting the following error when trying to execute it in browser

{"errorMessage": "<HttpError 404 when requesting https://www.googleapis.com/drive/v3/files?q=name%3D%27bda8c705.tar%27+and+%27Some_Google_Drive_Unique_Opaque_Folder_ID%27+in+parents+and+trashed+%3D+false&spaces=drive&fields=files%28id%2C+name%29&alt=json returned \"File not found: .\">"}

Is that File not found referring to missing backup file? I could not verify whether the snapshots are actually ending to such a folder on Pi (newbie with Raspberry … still trying to get understanding where such a folder should be)

It looks like you didn’t set the backupDirID in your configuration per these instructions.

CarlE · February 4, 2019, 8:52pm

Did you find any solution? I’m getting the same error

teachingbirds · February 6, 2019, 10:23am

Works perfect!
It would be great if another endpoint saved the latest response from the backup get request, so that we could make rest sensors to quickly see things like backupTimestamp, backedUpCount and the other interesting stuff in the response!

sunam · February 6, 2019, 6:14pm

In the end I did not find any typos in the backupDirID nor elsewhere. Ended up redoing all the steps again from the beginning (not reinstalling the addon) and then it started to work. Cannot even guess whether human error or some delay in the authorization etc. was the issue

samccauley · February 6, 2019, 6:38pm

Ahh! Based on what you just said, and based on the content of error that you shared earlier (I remember seeing my dummy value for the backupDirID in that error message), I’m guessing that your original edits to the configuration were not picked up by my add-on. It’s likely that restarting the add-on caused it to finally pick up your edits. Sort of a guess. And that shouldn’t happen. But I’m glad it’s working for you now.

@samccauley thanks and respect for the addon! worked perfect for me. imho it should be part of the official repo.

Hi @samccauley

I’m getting this error when is launched by automation:

It has happened three consecutive nights. The next day I launch the automation manually and everything works correctly. Do you have any idea what may be happening?

Thanks

samccauley · February 15, 2019, 12:58pm

It sounds like a problem with how your automation is setup. Here’s my setup…

I have my automation setup like this:
- id: '1541263656718'
  alias: Run Google Backup
  trigger:
  - at: 02:00:00
    platform: time
  condition:
  - condition: time
    weekday:
    - mon
    - wed
    - fri
  action:
  - service: rest_command.google_backup

The automation uses a REST command that I setup like this:
rest_command:
  google_backup:
    url: 'http://localhost:8055/gb/doBackup'
    timeout: '300'

The timeout value is important. It doesn’t work with shorter/default timeout.

sermayoral · February 15, 2019, 8:54pm

I have a timeout of 300 set, but as an Integer, not String.

Maybe that’s the problem. Here is my automation:

- id: '1550049006025'
  alias: Backups en Google Drive
  trigger:
  - at: 06:30:00
    platform: time
  condition: []
  action:
  - service: rest_command.google_backup

In the configuration.yaml I have this:

rest_command:
  google_backup:
    url: !secret url_google_backup (myDomain.duckdns.org)
    timeout: 300

vodanium · February 16, 2019, 11:30pm

Hi,
According to the manual, the doBackup service would send a JSON response. How can I get this data?
I would like to send a notification with the content of it.

vMeph · February 17, 2019, 5:06pm

it has stop working and for some reason im getting this in logs

Segmentation fault (core dumped)

what that means

vMeph · February 17, 2019, 7:38pm

im using 0.88.0b2 version so im wondering if there was any changes cause this addon use to work in other versions

samccauley · February 17, 2019, 8:11pm

The JSON is returned in the HTTP response. If you use a tool like Postman, for example, you’ll see the response. I don’t know that Home Assistant does with the response, though.

samccauley · February 18, 2019, 9:54pm

Update to version 1.5.0. I’m now publishing an MQTT event with the JSON in it.

samccauley · February 18, 2019, 9:55pm

Try version 1.5.0. I’m not publishing an MQTT event with the JSON response in it.

teachingbirds · February 19, 2019, 9:06am

Wonderful!
