Thank you for considering this enhancement.
I tied to add this a custom repository: Repostitory structure for master is not compliant
I thought I had asked this before, but I canāt find the original post. My apologies if Iām starting a new threadā¦
Iāve got four rPi zeros in my house, all running the monitor script. Iām using the AppDaemon app on my rPi-based Home Assistant install.
Every couple of days, the known_static_addresses file on each rPi zero gets emptied of any MAC addresses. The header (showing the file format) is still there, but the data is missing. I posted this a while back, and I seem to be one of two people with this problem. I tried some work-arounds, like setting the known_static_address file as read-only (that didnāt help), changing the owner of the file, and creating a cron job to replace the file with a backup. Apparently, Iām not cron-wise because that didnāt work either.
Iād love to get this working! For the past several months, Iāve had to go in every couple of days and copy the backup file. Is there a setting Iām missing somewhere? (Or can one be added?)
It appears that I needed to reconfigure MQTT on my HA. I logged into one of the PiZero devices, and ran:
sudo monitor.sh -v
Then watched as I issued a mqtt command to add a device:
topic: monitor/setup/ADD STATIC DEVICE
payload: xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx alias
I noticed that the PiZero didnāt seem to catch the MQTT message. So, I clicked on āRe-configure MQTTā on the integration page and submitted the data (no changes). Afterwards, it caught the command.
Hopefully, this will solve my issue.
After reading this thread twice, this was the missing information?
I installed everything through HAC and I just couldnt get it workingā¦
How to point to the āhome_precence_app.yamlā in the apps.yaml?
Donāt get me wrong everything works when you delete the "home_presence_app.yaml and moved the configuration to the apps.yaml (Running Hassio everything installed from the UI on HA server itself)
I also tried to do aā¦
appdaemon:
app_dir: /config/appdaemon/apps/
What is the correct way to do this?
Thanks to @andrewjfreyer and @Odianosen25 for great work. Iām finally getting reliable on/off automation for my home security cams.
@Odianosen25: Is it possible to define which known devices belong to group controlling binary sensors everyone_home, everyone_not_home and somebody_is_home? I would like to have binary sensors for some devices which usually stay at home but sometimes may leave home, but I would like NOT to include those to the group controlling overall family presence. I can create separate group in Home Assistant for family presence, but then I lose the benefit of running only ARRIVE or DEPART scan when whole family is at home or not at home.
I was runnig home presence app for a month now, and I just noticed that my RPI0 is not restarted when offline. I can see message in log:
WARNING home_presence_app: Node at Rpi0W Delavnica is Offline, will need to be checked
And I have set up to restart if offline:
remote_monitors:
disable: False
delavnica:
auto_reboot_when_offline: True
host: !secret delavnica_monitor_host
username: !secret delavnica_monitor_username
password: !secret delavnica_monitor_password
reboot_command: sudo /sbin/reboot now
What am I missing?
Requirement.txt it is in the
/config/appdaemon/apps/Monitor-App/requirements.txt
there is only one line with paramiko word inside
Anyone any idea?
Thanks in advance
HI. Iām using the add on since about a month, and notice that it overload my CPU constantly.
Iām running on an Intel NUC.
Is anyone experience the same issue.
Anyway itās working like a charm but I would reduce my cpu load. If you have some advice.

Not overly directed at the app itself but does this solution provide the ability to provide a room presence?
Say user X walks into the lounge itāll detect them quick enough that say streaming music could follow them around? or appropriate lighting be set?
Iām not really after who or is someone in the house because this can easily be done in my scenario with Wi-Fi presence etc but more who is where in the house.
Hi,
Iām sorry as Iām sure this has been asked already but what would be the optimal arguments for a single node that is placed at the front door and a contact sensor
at the front door being the only gateway sensor. We only ever leave/enter through the front door.
Thanks
Are people still using this or is there a better solution that people use? I noticed there havenāt been many updates
