Husqvarna Automower monitoring

[Thomas_Gregg]

Are there any plans to make this part of the official home assistant package? I think that would be extremely helpful for many users.

[Thomas_Gregg]

I tried the install as a custom component with the offered zip file and I get the following error:

2018-07-22 21:56:45 ERROR (MainThread) [homeassistant.setup] Error during setup of component automower
Traceback (most recent call last):
File “/usr/local/lib/python3.6/site-packages/homeassistant/setup.py”, line 146, in _async_setup_component

File “/config/custom_components/automower.py”, line 96, in setup

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named ‘pyhusmow’

As far as I understood it is not necessary to install pyhusmow when using this version (zip file content), correct? Can anybody help me with this, please? I am running on Hassio 1.7

Magically works after another reboot

@jansh, how can I help? I would love to see this integrated natively. I can do dev work, what is needed? I’ve been using the custom component and it seems to work well from what I can tell.

[jansh (Jan)]

Thanks! I’m glad that so many people are successfully using my component.

I think step 1 would be deciding on a strategy for the entity. @balloob said he’d favour a new component which would also be the easiest to implement because we wouldn’t mess with existing vacuum cleaners relying on the vacuum entity.

Then, step 2 would be actually introducing the new lawnmower entity in a fork.

Step 3 would be refactoring my custom component to use lawnmower instead of vacuum.

Step 4 would be figuring out if we need a test suite.

Step 5 would be preparing a pull request against HA and getting a code review from the core team.

Any contributions are welcome! Either as PR to my repo or directly to HA.

I have the Gardena Sileno Smart City 500 lawnmower. Gardena is owned by Husqvarna and supposedly use the same infrastructure. Is it possible to add Gardena support to this solution?

[billchurch]

It’s really all about Husqvarna’s API. This communicates to Husqvarna servers to relay commands, so if it works like that then it probably already just works…

Otherwise, it would need to be it’s own module.

Hi again!

It’s great to see that efforts are being made to make this into it’s own module.

Now, have anyone used this custom component for any automations, yet?

I just got a rain gauge and would like to send my mower to it’s little house when it rains. But I can’t figure out the different states.
When reading through this thread I get start/stop/park, but when I check active states in HA I get on/off/park as the ones actually being used.
But if I use “on” in an automation, my automations will not load unless I use “start”.
Due to lack of rain I havn’t been able to test it yet.

Does anyone have insight in how to call for it to park until further notice and then call again to activate the timer?

[wijnandtop]

I’ve created a custom component for the Garena Smart devices which is discussed in this topic:

Gardena smart system + Home assistant?

I’m working on a proper home assistant component for the gardena smart ecosystem. My goal is to make it a default home-assistant component but time is limited so I like to share my progress with you. Currently I have all the code in a custom_component (which later should become a pypi library), it currently only supports the lawn mower, and registers it as a vacum cleaner. Project: https://github.com/wijnandtop/home_assistant_gardena Setup should be very easy and feedback is welcome …

@jansh
Just checking the sha256sum of your file and it’s different to the one linked above ^^.

Any cause for concern or has it changed or do I have the wrong command?
Cheers R.

Hi,

Since ugrade to 0.88 the Automower integration is not working properly anymore.

[teachingbirds (Isabella Gross Alström)]

Make a new folder in custom_components called automower. in that folder you put all the three files, but rename the one that was in the sensors-folder to sensor.py, the one in device_tracker-folder to device_tracker.py. Then it should work. You might have to rename automower.py to __init__.py

[skracke (Erik Trapp)]

I have tried moving/renaming as follows:
automower.py -> custom_components/automower/automower.py device_tracker/automower.py -> custom_components/automower/device_tracker.py vacuum/automower.py -> custom_components/automower/vacuum.py

I have also tried:
automower.py -> custom_components/automower/__init__.py

But I only get these error messages:

Hi,

I have the same issue.

[teachingbirds (Isabella Gross Alström)]

Ah. You also need to change this import “homeassistant.components.automower import DOMAIN as AUTOMOWER_DOMAIN”
to custom_components.automower import DOMAIN as AUTOMOWER_DOMAIN I think, I can’t look at the files right now. In both device tracker and vacuum file.

[skracke (Erik Trapp)]

Now it works again! Thank you!

This is what I did just to clarify:
Moved/renamed:
automower.py -> custom_components/automower/__init__.py device_tracker/automower.py -> custom_components/automower/device_tracker.py vacuum/automower.py -> custom_components/automower/vacuum.py

And changed the files device_tracker.py and vacuum.py like you described above

from:
from homeassistant.components.automower import DOMAIN as AUTOMOWER_DOMAIN
to:
from custom_components.automower import DOMAIN as AUTOMOWER_DOMAIN

[astrandb (Åke S)]

@jansh My 430X is reporting the status OFF_DISABLED when powered off and stored in my garage. I suggest that these two lines are entered at appropriate positions in automower/init.py.
STATUS_OFF_DISABLED = ‘OFF_DISABLED’
STATUS_OFF_DISABLED: {‘icon’: ‘mdi:close-circle-outline’, ‘message’: ‘Off’}

[HypnoToad]

Hi I’d like to try this component, I’ve downloaded the files from here:

yeah/home-assistant

Once I’ve added the files to my custom components folder, how do I set up the options in my config files? Are there any docs or do I just need to put in a username and password?

[Razor109]

Followed your advice but get the following error, cant figure out why.

[teachingbirds (Isabella Gross Alström)]

Based on those I’d say it can’t find the component in the custom components folder. You sure it’s in the right place and folder structure?
