elupus · January 3, 2019, 11:08am

I dont understand.

tunnis · January 3, 2019, 11:18am

elupus · January 3, 2019, 11:42am

Just updated to latest from 80.3 and changed the config. Do i need to do everything from scratch?
this is hassio want to check it out before i do it on my hassbian

I think it’s the entity registry that is breaking things. Its renaming the entity IDs . If you have not customized any entity names at all you can remove “.storage/core.entity_registry” if you have you need to just remove all nibe entities from that file.

I followed the instructions in the readme to the letter. But I am getting the following error. Can’t figure out how to fix it. Any help / guidance / tips would be greatly appreciated.

I am using HASSIO 0.85.0 on RPi 3

Must be some error earlier. It has not installed a dependency.

Vennerberg · January 18, 2019, 10:28pm

Can this component be used with Hass.io?

elupus · January 18, 2019, 10:46pm

Never tested it. But it should work. I know there was some python version problem at some point. But it was possible to resolve.

nickcj · January 19, 2019, 1:29pm

Yep I’m using it in Hass.io

Its not very obvious in the instructions and unless you read the conversations above you may miss the way it needs to be configured.

So just clone the elupus/hass_nibe repo to your custom_components folder. This alone won’t make the component work. Open the hass_nibe directory and you will notice that all of the directory structures look the same as the custom_components folder (if you have some already).

You need to move those directories out of the hass_nibe and into custom_components.

NOTE: if you are already using some custom components then make sure you don’t overwrite them with these instead you need to basically merge them. For example I had Hue custom component installed within the sensor directory, and hass_nibe also had a sensor directory so you just need to copy those contents into the existing sensor directory. Image attached of how mine looks to help.

Then just follow the rest of the instructions https://github.com/elupus/hass_nibe and obtain your NIBE Uplink keys.

I’ve only just had our NIBE F2040-16 with SMO20 uplink installed this week and it works great! The only things I’ve not tested is the remote turn on turn off features because I have not paid 25 Euro for the management charge to Nibe premium service, but I will do later on.

One thing I will say is do not pay for the Premium History service since you can do this from your Home Assistant Influx DB and Grafana based on the sensors you collect

Hope this helps!

This is how it should be done for all installs. Not just hassio. This will become easier soon, when all can be contained inside one folder of your custom components folder.

elupus · January 19, 2019, 1:47pm

Ie the cloned folder IS your custom_components folder.

Hi guys, I get the same error as rawash when trying to get lastest hass_nibe to work in hassio 0.85.1 on RPI 3:

2019-01-19 12:49:53 ERROR (MainThread) [homeassistant.setup] Error during setup of component nibe Traceback (most recent call last): File “/usr/local/lib/python3.6/site-packages/homeassistant/setup.py”, line 145, in _async_setup_component hass, processed_config) File “/config/custom_components/nibe/init.py”, line 122, in async_setup from nibeuplink import Uplink ModuleNotFoundError: No module named ‘nibeuplink’

It seems the dependent library nibeuplink is missing. I guess this is supposed to be installed automatically but fails in hassio for some reason. How did you solve this nickcj?

nord · January 20, 2019, 12:50pm

@imist You need to install the component yourself. Follow the instructions here:

elupus · January 20, 2019, 1:08pm

nibeuplink should install itself automatically as long as you have internet access. Unless hassio does something differently.

Vennerberg · January 20, 2019, 8:41pm

And this is why I use Hassbian…
