Any guess what happened?
My guess - You upgraded to the latest version of Node-red and didn’t see the breaking changes listed for those nodes?
edit: added release notes link
Releases · hassio-addons/addon-node-red · GitHub (Check out 12.0.2 - latest as of this post)
I had auto-update turned on because Node Red had always been so dependable. No more.
I restored from last night’s snapshot and turned off auto-update, so my nodes are working again.
The stoptimer node is used in some flows that I have monitoring a medical device, so I am screwed until I can figure out a workaround.
The other missing nodes aren’t even mentioned in the Breaking Changes.
Just reinstall the nodes.
Better yet, use stoptimer-varidelay.
Why this advise? It works very reliable…
It has some extra features that are very handy.
- Text output of time remaining/status under the node or out via separate payload to display timers in HA
- ability to disable _timerpass, which can come in handy when using multiple or looped timers
- resume timers from where they should be after restarting NR
- set timers via .msg inputs, allows extra flexibility. eg, use the same automation, but change the light timeout based on time of day without multiple nodes
