OZW Beta - How to get the OZW log file?

Configuration Z-Wave
1

I wanted to use the official openzwave log analyzer, but I can’t find the log file in the hassio OZW plugin container, and the analyzer doesn’t seem to like the docker logs output.

Any tips on how to get the ozw log for this?

Searched for it as well in the OZW container. No luck.

I’ve been trying to track down some zwave issues as well and the closest that I could get to finding OZW_Log.txt is outputting the docker logs like this:

docker logs addon_core_zwave

note that command outputs both stdout and stderr so if you wanted to export all of it to a single file, you need to redirect using &> instead of just >:

docker logs addon_core_zwave &> output.txt

I am using MQTT explorer to monitor ozw messages, all neatly organized by node / command class etc…

I’m not sure of how to use MQTT Explorer to monitor all messages. Probably not too difficult but the question still remains:

How do you create an openzwave log file that is compatible with the official ozw log analyzer? I also tried the docker log and it failed. I’m assuming the ozw docker image should be capable of creating an ozw log file that works with their log analyzer!

How do you use MQTT Explorer with the current OpenZWave add-on, which seems to have a built-in MQTT broker?
