Hi All,
I was postponing the update of Home Assistant core for some time until i couldnt anymore due to a problem a came across when did it. I am currently running the latest (2023.10.4).
I have a File in .json inside /config/File_Sensors folder. After the aforementioned action of updating the values stored there and dynamically being changed (i checked that the file is being updating) the sensors are not changing the values unless Home Assistant is restarted. It seems like there is no “real time” reading of the file anymore.
What is going wrong? Has anyone else faced the same issue?
Some info for assistance:
allowlist_external_dirs:
- "/config/File_Sensors"
and part of the configuration.yaml when i “read” the data"
sensor:
- platform: file
file_path: /config/File_Sensors/PiServer_data.json
name: "Nord"
value_template: '{{ value_json.Nord }}'
- platform: file
file_path: /config/File_Sensors/PiServer_data.json
name: "NordCE"
value_template: '{{ value_json.NordCE }}'
And in Developer panel it doesnt read the changes:
Thank you in advance because this thing broke half my smart features,
Jim
