It’s likely a bug in node-red-contrib-home-assistant. If you can’t do any of the workarounds I suggested, you may want to open an issue at https://github.com/AYapejian/node-red-contrib-home-assistant.

thx I will do

Any idea why Node-RED is sending it’s info to the wrong ip?

Correct ip;

967aced0ee70f Subwoofer GET /upnp/amazon-ha-bridge/setup.xml ::ffff:192.168.1.23
Sending setup.xml to ::ffff:192.168.1.23

Incorrect ip;

967aced0ee70f Subwoofer GET /upnp/amazon-ha-bridge/setup.xml ::ffff:192.168.1.51
Sending setup.xml to ::ffff:192.168.1.51

I’ve looked through the settings and can’t figure it out, tia.

Hi,

I configured Ngnix today. And now its working with http://localhost:8123

But it usually should work with http://hassio/homeassistant

Anyway. I think the solution with the proxy is a lot better, because auf local http.

Thank for all the help!

NotoriousBDG · December 23, 2017, 3:45pm

I’ve dug into the issue with using http://hassio/homeassistant in node-red-contrib-home-assistant a little bit more. It appears to be an issue with the API proxy in hassio.

If I execute curl -X GET -H "Content-Type: application/json" http://localhost:8123/api/stream within the Node-RED container, I get the event stream. If I execute curl -X GET -H "Content-Type: application/json" http://hassio/homeassistant/api/stream inside the Node-RED addon, it hangs.

I’ve opened the an issue at https://github.com/home-assistant/hassio/issues/284.

NotoriousBDG · December 26, 2017, 8:25pm

The hassio API proxy now supports proxying the event stream. Make sure your supervisor has automatically updated to 0.78 or newer. After that, you should be able to use http://hassio/homeassistant as your Base URL in Node-RED.

I have Node Red up and running and built a number of basic flows. I am having an issue with it starting/staying running on Hass restart/start events.

On a fresh reboot, I have to manually start NodeRed. I have auto start on boot enabled.
If I restart Hass, NodeRed will crash and I have restart it.

Anyone else have this issue?

Here is the error from restarting Hass via the Hassio control panel. The crash happened right after Hass started up. Node Red stayed running up to that point.

It doesn’t look like you’re alone. Check out https://github.com/AYapejian/node-red-contrib-home-assistant/issues/5.

gregg098 · December 29, 2017, 4:46am

Thank you.

Made another post detailing how to generate dynamic service calls with the Home Assistant nodes, with an example that uses a loop.

rogersmj · January 19, 2018, 3:58pm

When I go to install the Node-Red add-on in Hass.io, the Install button just flashes red and the add-on won’t install. I’ve never had this issue with other add-ons before (I have installed many). I don’t see anything in home-assistant.log correlated to this failure. Any ideas what I can do to get it to work? Very interested to experiment with Node-Red.

NotoriousBDG · January 19, 2018, 4:21pm

Check for errors at http://hassio.local:8123/hassio/supervisor.

rogersmj · January 19, 2018, 4:26pm

Ah, thank you.

Here’s the error:

Upgrading Docker to 17.05 or newer should fix that.

rogersmj · January 19, 2018, 6:54pm

Thanks. I was still on resinos 1.0. Upgrading to 1.1 in the advanced hass.io settings resolved the issue.

Dan_Edwards · January 20, 2018, 8:55pm

Thanks to you both for mentioning/addressing this issue. I was having the same issue. I had no idea you could update the OS on Hass.io. Node Red installed fine after I updated it.

oakbrad · January 31, 2018, 7:37pm

Lots of new features in the latest Node-Red - github versioning with Projects! And some updates to the default nodes

NotoriousBDG · January 31, 2018, 9:14pm

Awesome! All you have to do to upgrade the addon is to navigate to http://hassio.local/hassio/addon/27e642c6_nodered then click on Rebuild. After several minutes, you should have Node-RED 0.18.

gregg098 · January 31, 2018, 10:03pm

I just did a STOP, then REBUILD, then START and I still have .17.5. Is there anything else I need to do?

EDIT: Nevermind. I just had to close out the browser window and reload it. A refresh must have pulled the version from the cache. Am on 0.18.0 now.

Chopsting · February 4, 2018, 1:20pm

I installed a node-red module that and dragged one of those onto the flow.

Now my Node-Red crashes on launch instantly, how do I manage to remove that Node-Red Module on Hassio?
I’ve tried rebuilding, uninstalling and reinstalling but it’s still saved somewhere…

Not to certain how to fix this but would be great if someone has any ideas?
