Yep, works as expected.

Ok!
Alrightā€¦ I did a new Lovelace example as wellā€¦ if you wouldnā€™t mind would be great if you can check that is working for me?

43

also maybe see if you can use this: is_state_attr() and state_attr() for the missing entity? Should prevent errors if the entity is missing

44

No go with the lovelace card:

Iā€™m using state_attr() everywhere already. Unfortunately if it returns unknown then that still generates a divide by zero error if the sensor is used in a denominator. e.g.

    pct_used:
      friendly_name: Percent of Plan Used
      entity_id: sensor.abb_usage
      value_template: "{{ ( 100 * state_attr('sensor.abb_usage', 'usedMb') | float / state_attr('sensor.abb_usage', 'allowanceMb') | float ) | round(1) }}"
      unit_of_measurement: '%'
45

Doesnā€™t make senseā€¦ that line has not changed at all. Only thing I changed was the last lineā€¦ Copy error?

I saw @dale3h mentioning the state_attr() and if_state_attr() on discord to correct that exact issueā€¦ perhaps look him up on Discord and see wha he said

Could be. I may have messed something up when altering the indentation to add it to a card rather than pasting it in the raw editor. Iā€™ll give it another go.

Will do. Thanks.

Your Lovelace is all good. Something fishy is happening with VSCode column edit. Notepad++ was fine:

OK great. Thanks for confirming Tom.

Hi David, I suspect this is probably a local or ABB issue rather than an issue with your script but I am seeing a lot more of these errors lately:

Logger: homeassistant.components.shell_command
Source: /usr/src/homeassistant/homeassistant/components/shell_command/__init__.py:113
Integration: Shell Command (documentation, issues)
First occurred: 12 November 2020, 20:00:06 (10 occurrences)
Last logged: 07:45:06
Error running command: `/bin/bash /config/abbusage/abbusage_ha.sh`, return code: 6

NoneType: None

Are you seeing the same?

50

What does return code 6 signify with bash?
I bet the cookie has expired and is not refreshing.
Have you tried running the initial config script again?
I am not with ABB anymore - churned to Superloop a year ago.

51

Return code 6 is ā€œNo such device or addressā€.

I think it could be a DNS issue as the sensor is only failing intermittently. Iā€™ll give the set-up script a go though.

Iā€™m actually thinking of changing providers, Superloop or Future Broadband. Do Superloop have an API?

52

No API. No CGNAT. only Unlimited plans now. Let me know as we both get $10 disc for 6 months if you use my referral code.
