Testers Needed - Harmony Hub Support Implemented in Python

Bahnburner · October 10, 2016, 4:41am

Yup. That did it.

iandday · October 10, 2016, 10:59am

great! I just want to make sure that the text file containing your hub’s configuration includes the activity ID numbers along with the name.

@datamonkey
you can install pyharmony using pip, but HASS should take care of it for you once you start it up after enabling it in your config file. you need to copy the ‘remote’ directory from my fork and the three files inside to a directory named ‘custom_components’ in your HASS configuration directory. After you have the files copied you can modify your configuration file following my example.

datamonkey · October 10, 2016, 11:25am

thanks @iandday
I have no experience in python but have been coding in other languages before. Not a complete newbie.
I copied the files from your git to the remote directory (wget RawURL).
I am running HASS 0.30.1 on a plain All in One installation.
A config_check gives these errors, I must have missed something …

Are there any dependencies needed?
Any pointers would be welcome …

Bahnburner · October 10, 2016, 2:15pm

It does. I was apparently referencing the older harmonyConf instead of the new harmony_conf

trp · October 10, 2016, 3:21pm

I tried to install this, get similar issue to @datamonkey - log for ref:

Bahnburner · October 10, 2016, 7:41pm

I placed the harmony.py, __init__.py and services.yaml into my homeassistant/components/remote folder rather than .homeassistant/custom_components/. See if that changes the situation at all.

iandday · October 10, 2016, 11:33pm

@trp
@datamonkey

I copied the remote directory similar to what @Bahnburner did, in my case it was to ‘/usr/local/lib/python3.4/dist-packages/homeassistant/components/’

Bahnburner · October 11, 2016, 12:44am

@trp
@datamonkey

If you’re using the AIO or Hassbian, you’ll need to use

/srv/homeassistant/homeassistant_venv/lib/python3.4/site-packages/homeassistant/components/remote

or

/srv/hass/hass_venv/lib/python3.4/site-packages/homeassistant/components/remote

depending on your virtual environment location.

datamonkey · October 11, 2016, 8:35am

Thanks, I moved the files and downloaded again from github.
Seems like I moved one line further. Now it is missing pyharmony

I havent done anything about pyharmony as @iandday explained HASS would take care of it.

trp · October 11, 2016, 9:48am

Much like @datamonkey moving the files didn’t work.
I used the pip3 install method, no AIO or Hassbian. Files now located: .homeassistant/components/remote/

I have also not installed pyharmony at this time.

New error:

16-10-11 10:44:54 homeassistant.loader: Unable to find component remote

Bahnburner · October 11, 2016, 6:23pm

@datamonkey

I had to manually install pyharmony. You can get it from pypi and install using

pip install pyharmony-1.0.7.tar.gz

trp · October 11, 2016, 7:22pm

@Bahnburner @datamonkey

Installing pyharmony didn’t help for me… is there a way I can test the pyharmony install?

datamonkey · October 11, 2016, 8:11pm

I don’t want to be a pain, but rather than installing components manually I want to rely on the code to do that for me. It is part of testing the dependency handling as well.

If you think it is not ready for that and we can test dependencies later, then I am happy to do that too.

Bahnburner · October 11, 2016, 8:14pm

python3 pyharmony

should return

usage: pyharmony [-h] --email EMAIL --password PASSWORD --harmony_ip
                 HARMONY_IP --harmony_port HARMONY_PORT
                 [--loglevel {INFO,DEBUG,ERROR,WARNING,CRITICAL}]
                 {show_config,show_current_activity,start_activity,power_off,sync,send_command}
                 ...
pyharmony: error: the following arguments are required: --email, --password, --harmony_ip, --    harmony_port

@datamonkey: I’ll leave it up to @iandday to determine the root cause of the missing pyharmony dependancy. I can only tell you what steps I took to eliminate the issue and get the component working.

iandday · October 11, 2016, 10:09pm

the remote directory should not be copied to your .homeassistant configuration directory, it should be copied to the components directory located in the directory the HASS package is installed to. I used pip to install HASS on my machine and the install path is ‘/usr/local/lib/python3.4/dist-packages/homeassistant’

iandday · October 11, 2016, 10:13pm

I have followed the development instructions by specifying the REQUIREMENTS variable on line 91 of harmony.py.

REQUIREMENTS = [‘pyharmony>=1.0.7’]

Since my commit I ran the gen_requirements_all.py which created a requirements_all.txt file at the root of my home assistant development directory. I don’t see the same file on my production machine, it must be utilized during the setup process.

datamonkey · October 12, 2016, 10:47am

OK, thanks, seems like the install should be taken care of when installing HASS.

So I did the pyharmony install manually
This is where my lack of pythin and virtual environment understanding set me back but it is running now.
Here the steps I took, it might help the next guy.
I am running hass on a raspberry pi 3 with AIO installer

# go to virtual environment
sudo su -s /bin/bash hass
source /srv/hass/hass_venv/bin/activate

# download pyharmony
cd /tmp
wget https://github.com/iandday/pyharmony/tarball/1.0.7

# install 
pip install 1.0.7

that did the trick for me, now I can see a basic remote component.

iceball · October 12, 2016, 10:57am

Tried the same, RPI3 with Hassbian / virtual env… Problems with installing:

[quote]Collecting 1.0.7
Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement 1.0.7 (from versions: )
No matching distribution found for 1.0.7[/quote]

trp · October 12, 2016, 11:38am

OK, update:

I installed pyharmony after download from pypi (sudo pip install pyharmony-1.0.7.tar.gz) - some errors seen without sudo, not recorded.
Out of interest the command (python3 pyharmony) doesn’t give me the feedback @Bahnburner mentioned…

Following @iandday instructions, I placed the “remote” folder into “/usr/local/lib/python3.4/dist-packages/homeassistant”
and, hey presto, I have a working sensor!

iandday · October 12, 2016, 11:17pm

I haven’t worked with virtual environments before, but you should be able to use pip to install it by specifying the package name pyharmony. I installed it on my production ubuntu instance with pip3 install pyharmony
