Waze Travel Time - error

Bob_NL · April 14, 2018, 7:51am

Very happy to see Waze has finally been implemented into Hass.
Can’t get it to work though.

sensors.yaml:

  - platform: waze_travel_time
    name: Waze to Work
    origin: '{{ states.device_tracker.bob_s8.attributes.longitude,states.device_tracker.bob_s8.attributes.latitude }}'
    destination: <My work address here>
    region: 'EU'

error:

2018-04-14 09:45:56 ERROR (Thread-16) [homeassistant.components.sensor.waze_travel_time] Error on retrieving data: Internal Error

    return round(self._state['duration'])
KeyError: 'duration'

Doesn’t look like a config error to me. Anyone got it working?

VirtualL · April 14, 2018, 8:16am

I have successfully got it to work my config:

platform: waze_travel_time
name: Bla Bla Name
origin: 31.25405 , 34.79151
destination: 31.2618 , 34.80911
region: ‘IL’

i think your problem is with the info you get from
origin: ‘{{ states.device_tracker.bob_s8.attributes.longitude,states.device_tracker.bob_s8.attributes.latitude }}’

make sure the date you get gonna be in this format: LatitudeNUMBER , LongitudeNUMBER
(for instance 31.2618 , 34.80911)

(the same with destination format.)

you can use the livemap on waze to be sure you are in the right place: https://www.waze.com/livemap

Bob_NL · April 14, 2018, 8:59am

@VirtualL Thanks.

Hmm, for some reason the output has parenthesis:

If I hardcode the origin address (as text, so not as coordinates), the component works. However, according to the component the travel time is 40 minutes. If I open Waze, it says 21 minutes (which is correct).
Does your sensor value make any sense?

VirtualL · April 14, 2018, 11:34am

I think you need to make the info you get from origin: ‘{{ states.device_tracker.bob_s8.attributes.longitude,states.device_tracker.bob_s8.attributes.latitude }}’
Useful by split it and use the right attributes from it. (don’t know how to do it. Sorry)

and my sensor shows the correct time because the origin and destination are relatively an easy way, on highways, not so much of hassle

i think the difference between the time is because the route the sensor is taking (the fastest or the sorted) but I don’t know which one is chosen. just that you can click on the sensor info and see which route has been using for the calculations of time.

Shouldn’t it work like the google_travel_time component?

origin: device_tracker.<your device>
destination: zone.work

@firstof9 this gives a whole bunch of different errors:

Perhaps file a issue/suggestion for the component on Github requesting this type of function?

Bob_NL · April 14, 2018, 2:56pm

Also doesn’t work:

"{{ (states.device_tracker.bob_s8.attributes.longitude,states.device_tracker.bob_s8.attributes.latitude)| replace('(', ' ')| replace(')', ' ') }}"

Bob_NL · April 14, 2018, 3:22pm

Nope, I checked and it’s using the same route.

Hass:

All route options from Android phone:

This is what I get when avoiding freeways:

Time checks out with Hass, distance does not however.
Also, A15 is a freeway so it doesn’t make sense.

geoffrey · April 15, 2018, 3:09pm

I was hoping the same, but having a quick look on GitHub reveals that the code for the Waze component nowhere has a mention of the zone.

What I currenlty do is to use the secrets.yaml file containing all latitude and longitude coordinates as the following snippet shows

sensors.yaml

- platform: waze_travel_time
  name: Work Travel Waze
  origin: !secret gps_coordinates_home
  destination: !secret gps_coordinates_work
  region: EU

secrets.yaml

gps_coordinates_work: 50.9999999, 4.9999999

creakyshrimp · April 15, 2018, 5:14pm

in my case my waze sensor is reporting correct times and distances, but it randomly alternates between reporting the fastest and 2nd fastest routes (the fastest route in my case is shortest in time and distance).

something funny seems to be going on; i don’t know if it’s because of waze or the hass component.

Rodolfo_Vieira · April 17, 2018, 8:31pm

Hello my friend @Bob_NL i use this configuration

sensor:
  - platform: waze_travel_time
    origin: zone.notrabalho
    destination: zone.home
    region: 'EU'

and i have these errors:

how can solve it? did you know? Thanks

Bob_NL · April 19, 2018, 4:16pm

@Rodolfo_Vieira does it work when you enter the adresses as text?

petro · April 19, 2018, 4:43pm

I’m not sure when waze was added, but it looks like the response from the api does not contain the key ‘duration’. Looking at the source, if the updating the drive time fails with an error, the dictionary could not be completely populated. He should have a try: except KeyError: or he should be pre popluating the dictionary with empty strings.

petro · April 19, 2018, 4:45pm

FYI, it appears that none of these config locations accept templates. So all {{}} will fail. I also don’t think using zones will work either. It appears that it needs to be hard coded gps locations.

Bob_NL · April 19, 2018, 4:47pm

If that is the case, than this component is useless for my needs unfortunately. I hope that it will support templating soon!

petro · April 19, 2018, 4:49pm

well, i just confirmed that it requires hard coded strings. Its using cv.string, not cv.template. I don’t even know if templating works during setup. So even if he changed it, it may not work still.

creakyshrimp · April 19, 2018, 4:50pm

agree. zones don’t work. GPS coords as well as full street addresses do.

petro · April 19, 2018, 4:53pm

That makes sense, the component just passes the undoctored string from your config to the waze API.

Rodolfo_Vieira · April 19, 2018, 7:24pm

yes if i put the cordenates works fine, but zone no.
