use logger to suppress logs

243

Ok, thnx for the info

244

I need to double check my config, but I have logging set to error for the Waze component and I still see warning messages in my log. If I have the logger component configured correctly (and I’m pretty sure I do) then it would appear the logger settings for Waze are ignored.

245

Then it’s not set properly. Logger is what handles all the verbiage that appears in logger and it’s based on the name in brackets on warnings. Components only output to logger, they do not control what logger displays. This is what your config should look like:

logger:
  default: info
  logs:
    homeassistant.components.waze_travel_time: error

even further:

logger:
  default: info
  logs:
    homeassistant.components.waze_travel_time.sensor: error

but there is only the sensor portion for waze so it doesn’t matter if you include it or not.

246

Yep I have the second one in my config. And my actual homeassistant.log does not have anything about Waze. I guess it is working. What confused me was the log preview when you go to the developer tools tab. It shows Waze errors, but they don’t actually get logged in a log file.

247

I wonder if that’s intended
 I would expect it to get filtered there too. Hmm

248

Nah doesn’t work that way

Hi guys, trying to get waze to work but I just get unknown, even with the sample code on the Waze integration page, what do you see wrong with the below? Nothing is being logged as an error

- platform: waze_travel_time
    origin: xx.34558134607712, -x.4133548736572275
    destination: yy.44944577656866, -y.22002124786377
    name: To Work
    region: 'EU'        

  - platform: waze_travel_time
    origin: Montréal, QC
    destination: Québec, QC
    name: WazeTest
    region: 'US'
250

Seems your spaces are wrong for the second one


Move the second one 2 spaces to left (title: -platform
)

251

Sorry it just copied over like that, it is correct in Visual Studio Code and when I do a check config. Just seems like the integration is not actually working.

Edit: The numbers just came up now, I guess it took a while for them to update.

252

Yes ,interval is default 5 min, seems on first reboot it doesnt work, so it starts working after 5

253

Would it be possible to somehow make the card red if let’s say the commute time is over a certain amount like 60 mins?

254

take a look at custom lovelace cards that allow you to change the background. Do you have HACS (Home assistant community store) installed?

255

I do, what’s it called? Would it not work with standard picture glance?

256

config template card in combination with lovelace card mod.

257

This component not support Asia/Apac region yet right ? :disappointed_relieved:

258

Try EU. I have no idea if Asia fits into any region. The limit is on waze side, not the component.

259

Got it work on EU for “malaysia” thanks :wink:

260

Indonesia seems not to do anything on EU

ate least not when using a device_tracker as origin and the destination in EU. (calculating travel time to home)
should I reverse the source and destination maybe? Or does it simply not cover the region.

which would seem inadequate, since a simple template like {{distance(states.device_tracker.device_in_indonesia)}} does work. Which are of course only km’s and no travel directions, appreciate that.

261

I’m pretty sure waze does not work accross bodies of water. The api only selects 1 travel type by default which is TAXI (Car). Can a car drive over the water?

Try the address in the live map, If it doesn’t work, it won’t work in the component.
