Maybe it should be in a new thread, but here I go.
So I bought me a WR167E. But I don’t know how to install and configure it in Home Assistant. Reading all it looks like one variant is to connect directly and on is via the cloud. Please can any one provide me with a step by step instruction?
I must be missing something…
Simply follow the link in the first post. This is your step by step tutorial which I also successfully followed two weeks ago And yes, it also uses some additional references. I simply followed the first 3 steps under “requirements” and then did the installation.
I’m good until point 2.
But #3 ‘Copy folders www and packages with all content in your homeassistant folder’. The ‘homeassistant’ folder which is that, ‘packages’? What files should the it contain? A little bit confusing…
Hi, the homeassistant folder is the config folder. I use the Samba share extension to browse to: \YOUR-IP\config.
Copy the www & packages folders to the config folder.
I’m at work, so I don’t have samba connection here.
But progress, it looks like I have connected to the cloud (no errors in log file)!!
Is there a zip file with these items?
Success!!! I can se it!
Looks like the config directory is going to be messy!
@Gohper i am as well stuck at step number 3 in installation ‘Copy folders www and packages with all content in your homeassistant folder’.
This is my folder structure in my Synology NAS where i am confused on what should i do exactly
On the right
Copy www folder from the right to where exactly ? And seems I have no packages folder.
Copy folders www and packages from github to the right panel your mc
Thanks @Barmalej . Got caught in configuring HA an HACS that i forgot what i was doing
Now, moving further i got these errors when adding a new card. Fold entity row was installed via HACS and i changed in the iOS app the name of my Landroid to Mower.
folder structure now looks like this:
/volume1/@appstore/homeassistant/var/config/www with subfolders
- /community/lovelace-fold-entity-row
- /mower
Thanks in advance for any tips !
I just tried to get it up and running too, ended up with the same errors.
Being a developer I have no problem understanding the workings of things - but I still had a challenge following the instructions to begin with.
One thing that confused me (and I notice I am not the first) was the instruction ' 3. Copy folders **www** and **packages** with all content in your homeassistant folder'
. For me it was not obvious what the definition of “homeassistant folder” is. After some digging (including reading previous messages in this thread of course) I understand that the way Home Assistant is installed matter. For instance - I installed it by firing up an old RPi I had with the latest version of the Home Assistant OS. Seems to me that the “Home Assistant Folder” in my case really is the folder ‘config’ that’s a directory directly under '/'
(but soft linked from root user home, ie in '/root/'
).
Installing HACS, fold_entity_row, Landroid Cloud integration and even following the guide for this package is really not the challenge I believe. It has to be related to the variations of different setups and possibly other things that change outside this package - like HAOS or HA itself for instance.
Well, I have just entered this world so I might give me some time to digest everything - I’m sure there are things to try once I’ve just read up a bit.
Addition: Since most of the images show in the card for the landroid I assume paths are essentially ok in my case. Trying the scripts / services in the Landroid Integration to get the landroid to mow or return home etc generates errors: Seem to be Python related errors (calling function with NoneType). This is probably since the values fed to the scripts cannot be obtained.
I made changes in README.md, is so clearer?
- Copy folders www and packages with all content in your homeassistant configuration folder (you can find configuration.yaml there)
Is the value of: {{ state_attr('sensor.landroid_mower_status','id') }}
in Developer Tools in Template editor not None?
Sorry for my bad english
Hi,
No worries, I find your English quite sufficient (not my native language either).
And yes, just by specifying it’s the configuration folder makes it much more clear - would have saved me some head scratching for sure. The issue here is not your instructions, really, it’s the variations of how the whole eco system seems to have depending on the type of install.
I’ll check those values - but from what I can gather by quickly browsing through the core logs one issue is that the sensor entities that should be installed by the landroid integration install, is not working. And if they do not work, I can understand if they don’t provide proper data to the services. Then again, I haven’t really dived into it.
All in all, it looks like you’ve done an amazing job with this package!
Thanks to Barmalej for this great package! I got it working after some time. One thing I think would be worth mentioning in install instructions is that in addition to “fold-entity-row” add-on, you also need “card-tools” add-on installed, or otherwise you will see “Custom element doesn’t exist: fold-entity-row” -error on your card.
One thing I miss from Landroid official app that I can refresh current status of my landroid at anytime. Is it still not possible via Home Assistant and this package?
Thank you, added in install instruction
Great card! Bought the M500 today and was able to implement it without issues. Going to install it in the weekend (if the weather allows it).
Now I read on some pages things about account being blocked. Can this be prevented? (less polling for example)
I also noticed, I wanted image of the mower with stats on the front page and the full card on a second page (with the editing), however, if I remove all extra’s on my homepage it shows the card like the picture above, but on my second page it also doesn’t show the settings (it does when I click the edit page button, but as soon as I save only the picture is shown). Any idea?
The info and config appears if you tap on “i” button
Hi @jakob.tewes
did you manage to fix the date. i see the time in utc+3 instead of utc+2. i am referring to Landroid lastupdate
I am in germany.
Thanks! Hadn’t noticed the i yet. Works great.
