Off topic, but currently the Broadlink switch can not continuously listen for incoming signal. But I think that should be possible.
You can try to always have the the Broadlink device in learn mode, and as soon as you have receive a signal you set it back to learn mode.
that would be cool
Good to know
Something weird is happening… I had a motion sensor go “on” at 2pm, and a magnet sensor go “on” at 2:56pm, but there was no motion nor the door opened. Both are still locked in the “on” state. On the Mi Home app there are no records of that (the last activity logged in the app was way before that for both, which is correct).
I updated to 0.36 yesterday.

I was having the same issue today… Looks like this is happening since my 0.36 upadate…
0.36 is broken. There are a lot of issues and breaking changes in the api. I heard 0.36.1 fixes some of the issues
So we should wait for the 0.36.1 version and then start debugging for issues?
There’s a new xiaomi router script on 0.36.x with the same name as the gateway. I just renamed the gateway from xiaomi to xiaomigateway and it’s working fine.

0.36.1 is already out.
Very rarely the component fails to setup when restarting HA 0.36.1 on Raspbian, log below. Simply restarting again fixes the problem.

What’s the config of the trigger that you are using?

- switch.plug_158d00010ad6f1Hi Thank for integrating the xiaomi components in Home Assistant.
Although i am using HA for some time now and i am in continual learning of new things i have no idea on how to insert the component in the configuration folder.
From what i remember i installed HA on my pi direct not trough the image or all in one installer and i am not in virtual environment…
I cannot find anywhere the component folder I am using WinSCP and scanned for it and nothing was found.
My HA config is on /var/opt/homeassistant and only folder other than configuration yaml files is a folder called deps.
I installed pycrypto-2.6.1 and it says in putty that is installed in /root/.cache/pip/wheels/80/1f/94/f76e9746864f198eb0e304aeec319159fa41b082f61281ffce
I cannot find any error in HA and no new component was added in to my sensors.
Any help is much appreciated since i have no idea how to make it work.
Thanks for all the hard work to make this work.
Hi adifoto,
you just need to create a new folder called custom_components under your homeassistant directory (assuming /var/opt/homeassistant). After that you just need to copy the files from component folder from git to your new folder.
Hey guys, i’m having some random errors in the log file

I’m on 0.36.1 and things are looking good for now (only a couple of hours of testing). Any idea what should be the cause of this bug?
Hi pikapt thanks for your response i deed copy it but in deps. that i found other components like (in the specific folders):
forecastio
fuzzywuzzy
fuzzywuzzy-0.14.0.dist-info
jsonrpc_async
jsonrpc_async-0.2.dist-info
jsonrpc_base
jsonrpc_base-0.1.dist-info
limitlessled
and others.
I assume that is the folder with the components
I will give it a try on mine directory to see if that may change something.
Just deed, created a new folder called custom_components that has inside:
binary_sensor
light
sensor
switch
xiaomi.py
once again there is no error and no component.
Thanks again
