I noticed in a recent update that Zwave JS UI is now included with the base Zwave JS app. However I was running Zwave JS UI already before. I’ve stopped and uninstalled the old ZWave JS UI app but in the new Zwave JS that includes the UI, all of my devices show as unknown attributes. Like this:
As well, the devices are not functioning in the dashboard. I can ping them though in the new Zwave JS ui. I tried to do a re-interview node, and refresh values but still doesn’t seem to be listing them correctly.
Ok. It was still installed. I’m just going to reset everything. I have smart provisioning templates that I can just import for most things, so it should be easy to re-do stuff in the new configuration. thanks again.
I see in this forum conflicting reports on Zwave JS and Zwave JS UI. One version is that Zwave JS UI will disappear and one needs to transfer to Zwave JS eventually.
What is the reality ?
ZwaveJS-UI is a HACS (user community made) app, ZWaveJS is the “official” HA made app.
The older version of ZWaveJS was limited in UI functionality, hence the HACS version was made.
in the latest ZWaveJS version, all of the UI functionality is now included, making the HACS version redundant.
Please read the link above how to migrate from the HACS version to the official version, it more then a remove of the old app and install of the new app, some configuration files need to be migrated as well.
amost unreal how complicated this is. running linux scripts, peek, poke, compile, configure… this is why I would really bin this whole HA thing and move to apple or homey or whatever.
I had a working thing and nabu casa wrecked it, forcing me to execute manouvres I am absolutely not comfortable with.
