Testing 2.8.0 #498

rojer · 2021-02-14T13:02:59Z

Starting the 2.8 release cycle.

What are we testing:

Valve support (Valve #433) (no timer support and only generic valve and irrigation at the moment)
Doorbell support (Doorbell #375) (set Input to detached and Input HAP Type to Doorbell)
Web UI changes, making sure stuff still works after cleanups and refactoring
Inverted output mode (Add: Inverted Output #408)
Longer ramp-up time for roller-shutter (Shelly 2.5 Roller Shutter Calibration - Time until movement #324)
Longer sensor release time for garage door opener (Firmware 2.7.3 problem with Shelly1 "garage door opener" mode problem with close sensor #448)
network connectivity issues.

Hello i have extensively tested the 2.8.0-alpha1 version with a shelly 1 HAP Service Type Valve. I couldn't find any errors. Can I leave the alpha version installed until the current version comes out? Many thanks again for the migration

rojer · 2021-02-14T15:09:34Z

thanks @danny1605 . leave it on the device, once 2.8.0 is released you will be able to update to it via regular update check.

Valve support seems ok for generic and irrigation, but Faucet and Shower Head do not work on my Shelly1, i just get no response.

Tested the doorbell mode in a test environment and seems to work fine. No issues discovered.

timoschilling · 2021-02-21T15:09:50Z

@DerKoller-eu sounds wrong, but is actual expected behaviour. Input Mode: Detached means that there is not "connection" between the input and the output of the shelly.

Hotfix: create a HomeKit automatisation which turns on your "Shelly-Doorbell" in HomeKit when the Doorbell is triggered.

For the longterm we can add a explicit mode for that.

rojer · 2021-02-23T01:07:27Z

pushed alpha2

lieberjott · 2021-02-23T20:06:55Z

Quick question: Manual calibration for roller shutters (#449) won't be yet added?

rojer · 2021-02-23T21:22:49Z

correct. won't make it into 2.8 but will be in 2.9

I just tested the alpha3 version. Using an automation makes sense if you want something like a condition based on time of day (e.g. don't ring gong in the middle of the night). In order to get my gong sounding "properly" I needed to configure the auto off to a sub seconds delay.

rojer · 2021-03-06T00:31:38Z

pushed alpha4. fixed layout for roller shutter section, plus networking changes in the backend (reverted to LWIP 1.4, reportedly it's more stable)

pivale · 2021-03-08T10:15:45Z

Lost http conectivity to most of my devices after alpha5. I can't access them by browser and update-script fails to connect.
I can ping them all though, so they are still alive and responsive.

Power cycling didn't help...

and i bet homekit still works.

danny1605 · 2021-03-08T12:46:16Z

the same problem, a connection via browser is no longer possible.

andyblac · 2021-03-08T19:23:01Z

can someone confirm something in alpha5, i think webui issues is linked with number of HAP connections, I can access webui, with no issues if HAP connections is 3 or less, as soon i hit 4 problems start, webui is hit and miss, the more HAP connections device has the worse it gets, over 5 and you loose total webui access.

Yep, only http server seems to be affected... Homekit is still working

how can I help confirm that? currently all my shellys are unavailable (although working...)

danny1605 · 2021-03-09T15:27:53Z

i have the same problem too, after the update to alpha5.

reboot, open log screen in separate tab, keep an eye on it for connections

danny1605 · 2021-03-09T17:55:33Z

@andyblac
I can't see anything conspicuous, but the connection is lost

The log screen at the time when the connection was no longer possible -->

yup, 4 HAP connections, as i said above soon as i hit 4 connections i get issues.

rojer · 2021-03-09T18:16:29Z

that's useful, thank you! i think i have an idea why

rojer · 2021-03-09T20:52:05Z

Thanks to eagle eyed @andyblac this is now fixed - there was a limit on number of TCP connections, set to 5.
I pushed alpha6, please try it.

so far so good, i'll keep an eye on it

Thanks to eagle eyed @andyblac this is now fixed - there was a limit on number of TCP connections, set to 5.

Anyway we can reserve one connection always for webserver/script purposes?
It would prevent us from being left out, like now...

HAP is limited to 12 connections, we have 20 TCP connections available now, no need too

pivale · 2021-03-10T17:08:57Z

Cool, great to know 👍 Thanks for the info

rojer · 2021-03-11T02:25:17Z

ok, i think 2.8 is ready. any objections?

andyblac · 2021-03-11T12:04:28Z

all good here.

danny1605 · 2021-03-11T14:33:21Z

ok, i think 2.8 is ready. any objections?

all of my 20 shellys work very well with the alpha 6 version. thank you for that

pivale · 2021-03-11T16:43:02Z

All seems to be working as intended here with alpha6.
Only strange behaviour was my shelly plug S going into AP mode (1st time it happened)... Not sure it's even related

log attached, if useful

andyblac · 2021-03-11T19:58:10Z

i'll close this one, now 2.8.0 has been released.

looks like noise on button input.

rojer · 2021-03-11T20:01:03Z

submitted a fix, this will become 2.8.1. damn, i should've looked first

rojer · 2021-03-11T20:02:11Z

@timoschilling i'm flipping logic of 023159d back to "noisy button by default".

andyblac · 2021-03-11T20:02:34Z

submitted a fix, this will become 2.8.1. damn, i should've looked first

haha, i know whats like 🤣

timoschilling · 2021-03-11T20:13:24Z

@rojer as it's still configurable, it's fine for me. Maybe would you like to document why the noisy button is need and on which device.

rojer · 2021-03-11T20:15:44Z

rather, where it was observed. makes sense.

ok, pushed 2.8.1. i think 2.8.0 was the shortest lived release :)
