LIFX not being discovered about ha-lifx-beta HOT 20 CLOSED

Are you running this Beta or the built-in integration? If you're using this Beta integration, try enabling "Duplicate Discovery" in the Configure options on the Integrations page. If you're using the built-in integration, there is a fix waiting to be merged.

from ha-lifx-beta.

I have the beta using HACS, I assume that you should already have the LIFX integration installed but not working (unavailable) to be able to see the configure options. So I manually added the light back in and it got discovered then checked the duplicate discovery option. Then I removed the manual setup in configuration.yaml and the light was still unavailable.

If the beta was suppose to fix the discoverability. Then for me it doesn't work :( Unless I botched something up xd

So for now I'll just use the manual setup.

from ha-lifx-beta.

Are the IP_ADDRESS you're using for server and broadcast the same? They shouldn't be. :) Can you check Settings -> System -> Network and make sure Home Assistant's networking setup is correct?

from ha-lifx-beta.

I have my HA on 192.168.1.120 (server) and my LIFX on 192.168.1.102 (Broadcast) for the configuration.yaml

from ha-lifx-beta.

Righto. It would be great if you could double-check that Home Assistant's networking config is corrent (via Settings -> System -> Network) and then enable debug logging and remove the hard-coded configuration so there's hopefully some clue as to why the discovery isn't working correctly.

from ha-lifx-beta.

This is the Network config in HA
Auto Configure
Detected: eth0 (192.168.1.120/24)veth1ff5018 (192.168.1.120/24)

Here is the log when trying to add the LIFX integration using tail -f

Can you please add custom_components.lifx: debug to the logger config so I can see the beta integration debug logs too?

from ha-lifx-beta.

This is my configuration yaml

# Configure a default setup of Home Assistant (frontend, api, etc)
default_config:

logger:
  logs:
    custom_components.lifx: debug

# Text to speech
tts:
  - platform: google_translate

scene: !include scenes.yaml

So I deleted the LIFX integration in HA (not the beta in HACS) and this is the log results when I click submit when attempting to add the LIFX integration

I'm not seeing any new debug information

from ha-lifx-beta.

Sorry if I'm being confusing (I have Covid atm, so my brain is a bit mushy), but I want to see the logs during normal operation, i.e. when Home Assistant is starting after the integration was added, not while you add the integration. The method used to determine whether or not to show the LIFX integration option is completely different to how bulbs are actually discovered once the integration is added.

So, with that configuration.yaml, please add the LIFX integration via the UI, and then add the debug logs for what happens afterwards or after a restart.

from ha-lifx-beta.

Just a quick side note, I added manual discovery so that I can add the LIFX integration, found out that I needed to delete the beta version for LIFX to be integrated (automatically integrated). Which removed this error

Now that the integration is re-added, I reinstalled the LIFX beta and removed the manual discovery (server, broadcast), now light is unavailable.
I tried to add the full log to pastebin but it doesn't work. Is there a specific string I should grep for?

from ha-lifx-beta.

If you have debug logging enabled, it would be good to see all the log entries for custom_components.lifx

from ha-lifx-beta.

With the recent HA version series 2022.6.X I also lost my LIFX integration. I have tried using HACS and this repo without success

I'm only seeing the following in the ha log
2022-06-12 13:01:06 WARNING (SyncWorker_0) [homeassistant.loader] We found a custom integration lifx which has not been tested by Home Assistant. This component might cause stability problems, be sure to disable it if you experience issues with Home Assistant

with the following set in my configuration
logger:
default: info
logs:
custom_components.lifx: debug

I'm running a dedicated rpi3 with Home Assistant OS 8.1.

The rpi3 is running on an IOT VLAN with the LIFX devices connected via an IOT SSID to the same IOT VLAN.

Happy to help debug if I can?

from ha-lifx-beta.

The lack of any debug logs indicates that there is no LIFX configuration, so please indicate how your LIFX integration is configured: do you have a lifx: configuration entry in your configuration.yaml file (or via !include) or did you add it via the Integrations page under settings?

If you removed the LIFX configuration before installing this beta component, it should have automatically prompted you to configure it. If you didn't remove the LIFX configuration, the beta component should automatically use the existing configuration.

If you have no configuration, both the core plugin and the custom component should automatically discover bulbs and prompt for configuration. Check your ignored integrations to see if it's hiding there perhaps.

from ha-lifx-beta.

Appreciate you getting back to me! I had it configured via Integrations page under settings and nothing in my configuration.yaml.

Initially I tried with this configuration and installed the beta component without any luck! I also tried removing the configuration under the Integrations page and removing and re-installing the beta component and still nothing is found.

Thanks heaps Chris

If Home Assistant is not prompting you to enable the LIFX integration (built-in or beta via HACS) then it's auto detection mechanism isn't working properly. Please check your Home Assistant network configuration to ensure that it's configured correctly.

from ha-lifx-beta.

It was working 100% on 2022.5.X and earlier and the problem only surfaced on 2022.6.X. Nothing had changed in either my network setup or HA configuration and I have had LIFX integration working for a number of years!

Totally agree it does sound like auto detection is no longer working!

from ha-lifx-beta.

Do you have LIFX listed as active on your Integrations page? If not, can you add it manually to see what happens?

from ha-lifx-beta.

It was on the Integrations page and was no longer working and was the reason I was trying out this beta! I have removed it to try and see if the beta maybe working in that configuration. When I try to manually re-added LIFX integration I get the message below

No devices found on the network

Appreciate all the help!

from ha-lifx-beta.

I'm going to close this now as the core integration is going with a completely different method for managing LIFX devices from 2022.8 onwards.

from ha-lifx-beta.

Ok no worries at all! FYI I got it working again after rebuilding my hassio rpi3 and restoring a backup and setting up HACS + LIFX beta.
