New Plugin for HTTP/HTTPS Service probes

p4co86

I dont see any errors on the nas!
all work fine, just the error in pimatic is anyyoing. I get 300 in 40 minutes When the nas is offline.
Nmap work with a rule every 10 sec. But how can i set a rule with a present dummy? And nmap gives a big notice on the webinterfce when nmap was executed. That doesent look very good. Any other method how it could work?

mwittig

@p4co86 OK, I’ll make sure there will be less error logging with the next version of pimatic-probe:

Instead of logging an error I could perhaps store the error in a variable.
I could also implement a strategy to avoid logging the same error message over and over again

p4co86

That would be nice. Thanks for that

p4co86

Ive found found a strange behavour. When i use httpprobe in rule and say … is present then it doesent work. Device is shown as present. It looks like tat absent and present are mixed. Any one else can confirm this?

mwittig

@p4co86 Sure?

I have tested this and the following works 100% for me. Make sure you have the latest version of pimatic installed.

// Devices (sp1 is a Switch, basically)

Please note, I have published Version 0.0.5 which solves two issues with probing “https” servers:

Fixed bug: “Protocol:https: not supported”
Fixed issue with web server using an untrusted certificate resulting in an “UNABLE_TO_VERIFY_LEAF_SIGNATURE” error. Untrusted cert will be accepted for now. This feature will be configurable with the next release.

p4co86

ok thanks, will test it later. it only occurs, when i have a rule like: if Server is present and Movie button is preset that it wouldn`t work. the present alone work. it is not mixed, my fault.

ive not updated jet, when iam back home i will do update and report.

p4co86

Ive tested it. A rule like this works.

If server is present then turn on nachtlampe

A rule like this would not work.

If button movie is pressed and server is present then turn on nachtlampe

so you say it is normal that there will be errors in pimatic when server is offline.
It would be very nice when this could be handled smarter.

have updated to 0.0.5

Thanks.

mwittig

@p4co86 just wondering: Did you also test the following?

If button movie is pressed then turn on nachtlampe

p4co86

of course ! this works when i test the and thing with ping plugin it works.

mwittig

@mwittig said: OK, I am just trying to figure out what you’re saying:

The rule If button movie is pressed then turn on nachtlampe is working fine for you
The rule If server is present then turn on nachtlampe is working fine if server is a HttpProbe device.
The rule If button movie is pressed and server is present then turn on nachtlampe is also working fine for you if server is a PingPresence device.
However, the previous does not work, if server is a HttpProbe device.

Can you confirm this?

If yes, I am a bit lost here as the combined expression should work if the single expressions do. I’ll do some more testing on my side, but may be some Pimatic expert else can help as well, please?

p4co86

Yes! This is the exact behavour

mwittig

@p4co86 ok, thanks. I have done more testing and I have not been able to reproduce the problem. Maybe you have other rules which are conflicting with the rule in question. So it would be helpful if I can perhaps review the complete rule set you have.

NB: I have published V0.0.6 which has reduced error logging

p4co86

this are my rules.

      "rule": "if Kodi Media Center is turned off then turn off Kodi Wohnzimmer after 10 seconds",

      "rule": "if Multi Room button is pressed or [Radio is on and Media Center Wohnzimmer is present] then turn on NAS Server and turn on Radio and turn on Kodi Media Center after 70 seconds and after 80 seconds execute \"expect -f /root/programme/multiroom.expect\" and set $ambient to \"Multiroom\"",

      "active": true,
      "logging": false
    }
  ],

this is the rule wich wouldnt work.

    {
      "id": "autoplay-1live-kuche",
      "name": "Autoplay 1Live Küche",
      "rule": "if Multiroom Server is present and Radio button is pressed then execute \"expect -f /root/programme/autoplay.expect\" and log \"klappt\"",
      "active": true,
      "logging": true
    },

with ping device it works.
and with switch instead of button too.

@p4co86 Thank you for sending me the rules set. This was very helpful and I finally I managed to reproduce the problem on my test site. Finally, I think I have solved the issue and published a new version.

Please update to pimatic-probe@0.0.7 and let me know about your results.

p4co86

after updating it works. Would it be possible to accept status codes like 404, 102… so that i never had a error when the nas is offline? Then it would be peeeeerfect!
Thanks.

@p4co86 Glad to hear it is working fine for you known.

Regarding accepting response status codes as a “present” result you can do this as part of the device setup!
See pimatic-probe#http-response-status-codes and example below:

{
      "id": "probe5",
      "class": "HttpProbe",
      "name": "WebServer",
      "url": "http://www.local-server.tld:8080",
      "acceptedStatusCodes": [
        200,
        102,
        401,
        404
      ]
},

A new version (v0.0.8) of the plugin is available:

Added support for xAttributeOptions property as part of the device configuration
Added verifyPeerCert property to HttpProbe device configuration to enable or disable certificate verification
(disabled by default). This is to replace the temporary fix for the “UNABLE_TO_VERIFY_LEAF_SIGNATURE” issue
added in v0.0.5
Extended documentation of device configuration option

@mwittig hi,
there is a solution about “Error: connect ECONNREFUSED”?

I am not sure what kind of solution you have in mind. The error is output to indicate that there is no service on the target port. Do you want to have error messages supressed completely?
