Cannot find integration in HA

[ValiEne]

Hi Dmitry,
I've tried the HA integration and I'm facing some problems:

1. there are no files in releases section
2. I've downloaded and uploaded files into my HA instance and it looks like this:
   prana $ ls -alh
   total 60K
   drwxrwxrwx 3 root root 4.0K Dec 18 18:39 .
   drwxr-xr-x 5 root root 4.0K Dec 22 23:11 ..
   -rwxrwxrwx 1 root root 3.5K Dec 18 18:39 init.py
   -rwxrwxrwx 1 root root 8.2K Dec 18 18:39 config_flow.py
   -rwxrwxrwx 1 root root 1.4K Dec 18 18:39 const.py

   -rwxrwxrwx 1 root root 911 Dec 18 18:39 utils.py
   prana $ pwd
   /config/custom_components/prana
3. Restarted HA but I cannot find Prana Integration
   What i'm missing?

Everything seem to be correct. Which HomeAssistant version do you have? I've tested this with 0.118 and there is a place in the code which relies on the pretty recent internal api, so I suspect it might be the problem... If that's the case I could rewrite the code to avoid new api call - shouldn't be hard.

[corvis]

anyway it would be great to see if you have any errors in the log during the startup.

I didn't find any reference about this Integration in logs. Any way to activate debug level of logging for this component?

I'm running the latest HASSIO, this are the details about my installation:

version: 2020.12.1
installation_type: Home Assistant OS

host_os: Home Assistant OS 5.9
update_channel: stable
supervisor_version: 2020.12.7
docker_version: 19.03.13
Board: rpi4-64

[corvis]

Just updated my HASS to the recent version - everything seem to work fine. This makes me think it might be something specific to hass os and the way it manages custom components which prevents it from picking up this one...
Do you have any other custom components? Do they work as expected?

In order to enable extra logs for prana add the following line to your logger config: custom_components.prana: debug
So you have something like:

logger:
  default: info
  logs:
    custom_components.prana: debug

If you see no mentions of prana in logs it means HASS even doesn't try to load it. I expect to see at least these records in the log:

[homeassistant.loader] Loaded prana from custom_components.prana
[homeassistant.loader] You are using a custom integration for prana 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.

UPDATE: I tried to check on the fresh and clean installation of the recent hass. While I wan't able to reproduce your problem (missing integration in the integrations list) it revealed a serious dependency issue + a few config flow related issue which blocked me from completing setup.

I managed to fix all mentioned above which lead to a new release of prana_rc and multiple updates of homeassistant_prana so please update both. For homeassistant_prana check download the recent version from github and re-upload files.

[ValiEne]

Thanks Dmitry, somehow, after a number of reboots (HA and Hypervisor) the integration appeared at some point.
Now I need to see why a Rpi3 who was supposed to run prana-rc in http mode doesn't work (when I'm trying Integration I get an error "Unable to connect to Prana RC server"

[corvis]

Pushed the new docker image. Could you please try again after updating docker image with this image corvis/prana-rc:0.3.11 instead of latest. If still doesn't work please post hass logs and repeat the latest curl experiment.

[ValiEne]

Thanks a lot Dmitry, it works like a charm. Thanks a lot for your time, Merry Christmas

[corvis]

Oh wow, finally we've made it. Enjoy your new home automation! Also, please note - id doesn't support managing input and output flows separately at the moment as well as adjusting display brightness.

I'll update a doc to add port mapping thing which might confuse other people. Also, could you check if everything recovers when you reboot RPI3 with docker without your intervention? If not you might need to create a systemd module to run start container on boot.

Have a wonderful Christmas too.

One more thing :) You might want to disable DEBUG logging for prana integration in your config as it generates a new line each 30 secs.

[ValiEne]

Hi Dmitry,
Thanks again for your help, I really appreciate it.
No, after a reboot the image doesn't start automatically.
I saw the Input/Output part and I didn't know what they are referring to. I guess your Pranas are newer then mine which is 3-4 years old and on my model the ingress/egress air flow are working in parallel, no way to make it work sequential, like 30 sec. bring clean air and next 30 sec. remove air from the room. I saw a similar system at NovingAir but they are do it with multiple fans, minimum two, with the units working in sync, one is extracting air, the other bringing air in thee room for few tens of seconds and then the flow changes direction.

[ValiEne]

I said you tried with a fresh install, using the latest available version. Did you used HassOS or other method?

[corvis]

No, I just used the recent official hass docker image and installed on a fresh linux VM. I never tried HassOS so have no idea how it works.

[corvis]

Btw, yesterday I finally managed to integrate it into my real home setup and it seems to work fine.

So I've put a RPi running prana-rc in the center of the house and connected it with hass server siting in a sever room by wire.
Prana RC constantly keeps open bluetooth connections with my 3 Pranas which make the latency for turning on and of less then a second. So far so good, but we will see how stable this setup is...

Nice dashboard 👍
