openHAB 2.0 binding

How do I add this button from the paper UI ? I can´t understand what to enter in the child id, node id fields.

@Cliff-Karlsson : Start the discovery process in the paper ui and after that restart your sensor. The sensor will represent itself while starting up and should appear in the paper ui.

Well if I add a door sensor and just enter some random node id/child Id it shows up as online. I never managed to add any sensor automatically even if I start the search process and resetting any sensors.
But the problem is that I can't get any reaction from the switch. I have tried connecting a button to pin 3 and also tried just connecting a cable from pin 3 to gnd. But no reaction whatever I do.

@TimO Good to know its not just me, may still be O2 it is alpha after all.
Now to figure out these rules..
@Qu3Uk : Fixed the error. The sensors were initialized before the bridge was up.
@Cliff-Karlsson: The status of a thing in OH is not reliable and I'm yet not sure how to make it reliable because the connection between sensor and gateway is stateless, so a sensor maybe is online even if it only transmits one time per day.
In your case: what is the output of the "start_debug.sh"? Are there messages from the MySensors Gateway logged?

Nice work!
Did anyone try the binding with FakeMySensors?

I'm pretty sure this time it is a bug in OH2, because my code works sometimes. :-)
I've found a workaround and got 10/10 clean starts of OH2 and reinitializations of the configured things.Please let me know, if the error occures again!
Thanks for testing!!

How do I keep openhab2 updated after installing?
-
What do you want to keep updated? The OH2 runtime? The binding?
I update the link of the binding (jar-file) in the first post here whenever I add or fix something. You only have to switch this jar file in your installation. In the current alpha phase it is an good idea to delete the userdata folder, but with that you will lose all already discovered and added things. I have configured all things/items that should survive a deletion of the userdata in the thing.conf, items.conf etc.
For the future I plan to make a pull request so that the mysensors binding will be a fixed part of OH2, but I want to ensure its stability before I do so. Additionally there are some features I would like to add before making a pull request.

@ZoTyA said:
after OH2 restart I got "UNINITIALIZED - HANDLER_INITIALIZING_ERROR" for all already existing sensors. If I add a new sensors it works until OH2 restart
This should be fixed but I don't think @Tim0 has released the fix yet? Might be wrong.

@Qu3Uk I asked a similar question about persistence on the OH2 forum and the response was you could set up a group and configure persistence for it. Then as the new items are dynamically found they just need to be added to the group without adding them to the config files. Possibly the same thing would work for rules.
-
@TimO Slightly off topic but am I right in thinking even with discovered things you still have to manually create an item for the thing in the item.conf for stuff like rules to work?

@TimO I'm having difficulty with the mysensors binding and the zwave binding on OH2 startup. If both bindings are present, then mysensors gets loaded first (port=/dev/ttyS2) and then zwave tries to load (port=/dev/ttyUSB0) however it reports that it's serial port is not present. If I remove the mysensors binding jar file from addons and then start OH2, the zwave binding connects to its serial port correctly and works fine. I can then mv the mysensors binding back into addons and it will get loaded and bind correctly to it's serial port. I've tried to turn the logging up to debug and not got anything more from the bindings to tell me what's happening. any help is appreciated. thanks.
-
@BenCranston : Thanks for the bug report! You're right I'm able to reproduce this error. The zwave and mysensors binding both use the same library (gnu.io) to access serial ports.
-
@TimO I'm beginning to think this might be platform specific to the gnu.io library and manifest on ARM architectures. I moved my OH2 installation over to my Mac and "Viola!" both services started working without an issue. Are you on an ARM platform as well? Initially I was running the MySensors gateway off of a GPIO serial port on my Pi. As part of working this I moved the gateway to an FTDI USB connection, so both devices were /dev/ttyUSB[01]. That didn't change the behavior and they still failed to co-exist from boot. I'm going to take a look at the gnu.io RXTX stuff and see if I can find a lead there... I'm not a java programmer, so this should be fun.
