Add support for Pedestrian Mode - DiscreteGateWithPedestrianPosition (io:DiscreteGateOpenerIOComponent)

[NicoLeOca]

Did you read the instructions?

• I have read the README, including the advanced debugging section.

The request

Hi
I integrated an outdoor gate, aka DiscreteGateWithPedestrianPosition for Somfy.
This device provides a pedestrian position where only one of the 2 gate leaves is opened.
Would it be possible to add it into this integration.
I added the debug logs of this device discovery below.

FYI also, in case it helps
This gate has 3 static positions: closed (2 leaves closed), opened (2 leaves opened) and pedestrian (one leaf opened).
This gate authorize to go from one state to any other, with no issue.

Which gateway / hub do you use?

Tahoma Short Channel (Somfy Tahoma v1)

Device model (optional)

DiscreteGateWithPedestrianPosition

Device type (optional)

5102007G06

Can you please download https://github.com/iMicknl/ha-tahoma/archive/refs/heads/enhancement/cover/pedestrian-position.zip, and replace the current custom component?

It should add a select to your gate device where you should be able to select opened, closed or pedestrian. There is also unknown, but it will trigger nothing. That’s a value Somfy can return.
Sadly, the state of the select will not be updated while #167 is not fixed.

[NicoLeOca]

Thank you @tetienne
I have the input_select. Selecting a different entry from the dropdown does not change anything.
However, the input_select gets changed when I action the gate via any other mean.

My debug logs do not give many hints

Also, the icon of the main entity is open when it's supposed to be closed.
I am not sure how it was in the stable release.

[tetienne]

@NicoLeOca I didn’t touch the main entity. This issue and PR will just focus on the select.
Can you please download again the zip file, and try again? I made a little mistake with my previous try. I also change the suffix of this select to Position instead of State.

[NicoLeOca]

Hi @tetienne
Thank you for your quick reaction.
The input_select entity works properly, thank you.
Would'nt it be more simple to integrate the pedestrian into the main entity as a button maybe?
At least, would it be possible to create a state reflecting the pedestrian, please? at the moment, the state in HA is open when it in pedestrian.

Also, there is an issue with the main entity. When my gate is closed, the state of the main entity is open, and so is the icon. Should I create a seperate bug report?

[tetienne]

What do you mean? An entity within HA can be:

Are you talking about the UI? If yes, you can create a button card, where the tap action will call a service:

service: select.select_option
data:
  option: pedestrian
target:
  entity_id: select.my_gate_position

IMO as you can have 3 states for the same device, the select is the perfect entity.

main entity
What do you call main entity?

[NicoLeOca]

You are right @tetienne
Sorry for being so demanding and thank you very much for this new feature

By main entity, I mean the cover entity

[tetienne]

@NicoLeOca Except the refresh issue I cannot tackle here, it's OK for you?

[NicoLeOca]

@tetienne
The pedestrian mode works well so far.
Thank you

There remain a bug where the state is wrong when the gate is closed. the state shows open in HA, in the cover entity.
Should I create a seperate issue for this bug?

[tetienne]

@NicoLeOca yes please
but double check the issue does not already exist.

[NicoLeOca]

Hi @tetienne
I updated this integration through HACS to the last version after having seen that this improvement was merged.
Your select entity was gone then.
I tried to delete the integration and reinstall from scratch but it doesn't fix anything.
Do you have an idea why?
Thanks

[iMicknl]

@tetienne it could be that my recent change broke this.. However it should at least create a select entity, perhaps just with a different key.

@NicoLeOca do you see a select option when you go to the integration -> devices list.

[NicoLeOca]

@iMicknl
no select entity/option appears anywhere I am afraid

[iMicknl]

@NicoLeOca not sure what changed to be honest. Could you check if this one works: https://github.com/iMicknl/ha-tahoma/archive/refs/heads/feature/add_select_entity_siren.zip.

[NicoLeOca]

@iMicknl
This one works fine! great job!

[NicoLeOca]

Please note that you change the select name compared to the one created previously
From whatever.entity.state to whatever.entity.position

[iMicknl]

Please note that you change the select name compared to the one created previously
From whatever.entity.state to whatever.entity.position

Maybe I accidentally changed the name. What would make more sense for that select entity? Using ‘Position’ or ‘State’?

[NicoLeOca]

@iMicknl
position is fine thanks
(I was only pointing it out in case it would create issues)

[NicoLeOca]

Hi @iMicknl
have you merged your fix into the master branch?

[iMicknl]

The latest fix you tried isn't in yet, you can monitor it in #642.
