post 0.36: ISS, USPS, Image processing, Insteon Track packages, space stations, TrackR devices, Xiaomi, and UPC connect boxes 2017-01-14 08:04:05 +0000 January 15, 2017 Fabian Affolter fabaff true Release-Notes /images/blog/2016-01-0.36/social.png

Welcome to 2017 and 0.36. We are proud to announce the first release for this year. While we are still migrating parts to async but 0.36 is focusing on new features and a lot of bug fixes.

{% linkable_title Packages %}

Packages are providing a new way to organize different component's configuration parts together. With packages we offer the option to include different components or parts of configuration using any of the !include directives.

{% linkable_title InfluxDB export %}

The InfluxDB component was causing problems in a wide variety of use cases. @titilambert improved our InfluxDB exporter feature. It might be that you need to run the migration script to update your InfluxDB database.

$ hass --script influxdb_migrator \
    -H IP_INFLUXDB_HOST -u INFLUXDB_USERNAME -p INFLUXDB_PASSWORD \
    -d INFLUXDB_DB_NAME

{% linkable_title International Space Station (ISS) %}

No, unfortunately we are not going to space. The iss sensor is tracking the position of the International Space Station and gives you some details.

{% linkable_title Insteon local %}

The support for Insteon was removed due to issues a while ago. With the insteon_local component support for Insteon is back and let one work locally with an Insteon setup.

{% linkable_title Image processing %}

The new image processing component currently works with number plates. But this could level the way to integrate feature like facial recognition, motion detection, or gestures control.

{% linkable_title All changes %}

{% linkable_title Release 0.36.1 - January 17 %}

{% linkable_title Breaking changes %}

  • APNS service was moved to the notify domain. Use notify.apns_NOTIFIER_NAME instead of apns.NOTIFIER_NAME.
  • InfluxDB component has a new schema to store values in the InfluxDB database. You may require to run the influxdb_migrator script. You have to note:
    • There will not be any tags/fields named time anymore.
    • All numeric fields (int/float/bool) will be stored as float inside influx db.
    • All string fields corresponding to state attributes will be renamed as FIELDNAME_str, where FIELDNAME is the state attribute, to avoid type conflicts.
    • All string fields corresponding to a state will be renamed as state (former value).
    • Fields named value will always be stored as float.
    • Fields named state will always be stored as string.
  • TTS cache files use now the language abbreviation as part of the name. If you want to use the cache, it need to be renamed or cleared, new created. E. g. HASH_PLATFORM.xxx -> HASH_LANG_PLATFORM.xxx.
