Additional information

Not sure if this is helpful… I do not have a physical rain delay sensor, but the logs do mention one. Also, I have one unused zone named switch.unused_sprinkler_zone.

@sweenr Yup, that’ll be the only thing, we will have to wait and see if the developer updates the component to fix this. If they do, we would have to delete the custom component to load the developers version, if the error persists we would need to follow these steps again and edit custom_components/rainbird/__init__.py again.

For future reference, I’m on Hassio 0.110.2, the instructions were as follows (thanks @sweenr , copied your text where applicable):

  1. Access Hassio Host --> https://developers.home-assistant.io/docs/operating-system/debugging/#ssh-access-to-the-host then type login

  2. Access the container bash --> https://developers.home-assistant.io/docs/operating-system/debugging/#accessing-the-container-bash

  3. Copy your rainbird directory to custom_components (create the custom_components directory next to your configuration.yaml if you don’t already have one). For me, the command was: cp -r /usr/src/homeassistant/components/rainbird /config/custom_components/

  4. Comment out the lines in your custom_components/rainbird/__init__.py as above, currently lines 31 & 32.

  5. Restart HA and warnings should be gone!

Im going to try modifying https://github.com/konikvranik/pyrainbird to set logging to error instead of debug and copying it to my hassio instance, although I have no clue if that will work. Will let you know. I have seen the code author has been active in other issues, hope he responds soon. On Apr 23, 2020, 11:05 AM -0500, mikesalz notifications@github.com, wrote:

I am also getting this error/warning. @papacrown Thanks for chiming in. I’m glad to hear this issue is not isolated to only me. Unfortunately, the developer has not responded. I wonder if there is another way to get more traction on issues? — You are receiving this because you were mentioned. Reply to this email directly, view it on GitHub, or unsubscribe.
