We need your help on testing!

I wouldn’t start introducing columns - we should simply state what works on the latest version (and since there are no bigger technical changes planned, we should simply assume that what works now on beta will also continue to work in future). If there are entries in the list, which we now know that they do NOT work with beta2/snapshot, simply put them to the incompatible list with a reference to the issue.

Ok it is just that I have a real doubt that every binding listed as working is really working now.

Could you add an easy access to this page ? I was not able to find the path to it from the documentation main page.

Feel free to make a suggestion/PR about where it should be added best.

JUst a quick word to confirm that Netatmo binding is working well in OH 2 beta 2.

A new comment to say that I tested most of my rules and they are working well in OH 2.
The only problems I noticed are during OH 2 startup. I opened a new topic to discuss about that issue with variable initialization.

Just tranfered my config to the latest 2.0 beta and happy to confirm that following 1.9 bindings are working for me:

  • Serial
  • TCP
  • IRTrans

I can confirm that the neohub binding is working as well in openhab2. The latest fix setting immediate=“true” fixed it.

@luotaus @sprehn I just submitted a PR to update the compatible/incompatible list of add-ons in OH2, considering your feedbacks.

OH 1.x mapdb persistence seems to be working fine with openhab2 could also transfer persistence data from OH1

Thanks, will be added with the next build: https://github.com/openhab/openhab/pull/4144

All, especially dear @maintainer,

I have a suggestion for improving the integration of 1.x binding in OH2. Have a look at https://github.com/openhab/openhab/pull/4268 - I think this should be done for all bindings that we include in the distro and if you think the same, it would be great if you could help getting such meta-data into the bindings.

The content of the XML file is described here and the new IDE directly comes with the XML schema support in the XML editor, so that you even have content assist there.

Hope you like it!

@Kai, is there a list of bindings which still need to be done? If not, maybe we could open issues for each to track?

I’am not a programmer. Don’t know what to do. Whats about the plex-binding. 1.9.0. Running smoothly with OH2. There are only 3 parameter to be set.

IP address of the Plex server
host=IPofPlexServer

Optional, port that the Plex server is running on. Default = 32400
port=32400

Refresh interval in ms. Default = 5000.
refresh=1000

Afaik, it isn’t done for any other 1.x binding yet; we are maintaining a list of 1.x bindings that are included in the new distro here: https://github.com/openhab/openhab-distro/blob/master/docs/sources/addons.md#compatible-1x-add-ons
Maybe we can add a column like “UI Config” to it to keep track of this?

Does it require only a new binding compilation or does it require a new OH2 distro too ?
I plan to add this file for the Powermax binding.

It only needs to be added to the binding and will directly work on any current OH2 distro build.

I think we could have one table listing all existing 1.x add-ons with a column saying if compatible or not with OH2 and another column saying if binding is packaged in OH2 distro. And as you suggest another column for UI config.
And a last line showing percentages.
I can try to do it if you like

Isn’t https://github.com/openhab/openhab-distro/blob/master/docs/sources/addons.md#compatible-1x-add-ons already providing all that is needed (and only needs the additional UI column)?

Not exactly… My idea is to have in this page a full list of 1.x add-ons and a clear idea of what add-ons are included in the OH2 distro.
I will submit a change for what I am thinking.

TCP binding not working with oh2. Can make it work after aystem has started by making a change to anything in tcp.cfg. logs are at:
