For friendly names that consider description

[pepp86]

What happened?

Name of the device in iobroker doesn't show up, neither the zigbee ID nor the description set in z2m

What did you expect to happen?

Device description set in z2m should be the device name in iobroker

How to reproduce it (minimal and precise)

No response

Adapter version

2.5.0

Log

No response

Can you please provide some more information and maybe some screenshots?

Name should show up here:
ioB

Z2M

Description seems not to be included.

Regards,
André

Yep, was expecting the name to show up there, but as you see - nothing. Changed logging to silly now, no errors or any messages regarding names/description.

I know the phenomenon, with me here actually always a restart of the adapter was enough, once also the Z2M itself. Have you ever done that?

[pepp86]

Yep, in all possible scenarios. Seems that this adapter is not reading any values from z2m.

[nox309]

but basically the communication of the adapter works, so if you change something in the ioB then that is also taken active?

If all this works or especially if it does not work, please pull once the current version of git. The version number has not changed, but there are already div. Changes incorporated.

[pepp86]

Yep, communication works. It's for now only missing the description/name of the device.

[nox309]

okay then please pull the current version from Git

[pepp86]

No change - still missing names.

[o0shojo0o]

What are your names, for example?

[pepp86]

nothing special. Is there any chance to get a debug logging of the adapter to see what happens? From what I see, there is not. Enable silly logging, but only see the iobroker own messages (redis etc.)

[pepp86]

To add, I've tested also a device without blanks in the description. Deleted all states and restarted. Nothing.

[pepp86]

I get the following log now, when changing a description in z2m:

2023-01-06 12:59:31.666 - debug: zigbee2mqtt.0 (240481) Device: bridge/response/device/options not found, queue state in incStatsQueue! 2023-01-06 12:59:40.821 - debug: zigbee2mqtt.0 (240481) Device: bridge/response/device/options not found, queue state in incStatsQueue! 2023-01-06 12:59:41.587 - debug: zigbee2mqtt.0 (240481) Device: 901 not found, queue state in incStatsQueue! 2023-01-06 12:59:41.587 - debug: zigbee2mqtt.0 (240481) Device: bridge/response/device/options not found, queue state in incStatsQueue! 2023-01-06 12:59:41.587 - debug: zigbee2mqtt.0 (240481) Device: bridge/response/device/options not found, queue state in incStatsQueue!

You have entered the names in the wrong place!

[pepp86]

Yes/No - depends on the point of view. My friendly name always stays with the unique id of the device. Koenkk added the description for that purpose.

[pepp86]

Here is the PR which implemented it in z2m
Koenkk/zigbee2mqtt#11493

Now, that we at least found the cause of the issue, are you able to look into the description field and use it, if there is a value?

[o0shojo0o]

Ok let's say it differently, for the adapter it is currently the wrong place.
Since I do not have the description as easy to access as I would need it was chosen this way, whether that still changes or is supplemented I have to look at time times.

I make but first this issues to, since that will have solved.

Create for the description please a new issues .

[o0shojo0o]

I have looked at that, I think I can implement quite easily I test that right away :)

[o0shojo0o]

Please test the dev branch: https://github.com/o0shojo0o/ioBroker.zigbee2mqtt/tree/dev_%23105

[pepp86]

Works fine for me. Initial load uses description and updated names also get changed.
