Breaking change

Proposed change

Implement ping from frontend to backend to detect a broken websocket connection that doesn't trigger a disconnect event. Currently there is no mechanism to detect this and the frontend doesn't indicate that the shown values can be trusted.

Type of change

  • Dependency upgrade
  • Bugfix (non-breaking change which fixes an issue)
  • New feature (thank you!)
  • Breaking change (fix/feature causing existing functionality to break)
  • Code quality improvements to existing code or addition of tests

Should i create a seperate function for this? And can i rely on connect is just called once, otherwise i might end up with muliple pings being scheduled at the same time.

this.hass?.connection.reconnect(true);
});
}
setTimeout(pingBackend, 5000);

Should the interval be higher? In this case the function can probably just be scheduled with setInterval

To know if the interval should be higher we really need to test or know when the issue occurs...

My own experience with the bug is that a few minutes are enough to trigger

Have you understood the circumstances that let this happen? I have seen it occasionally but not commonly.

Have you understood the circumstances that let this happen? I have seen it occasionally but not commonly.

From my understanding the cause for this are bugs in the implementation of web sockets in browers. In the issue if have linked, i was able to reproduce this on an iPad, but people have also reported the same problem on other platforms. So there are probably multiple circumstances that can cause this.
Ideally this fix would not be needed, but the "reported" state of web sockets can't be relied upon. For me the biggest issue is that the front end doesn't show any indication of something being wrong and everything seems to be working, if you can't see the controlled device directly.

@bramkragten i can see you assigned the issue to yourself. Are there still some information/context you are missing that i can help with?

Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The changes in the src/state/connection-mixin.ts file focus on enhancing websocket connection management through the introduction of a promiseTimeout function and a private variable __backendPingInterval. These updates improve the handling of websocket pings and reconnections within the connectionMixin function's initializeHass method.

Changes

File Change Summary
src/state/connection-mixin.ts Added promiseTimeout for better websocket ping and reconnect functionality. Introduced private variable __backendPingInterval to manage the ping intervals.

Chat

There are 3 ways to chat with CodeRabbit:

  • Review comments: Directly reply to a review comment made by CodeRabbit. Example:
    • I pushed a fix in commit <commit_id>.
    • Generate unit testing code for this file.
    • Open a follow-up GitHub issue for this discussion.
  • Files and specific lines of code (under the "Files changed" tab): Tag @coderabbitai in a new review comment at the desired location with your query. Examples:
    • @coderabbitai generate unit testing code for this file.
    • @coderabbitai modularize this function.
  • PR comments: Tag @coderabbitai in a new PR comment to ask questions about the PR branch. For the best results, please provide a very specific query, as very limited context is provided in this mode. Examples:
    • @coderabbitai generate interesting stats about this repository and render them as a table.
    • @coderabbitai show all the console.log statements in this repository.
    • @coderabbitai read src/utils.ts and generate unit testing code.
    • @coderabbitai read the files in the src/scheduler package and generate a class diagram using mermaid and a README in the markdown format.
    • @coderabbitai help me debug CodeRabbit configuration file.

Note: Be mindful of the bot's finite context window. It's strongly recommended to break down tasks such as reading entire modules into smaller chunks. For a focused discussion, use review comments to chat about specific files and their changes, instead of using the PR comments.
