Description

Hi there,

I have just re-paired all my zigbee devices via Z2M using a sonoff controller as they failed recently.
However, now that it almost all works, the double press doesn't.

I've been able to trace this back to a mismatch in the regex used in the calculation of the trigger_delta and the value stored in the last_action helper fields.

The regex currently is as follows: Line 389

^\{((\"a\": \".*\"|\"t\": \d+\.\d+)(, )?){2}\}$
while the helper field doesn' t contain whitespace:
{"a":"off_press_release","t":1699726460.746302}

A matching regex (for me) is as follows:
^\{((\"a\": \".*\"|\"t\":\d+\.\d+)(,)?){2}\}$
This regex removes the whitespace after the semicolon in the t part as well as after the separating comma in the center.

Automation YAML config

For use in Home Assistant's Developer tools:

{%set helper_last_controller_event = 'input_text.last_hue_dimmer_switch_action' %}

{{states(helper_last_controller_event) | regex_match("^\{((\"a\": \".*\"|\"t\": \d+\.\d+)(, )?){2}\}$")}}
{{states(helper_last_controller_event) | regex_match("^\{((\"a\":\".*\"|\"t\":\d+\.\d+)(,)?){2}\}$")}}

To Reproduce

For use in Home Assistant's Developer tools:

{%set helper_last_controller_event = 'input_text.last_hue_dimmer_switch_action' %} <- change the input to match yours.

{{states(helper_last_controller_event) | regex_match("^\{((\"a\": \".*\"|\"t\": \d+\.\d+)(, )?){2}\}$")}} <- old regex
{{states(helper_last_controller_event) | regex_match("^\{((\"a\":\".*\"|\"t\":\d+\.\d+)(,)?){2}\}$")}} <- new regex

Expected behavior

The hue switch to emulate a double press event.

Actual Behaviour

Not triggering the double press path due to a mismatching Regex.

Life saver! Had just been trying to solve this issue. I isolated it down to the delta variable and then found your open issue here.

If you use deconz, then you have no double quoted value for the "a"-key.
a":2002,"t":1702413771.806498

So the right one is:
regex_match("^\{((\"a\":[\"]?.*[\"]?|\"t\":\d+\.\d+)(,)?){2}\}$")

Or better:
regex_match("^\{((\"a\":(\".*\"|\d+)|\"t\":\d+\.\d+)(,)?){2}\}$")

Seems exactly the same issue with IKEA E2001.
