Compiling sample yaml gives traceback error in ESPHome

[henkvdt]

When I try to compile firmware using the sample yaml file in the repository I get the following error:

Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/local/bin/esphome", line 33, in <module> sys.exit(load_entry_point('esphome', 'console_scripts', 'esphome')()) File "/esphome/esphome/__main__.py", line 960, in main return run_esphome(sys.argv) File "/esphome/esphome/__main__.py", line 947, in run_esphome rc = POST_CONFIG_ACTIONS[args.command](args, config) File "/esphome/esphome/__main__.py", line 355, in command_compile exit_code = write_cpp(config) File "/esphome/esphome/__main__.py", line 176, in write_cpp generate_cpp_contents(config) File "/esphome/esphome/__main__.py", line 188, in generate_cpp_contents CORE.flush_tasks() File "/esphome/esphome/core/__init__.py", line 616, in flush_tasks self.event_loop.flush_tasks() File "/esphome/esphome/coroutine.py", line 246, in flush_tasks next(task.iterator) File "/esphome/esphome/core/config.py", line 317, in _add_platformio_options cg.add_platformio_option(key, val) File "/esphome/esphome/cpp_generator.py", line 621, in add_platformio_option CORE.add_platformio_option(key, value) File "/esphome/esphome/core/__init__.py", line 710, in add_platformio_option assert isinstance(value, list) AssertionError

ESPHome version: v2022.12.1

Any idea on how to fix this?

Did you ever manage to fix this? I am having the same issue

[henkvdt]

Fixed it using the configuration from this site: https://homeassistantbrasil.com.br/t/flashing-xiaomi-ir-com-esphome/7174

Hey, sorry I had some time today to go through the issues and get this compiling again. Thanks for your patience.

[calania]

Thanks! I At first I however had problems compiling. When I downloaded the new files I got the following error.

`Failed config

esphome: None name: xiaomi-ir

[friendly_name] is an invalid option for [esphome]. Please check the indentation. friendly_name: Xiaomi-IR platformio_options: extra_scripts:

• pre:pre_extra_script.py platform_packages:
• |- framework-arduinoespressif32 @ https://github.com/pauln/arduino-esp32.git#solo-no-mac-crc/1.0.6 platform:
• espressif32 build_path: .esphome/build/xiaomi-ir `

After removing all references to friendly_name and replacing it with them with Xiaomi-IR it fixed it for me and is now compiling

[calania]

I uploaded the code now and the only moddifications I made except for the removing the friendly name was add this part last to my code

`climate:

• platform: heatpumpir # adjust to match your AC unit! name: "Panasonic" protocol: panasonic_ckp horizontal_default: auto vertical_default: down max_temperature: 30 min_temperature: 16`

Looking at the web portal (ip:80) it seems like the receiver is always turned on and my board does get hot. I thought the board getting hot issue had been fixed?

Try remote_transmitter: ** inverted: True

then test your IR commands

[calania]

Awesome! Got it working perfectly now after inverting the led.

Sorry, was my leftover when testing the new code. I'm going to close the issue and I'll try to test the code every new major version of ESPHome/HA.
