Modbus Integration #119

Closed x4N70pHyLL closed 3 months ago

x4N70pHyLL commented 3 months ago

Hello, can we also have Modbus integration here?

There are several threads in the german Alpha ESS Forum describing how it is integrated in IOBroker and there is specifically a script for polling the Modbus TCP data.

As it has same/similar data points (obviously) it would be logical for me to integrate it here.

BTW: Any plans to make this integration "official" to Home Assistant Core?

I don’t have any modbus hardware so there’s no way for me to maintain a modbus integration. Very happy for anyone else to propose code to pull if you want to maintain it.

The integration is waiting for inclusion in the default HACS repos - that’s where I’m looking at currently for distribution.
