Integrate into mainline Home-Assistant

[GregoryDosh]

I had originally just created this for personal use because the amount of time/effort to get it put into the official repo was something I didn't have time for. With more people showing an interest in keeping it running it would be a good idea to just have it be part of the platform natively.

Just leaving this here as a brainstorm/dump on potentially getting this into mainline Home Assistant so that a broader community of contributors might support it.

Any thoughts on working together to get this ready @J3n50m4t? BTW, thanks again for taking over the maintenance of this repo. Without my Dreamscreen here locally it's been tough to do anything (and lack of time doesn't help either)

I'm always open to more supporters. I'm not a python dev and its sometimes a bit hard to understand, so any help is appreciated.

before considering adding this as a mainline component I would like to resolve:

• Add missing devices (solo had payload message 7 and we only handle up to 3)
• Add discovery in Homeassistant ( HA moves to only ui configuration, so we should consider this also)
• Support groups #6

You can also add it to the Home Assistant Community Store to start with. This is an integration that helps installing custom components and plugins, a lot of users seem to use it. Adding the Dreamscreen service shouldn't be that hard and it makes installing and updating it super easy. See here.

I added a hacs.json. Users now can add Dreamscreen via hacs custom repos.

I will target the default repo, but I want to read everything before applying there. For now it works for me and updating is super easy. Would definitly recommend to everyone

We made a hard breaking change going straight into Hacs folder structures.
HACS now is the way to integrate it. TODO: Add Hasso releases, so changelog is more useful in Hacs
