Support for hiding the search_result entity #23

Open marefr opened 4 months ago

marefr commented 4 months ago

The search_result entity shows up in the default dashboard and I don't have any use of this so wanted to hide it as I've done with other entities:

However, there's no way to hide this entity as far as I know since the "entity id is not unique":

I've tried to clear the cache, but that doesn't remove the entity.

I have never used the default dashboard (and frankly, I did not know anyone actually did as it contains WAY to many entries in a total chaos to be even remotely useful for me).

But to do this, I guess the search_result must be replaced by a sensor-entry, which both requires a rewrite of a lot of internal structures and functions, as well as a lot of updates to the other components, such as the plant integration.

Not that that is a bad thing, it is just not something I am going to prioritize. If anyone feel up for it, I will gladly accept PRs - but it must be coordinated with the plan-integration.
