Custom Component Maintenance - Abandoned #83

Open IIAIronWolf opened 1 month ago

IIAIronWolf commented 1 month ago

It appears this custom component has been abandoned. Apologies if this is incorrect of me, but I noticed there are 8 contributors. Are any of you willing to take over or know of an alternative solution to the real-time NWS alerts this provided? @jlverhagen @ludeeus @wrt54g @fortepc @ntilley905 @Vulp35 @tomhoover @ikifar2012

It looks like pynws, which is the package the main HA NWS component uses, has an alerts functionality. I'll try to carve out some time to see if it could be integrated into the main forecast integration.

That would be awesome!! This integration has been an integral part of my tornado alerting automations. There are many tornados where I live and you can barely hear the sirens, if at all, in my home.

Hey hey. I loved the way this integration was setup. I love the 5 alert sensors and everything how this works. I haven't seen many changes made to it, and I was getting tons of errors in my logs. I forked all the code here and fixed everything. I added new features which adds async modes, it adds much more performance to scanning the alerts. I fixed all the errors that the template sensors were getting. I cleaned up all the code and pretty much tried my best to optimize everything. I've been working on this every day for the past 2 weeks or so and tonight, I just finally got all the errors removed. I've made so many changes to this that I forget everything I've done lol. I use it for my tornado alerting and severe storm alerting automations too! You can feel free to use my code. I am actively working on it though every day so you may get quite a lot of updates. Works great so far though.
