Add connection online status sensor #114

Hi,

I am using the integration and works good! However I miss the functionality to check if my Zaptec is connected to the internet. Yesterday it went offline and I would like to create an automation to check for this, and send a notification to my phone.

thanks, Hans

The Zaptec integration have three entities named " Installation", " Circuit" and "* Charger". They have the state "Connected", "Not connected". They should give the status of the charger. Please check your history to check if they did change state when the charger was offline.

They all say it is connected sand charging. That’s incorrect since I removed power due to maintenance

There is a an attribute named "is online" that could be added as a entity in the integration. However, this integration relies on cloud poll so it can only reflect the data that Zaptec cloud provides. It does not communicate directly with the charger.

I have removed the AC power to my Zaptec Go, but I see no change in "is online" value after 15 minutes. Even Zaptec portal is reporting charger to be online. I'll keep the test running to see how long time it takes until the cloud detects that the charger is offline.

@Ghannes Does Online Details show your charger offline for the period which the charger was offline? Go to https://portal.zaptec.com -> Chargers -> Select your charger -> Status -> Online? -> Details

EDIT: It updated the online status after 25 minutes.

It seems HACS have removed the option of downloading "master", so I've created a beta/pre-release "0.7.2b1" available for download and test.
