Can this be used with MQTT thermostat? #15

Describe the bug

If I try to setup the awesome thermostat with an MQTT climate I get an error, since it does not accept the "platform" property. Is there a way to adapt it to an MQTT climate entity?

My thermostat gets it's temperature from an MQTT sensor with no issues. My temperature sensor is defined in configuration.yaml as: mqtt: sensor:

state_topic: LivingRoomSensor/AHT10/temperature unit_of_measurement: "°C" name: "LivingroomTemp"

and the thermostat as: climate:

platform: awesome_thermostat name: awesome heater: switch.thermo_relays_pin12 target_sensor: sensor.LivingRoomTemp eco_temp: 18.5 away_temp: 15 sleep_temp: 16

That's not a MQTT thermostat, but a generic thermostat that gets the temperature from a MQTT entity. That's not the same thing. Some thermostats are just exposed to HA like that, and I cannot change it.

OK, misunderstood your question then.

Can this be added? I have a Moes Zigbee thermostat and a Nest one. It would be awesome if we could use the existing climate entity, not just the temperature sensor. I think what he means is this integration would control the thermostat, not a separate relay in HA.
