Description

Currently I am using a ser2net interface towards dsmr reader, which publishes the values with mqtt towards home assistant. I would like to improve my setup by introducing an esphome P1 reader that process the telegrams and publishes the values via mqtt towards the mqtt broker. Both home assistant and dsmr-reader can then subscribe to the mqtt topic Is this a feature that is possible to look into? I would like to keep dmsrreader for the long term statistics but remove it out of my energy control loop of home assistant

I would suggest to try using ser2net to have multiple appications use it concurrently. Or writing something that can use the DMSR-reader API as alternative.

Other input sources would take way too much effort to implement and maintain as well. MQTT input might be one way, but many other methods have been requested as well. Adding one method, would cause other methods to be supported as well. As each one has it's pro's/cons, etc...
