adjust to use value_template for sensors #18

Open vanhoof opened 5 months ago

While deploying this I found that all eight senors that leverage /value + json Numerics via Genmon were not being processed by HA. All of the other sensors were working just fine.

Out of curiosity I decided to use a value_template for each of these, and they all began working without any problems!

I'm a new HA user, running on a fully up2date installation, I'm not sure if something changed in the architecture from when this generator.yaml was released vs what is supported now options wise, but I thought I would at least share my changes in the event they're useful for you or others.

If any other info is needed (logs, screenshots, etc) just let me know! Thank you for helping me get my generator plugged into HA
