Errors compiling Home_Assistant.ino

I'm compiling Home_Assistant.ino on ESP8266 (tried different board compilers, nothing changes) and I'm getting this error:

'HA_Attributes_t' does not name a type

I tried to use older version of board compiler (e.g. 2.7.4, 2.6.3).

[metriful]

Hi,

The error probably means the compiler can't find the definition of "HA_Attributes_t", which is in file Metriful_sensor.h

Try these 2 things:

1. check that this line is still present at the top of the home_assistant sketch (did you remove it?):

#include <Metriful_sensor.h>

2. Check that you have copied the folder called "Metriful_Sensor" into your computer's Arduino library folder:

Download and unzip the Sensor repository. From this, copy the folder Metriful_Sensor (located inside the repository Arduino folder) into your computer's Arduino libraries folder (probably \Documents\Arduino\libraries)

Found it, made a mistake importing the libraries, sorry.

Now it compiles, upload, it's not creating a wifi AP but I can't see it connected to my network. Can't see in DHCP lease and it isn't connecting to Home Assistant. Again, I'm trying to change board compiler from generic to NodeMCU ESP-12E but it isn't working.

After some checks seems the board is broken.
