muppet3000 commented 1 year ago

Hi @Saentist - I haven't got around to enabling discussions yet. I'll do it in the future. We/I have no say over the icons that are available in Home Assistant, especially on a per-integration basis. Sorry.

I just wondering is it possible to make some update of code in https://github.com/muppet3000/homeassistant-growatt_server_api/blob/main/custom_components/growatt_server_api/sensor_types/storage.py similar to this https://github.com/lluiscab/MPQTT/blob/master/src/mqtt_discovery.rs

where

    register_sensor(client, cfg, "qpiri", "grid_rating_voltage", "Grid Rating Voltage", Some("V".to_string()), "power-plug").await?;

power-plug is mdi:power-plug etc.

I'll take a look when I next go near the sensor code, thank you for the snippet. Since this is just a cosmetic change it will be lower priority to implement vs bug fixes and missing functionality.

Given the fact that the Growatt API is increasingly unreliable (see #15) I have slowly winding down support for this repo and instead directing people towards trying Grott instead: https://github.com/muppet3000/homeassistant-grott

I'm happy to help people out migrating over to the new method, it's far more reliable and I'm focussing all my efforts into making it the best possible option for everyone (including feeding back changes to the main developer)
