Door sensors and water valves..

[atv2016]

Will battery powered door sensors be supported any time soon?

what about smart water valves? I can help with testing if needed.

After having some pretty good success with a heap of lights and switches I have just picked up 4 x battery powered door sensors, but am getting this error (is this the problem you are asking about?):

This error originated from a custom integration.

For the water valve i've use Localtuya on this forked project: https://github.com/leeyuentuen/localtuya

For the battery device like the door sensor, it is not possible at the moment to use them in Localtuya (if it used the wifi version). On the door opens, it will just send very quick a signal (MQTT message) to the tuya server. Unless we pick up the message and reroute it to our own server, then we can reproduce the MQTT message

on the ZigBee version, it should work on that same forked project.
