Originally posted by **zachowj** September 22, 2024 I would like to propose a feature that allows users to define a custom MQTT topic for publishing raw usage data from Xfinity. This can be achieved by using an environment variable, such as MQTT_RAW_USAGE_TOPIC. The desired functionality would enable the raw usage data to be published to the specified MQTT topic without any modifications. Currently, I have implemented a workaround in a cloned repository, but it is not clean. I utilize historical data in Home Assistant, which I then process through Node-RED to create sensors that output daily usage and remaining time for the month. Thank you for considering this enhancement!
