Solis - entity name changes after upgrading to 2024.8.12 #1016

Open funks81 opened 3 weeks ago

Describe the bug

I've managed to upgrade the integration to 2024.8.12 from a much older version 2024.5.7. Unfortunately a number of the entities seem to have been renamed in the latest version - mainly to do with charge/discharge times - leading to my automations no longer working. Examples include Timed Charge Start Hours - previously number.solisdirect_timed_charge_start_hours has become number.solisdirect_timed_charge_start_h

Couldn't see this mentioned anywhere - and wonder if they could be reverted to their old names to save rewriting a number of automations and dashboards. Many Thanks

The key needs updating to match the name. See https://github.com/wills106/homeassistant-solax-modbus/issues/949#issuecomment-2206445859 for details.

Thanks for this - just to clarify - I need to go into config/custom_components/solax_modbus/plugin_solis.py and manually change the keys to match the names for all the entities that I'm having issues with? Don't want to break everything as I don't really know what I'm doing!!!!

plugin_solis.py.zip Have been through and changed keys in plugin_solis.py to match names - have attached the file in case its useful to others. Seems to be working okay!!!

Thanks, I'll merge it into the branch and release it for others.

I had rewritten all of my automations and dashboards given the entity name changes mentioned here - specifically the timed charge hours/minutes input numbers. After updating to 2024.09.1 this evening, I see they have all changed back to their original entity names, so my edits will need to be reversed.
