0.4 (2023-06-22)

Features:

  • Now supporting sensors, binary_sensors, switches and camera entities
  • Devices are now retained

Breaking Changes when upgrading from Version 0.3

With version 0.3 AstroLive did only use Home Assistant sensors and camera entities. This simplified the initial implementations but using a sensor might not always be the appropriate entity type. An on/off switch in the Pegasus UPB2 should either be represented as a binary_sensor or even better as an actual switch.

For this reason some of the entities in your Home Assistant will automatically change from sensor to switch or binary_sensor when using AstroLive 0.4+. This likely results in missing entities in your Lovelace configuration or automations which should easily be fixed by changing the type there as well.
