Support for sensors with `state` keys
I have several sensors that show up fine on autodiscovery, but unfortunately the primary key used for the sensor is not in the list: https://github.com/pbkhrv/rtl_433-hass-addons/tree/main/rtl_433_mqtt_autodiscovery#what-sensorsdevices-does-this-script-support
My sensors look like this:
time = 2024-06-09 22:15:58
id = 309952
channel = 8
event = 128
state = open
contact_open = 1
reed_open = 0
alarm = 0
tamper = 0
battery_ok = 1
heartbeat = 0
mic = CRC
I'd like to request that the state
key is added to the supported list. Other keys that would be helpful are contact_open
, and reed_open
, but those are generally redundant of state
.
I'm not sure how to get these added, or what the best way to do this would be. I'm open to adding these manually as well, but I'm lacking a bit of understanding on how 'discovery' should work here. If I manually add mqtt sensors, do I not need to use autodiscovery (https://github.com/pbkhrv/rtl_433-hass-addons/tree/main/rtl_433_mqtt_autodiscovery#what-do-i-do-if-my-sensor-is-not-supported)?
Thanks for any help on this!
