esphome-pipsolar charger_source

Are there any plans to add support for changing charger_source_priority value as is the case with output_source_priority_solar?

I will love to see charger_source_priority dropdown as well thanks M.

I ll love too

syssi if you, you could tell me wich files are involve, i could try to butch the files using the inverter output priority select as a template and try with my inverter. thanks. M.

@hosflow I think you don't have this installed It should be a part of ESPHome by default for a while, maybe you have a very old version? Do sensors work, for example?

Everything works from pipsolar, it only stops working if you add this configuration, I don't know if I have to install another one, I'm new to esphome and what I used was a docker container that I uploaded less than 10 days ago, version 2024.2.1, I even tried run a clean build files, but it gives the error: Platform not found: 'select.pipsolar'. But if you remove that part everything works.

Do you use this repo? You'll need

external_components:
  - source: github://syssi/esphome-pipsolar

in your config Or specify a branch with "@" after

    Could not find components folder for source. Please check the source contains a 'components' or 'esphome/components' folder.
    source: github://syssi/esphome-pipsolar@main

I tried with @main and about 5 different branches and it didn't work, it gives the error above or others with options not found. I would like to take advantage of this and thank you for taking the time to try to help me. Thank you very much

Im trying use:

`external_components:

source: github://syssi/esphome-pipsolar@pip8048 refresh: 0s`

But at compiling i got error:

`INFO ESPHome 2024.3.0 INFO Reading configuration /config/test2.yaml...

just a bit of help, to have the syntax validated on the esphome dashboard, you shall tell which external component you retrieve on github apparently otherwise the editor will throw a lot of errors that are not real. @syssi : i noticed that only the 8048 branch has a folder components/pipsolar. is the 8048 intended to be the future main branch ?

external_components:

source: github://syssi/esphome-pipsolar@pip8048 components : pipsolar

thanks for this useful component.
