Hi.
I’m trying to create a custom integration and I was trying out some examples.
config
├── custom_components
│ └── ezplug
│ ├── __init__.py
│ ├── manifest.json
│ └── switch.py
__init__.py file:
import logging
DOMAIN = "ezplug"
_LOGGER = logging.getLogger(__name__)
def setup(hass, config):
hass.states.set("ezplug.integration", "Ready")
_LOGGER.info("EZPLUG Ready!")
# Return boolean to indicate that initialization was successful.
return True
switch.py file:
from homeassistant.components.switch import SwitchEntity
import logging
_LOGGER = logging.getLogger(__name__)
class MySwitch(SwitchEntity):
def __init__(self):
self._is_on = False
@property
def name(self):
"""Name of the entity."""
return "My Switch"
@property
def is_on(self):
"""If the switch is currently on or off."""
return self._is_on
def turn_on(self, **kwargs):
"""Turn the switch on."""
self._is_on = True
def turn_off(self, **kwargs):
"""Turn the switch off."""
self._is_on = False
def setup_platform(hass, config, add_devices, discovery_info=None):
_LOGGER.info("Setting up virtual switch")
add_devices([MySwitch()])
return True
M\y configuration.yaml:
ezplug:
platform: switch
Apparently this is supposed to create a “fake” switch in Home Assistant, but the only entity it creates is ezplug.integration. There is no “My Switch” or anything like that.
I’ve seen that in a lot of examples setup_platform is defined before the custom class (in this case MySwitch), but I don’t think it matters. In fact, isn’t it better if the custom class is defined before it’s used?
I can see “EZPLUG Ready!” in the logs, but not “Setting up virtual switch”, so the switch.py script is never even executed.
Am I forgetting something or what’s the problem?
