Config issues

Configuration

Hi there

Since upgrading to HA 88 I am getting the following two errors in the notification centre listed below.

Looking in my configuration.yaml file the two components its is referring to is Kodi and HA date and time. I am little confused why it us suddenly saying these are not supported. They are both still listed on the HA website under components.

Your configuration contains extra keys that the platform does not support. Please remove [host], [port], [api_key], [monitored_variables]. (See /config/configuration.yaml, line 70).

Can anyone help?

If these error warnings are pointing to a configuration that is specified on the HA component page then open an issue on github. There have been other issues with the config checker incorrectly identifying errors on correct configurations.

Thank for this! Was this issue introduced in 88. I’ve never had this error in the last year throughout multiple versions

With 0.88 they added the warning to help clean up peoples configs of extra unneeded options but it seems a little aggressive on what is / is not needed.

well it warns about every config that is not properly defined within the component. This can e.g. help a lot with finding typos, so I wouldn’t call it aggressive as it does what it should do.

It was a bug that incorrect options were just ignored previously… Tightening up the validation will solve a lot of config issues that may crop up in the future as well.
