Convert away from default_config

Configuration

Thanks for sharing your config. I’ve been looking for this as a config example and wondering why it doesn’t exist in the default_config documentation.

I’ve updated the list to include additional components added to default_config since your post.

# Skip default_config meta-component in favor of individual integrations

Thanks for the spoon-fed info. Looks like there are some changes since 2022.2, so as of 2022.6 I had to use this (removed update, added backup):

You may want to add diagnostics

24

I don’t see any mention to “diagnostics” in the default_config documentation…

25

Is your diagnostics working without adding it?

26

Yes, it is!
Looks like it’s built-in, and you cannot disable it

27

When it first appeared in HA I had to add it to get it working. Guess they made changes to default it built in then. Thanks

Here’s the list updated for 2022.12.8

Remove backup for Home Assistant Operating System or Home Assistant Supervised as it’s built-in.

What advantages are there by removing all the config components that you dont use???

Faster or just a case of not detecting spurious devices?

I remember getting rid of buttons etc I don’t use, like the media thing.

I made a custom component, that makes managing it simpler.
