Custom component Afvalbeheer - Support for multiple waste collectors

You should check again now. Ophaalkalender.be was slow in populating all the information, so the custom component only showed unknown states because of that.

Nope, still the unknown states…
I don’t think there is a problem with the custom component, I think it’s an issue with ophaalkalender.be.

If the site doesn’t give the information then the sensor won’t work either…

Will look into this. I don’t think ROVA is working at all at the moment…

Hi Pippyn,

do you have any update on this?

Does https://inzamelkalender.rova.nl/ work for your address? If so; can you dm me your address (or an address that works)?

Hello pippyn,

First thx for your work!!
But is it possible to edit de name of entities?
For the moment it’s like that:
ophaalkalender restafval
How to edit the name and the icon (replace recycling)?

Sure, look at name and name prefix on my github page.

If that is not enough you can also customize the sensors like any other entity in Home Assistant:

Thx, my mistake was bad syntax for the sensors…

By the way it’s just perfect now!!!

hello pippyn,

i life in the rova service area.
If i can help you out please let me know for testing

ROVA closed the rest api, I’m sad to say. For now you can use the official HA ROVA component which uses a different API.

Does anyone have an example of lovelace code for mijnafvalwijzer.nl that still works in the recent HA versions with HACS available plugins?

gives us your efforts at it, and we can see how to hulp? btw, you should hop over to the correct thread for mijnafvalwijzer maybe.

Hi, looks like limburg.net does have an API. I found a parser here. Can you use this?
https://github.com/sgilissen/Limburg.net-Parser/blob/9960c9cd13ae9f9ddf1069118cf6ac29e1daf937/limburgnetparser.py

No sorry. It’s a differt API than what this sensor uses.

Thanks Pippyn for this add-on. Just installed it, waste and gft is working fine but paper and pmd are not. I only get unknown. Berkelland, 7161XB, 37. Maybe I’m doing something wrong.

Hey Nick,

Have a look at how the waste collector in your area calls the fractions.
PMD: They collect “Plastic, blik en drankenkartons” so the resource should PBD
Paper: They call it “Muziekvereniging Crescendo” (and likewise) so I’ll need to write a fix to account for the changing titles, I think.

Could you check the following fix for me?
Change line 282 in custom_components>afvalbeheer>sensor.py from:

check_title = key['menu_title']

To:

check_title = ""

and restart your HA system. (You’ll need to have “Papier” added as a resource of course)

Thanks Pippyn. Paper is working now.

Hello Pippyn

I really like this component for HA, however it does not support (yet?) the waste collector “Area-Afval” link: https://www.area-afval.nl/voor-bewoners/afvalkalender/digitale-afvalkalender. Is it possible to add this waste collector for my address: 7761GJ-46? Thanks in advance.
