Custom Integration: Gaming Status

I posted this here before, but I have made a LOT of changes to make this easier for end users to install and use. This allows you to track gaming status across multiple platforms (Xbox, Steam, PlayStation, and custom PC sensors) and combines them into ONE status per user. For example, if you have family or friends that play on multiple platforms, you can gave one master sensor that shows whether or not they're online, which platform they're playing on, and which game.

The features are too long to list, but if you're a gamer and you use Home Assistant for any type of status tracking, it's definitely worth checking out!

Additionally, I have also released a companion set of dashboard cards, which I HIGHLY recommend installing with it. These will also give you an idea of what the integration can do for you.

If you try it out, I'd love to hear about what you think, what features it might be missing, or any issues you run into.

I released v1.8.5 which adds a few new features, including:

  • NEW! Added notifications to the configurator, allowing you to receive online/offline notifications for whichever configured profiles you choose through Discord, SMS, or Mobile
  • NEW! Added a selector for adding profiles that automatically filters Steam, Xbox, and PlayStation users
  • NEW! Added a weekly game summary notification option
  • Overall streamlining of the configurator

Version 2.0 is out now, with fully-integrated Home Assistant UI setup!

Parental controls have also been added along with a number of other quality-of-life improvements.
