If you have it working, can you post your directory structure? Because you’re suggesting it should be /config/iaqualink/iaqualink/const.py which doesn’t sound like that would work (and doesn’t when I tested it).
To add a custom component, you need to do a lot more than drop random config files into your directory. You also need to add the integration to your config.yaml, but there is no documentation on this custom integration because it’s deprecated in favor of the official HA one.
You are correct. I just updated my post with the correct files. You need to copy the files from /src/iaqualink/* to /config/iaqualink/* for this to work. Not just the const.py file. I had originally stated the files fro src to iaqualink and missed the subfolder in github. Can you try again to see if this works for you also or if it was a fluke for me? Nothing needs to be done in config.yaml as these files override original component which is already enabled. Just need to be sure to call it the same thing “iaqualink”.
Works for me I used dannyh’s example and put the files in /config/iaqualink and rebooted then readded the integration because I deleted it put in my username/pass and its up and running.
For us noobs that won’t manual update the config. When will the UI version be available/updated?
Most likely today.

Thank you Flauran.
2021.6.2 fixed it for me.
You sir, are a gentleman and a scholar. Thanks for the very fast, efficient work on this.
Thank You! Thank You! Way to quickly get this turned around! I am back working again. BTW, where is the proper place enhancement requests? I would like to get my Heat Pump working (different than a gas heater)
The upstream repository is the best place for that. I won’t personally invest time in it given the API is private (and needs reverse engineering) and I don’t have access to the equipment. There’s always a chance somebody else will though!
I am getting the following error:

Does anyone have a solution?
Thanks

Do you have some sample code for this? Would be great not having to use polling for this like I am doing right now.
Hey, got a chance to looki at this again.
If you send me the format of the output you’re getting, I might be able to put up a test version of the library for you to use.
I think /config/conf/aqualink.json and what you’re getting from the last curl command (setting the swc to on/off) would help to start with.
I started cobbling something together but abandoned it after I realised I could achieve the same result and not deviate the existing iAqualink library too much…
I’ve pushed where I left it back to GitHub for you if you’re interested…
This is the response I get when I turn on/off the chlorinator:

Thanks for putting the code up!
I’m going to leave the AWS stuff aside for now but will use the rest of the changes as inspiration.
Pleasure. Here’s my mods to support eXO chlorinators without the AWS library.
I haven’t used it in anger yet (waiting for Australian summer) but it seems to run okay in dev.
Hi there,
Do you plan to get your changes merged into iaqualink-py? I only recently realized my Zodiac hydroxinator has inbuilt iAquaLink and got it configured this week but was bummed that the integration in hass doesn’t support it. Wondering how much to hack at stuff to get it working for me, over just waiting for it to get merged.
Also excitedly waiting for our Aussie summer - first full one with the pool!
Cheers,
Whytey
Loose plans…
I haven’t tinkered in a while but it seems to be functioning okay. A few minor issues yet to be ironed out, mainly around commands being lost when a refresh is pending.
If you want to have a play, take a copy of the component from here and place it in your custom_components directory. That’s how I’ve currently got it installed anyway…
-Martin
Thanks heaps. I currently have it up and running though needed to hack a couple of things:
I don’t have a good environment for playing with this, so I am falling back to making edits directly in GitHub and running them in prod 
I have some output in the shadow response that indicates it utilising MQTT onboard - wouldn’t it be nice to just play with that locally instead 
Thanks again - hopefully I get to play more and report back
