Life360 component and 89.1

Configuration
1

Just reading the release notes on 89.1 and I noticed the custom component path change. I don’t understand enough of the back end of the project to know this answer for sure - I use the Life360 custom component, has anyone had any experience with this component with 89.1, will it still work?

Thanks
Rob

I’m not on my main pc at home, but if I remember correctly, you have to create a life360 folder and then put the device_tracker.py file in there under the custom_components folder for it to work.

custom_components\life360\device_tracker.py.

Someone please correct me if I’m wrong.

I currently have it as custom_components/device_tracker/life360.py which is probably what you meant since you’re not in front of your setup - just double checking

I just remoted into my machine and I currently have it working as:

custom_components\life360\device_tracker.py

I think the way you have it set up is the old way.

Ahh. Thank you VERY much. I think that’s the change I need. I’ll try it later and report back here.

Thanks @omerome for pointing out the install instructions.

@RobFromLI, et al,

I posted these instructions as a summary for dealing with the new layout.
