Question about "sensor" with HACS 2.0

Configuration
1

I’ve been doing some updates and the latest HACS (which I haven’t updated in a while) states the “sensor platform” has been removed. In my configuration.yaml, I have a LOT of sensors defined, such as:

#Templates
template:
  - sensor: 
    - name: "ecobee_main_temp"
      unit_of_measurement: 'F' 
      state: "{{ state_attr('climate.main_floor_ecobee', 'current_temperature') | float }}" 
      device_class: temperature
  - sensor:
    - name: "sunrise_fmt"
      state: "{{ as_timestamp(states.sun.sun.attributes.next_rising) | timestamp_custom ('%H:%M:%S') }}"
  - sensor:
    - name: "sunset_fmt"
      state: "{{ as_timestamp(states.sun.sun.attributes.next_setting) | timestamp_custom ('%H:%M:%S') }}"

Will this break when I update? If so, how (and wherre) do I create/recreate these sensors?

It is only the sensors that HACS provided on that platform, which have been removed.
IFAIK it was mostly sensors about versions of integrations and if there were updates available.

That information is now available in entities under the update domain instead.

Hi James,

HACS is not Home Assistant, it is a custom integration that you use to help you easily load and track items on GitHub.
That message is telling you that HA is not tracking if there is an update or not, and HACS is no longer creating that . Updates will show up where all your other updates show up now…

Oops, didn’t scroll enough. What Wally said…
