Why Sonoff disappeared from HA
I apologize for my English, I am from Ukraine.
prompt in which folder you need to install the “custom_components” folder
and of course the component itself is SonoffLAN.
For some reason he disappeared from the store?
on my Debian 11, Doker, Home Assistant,

  • Hass.io “Home Assistant Supervised”.
2

\config\custom_components\

That’s the correct location.

Manual is here:

Thank you, I know this address, but the question is not about that.
actually there are 2 questions:

  • why Sonoff support has disappeared from the official repository;
  • where to put the “custom_components” folder?
    P.S.
    Sorry…
    In this folder I put, but HA dont view this folder…
    restart … no…

I do not see any Sonoff add-ons in the modern panel
in http://192.168.1.12:8123/hassio/store

Add Sonoff from HACS
Restart HA

You are using SonoffLAN by AlexxIT, which is installed via HACS, yes?

If yes, and assume you install everything correctly, you would NOT find any SonoffLAN integration anywhere under Configuration > Integration like this:

And this is because that specific Integration is not configured via GUI. You would have to setup everything in your configuration.yaml

Reference the video (see above) and the GitHub manual (also see above).

Not exactly everything…

The only thing you need to write in configuration.yaml is this:

sonoff:
  username: [email protected]
  password: mypassword
  reload: always  # update device list every time HA starts

restart your machine and all your devices will be added automatically.

Hello, Dear Home Assistant specialists!
I want to wish you a Happy New Year! :slight_smile:

  • I want to strongly apologize for my pause,
    she was connected with technical problems …
    But, 12/31/2021: 22; 30 I had doubts -
    How can a Wi-Fi device be able to access the network if it doesn’t know the password?
    And just by logic, I realized that the only way to tell the Wi-Fi chip of the Sonoff device is the password,
    it is to tell him the password by connecting through the eWeLink application …
    This time, I basically did NOT reflash the ESP, I just wanted to check Home Assistant for the ability to find Sonoff devices myself.
    And also it was necessary to register the eWeLink account data in the Home Assistant configuration file.
    After registering with eWeLink, the app successfully found my 2 Sonoff devices and then Home Assistant found them.
    Thank you all for your help.
