v1.0.0b1 - A long time coming

[cryptk]

This is a MAJOR refactor of the integration based on an equally refactored library. This has been a long time coming and resolves a lot of the maintainability problems with the integration and library that made this difficult to support and extend.

There shouldn't be too much that's directly visible yet, but there are some known breaking changes, specifically Valve Actuators now use the valve platform and some of the sensors have been renamed to make it more clear what they are for.

Please report any errors or missing functionality in the Discussion associated with this release.

The upshot of this, the underlying library now supports more functionality, including some items that have been requested for a long time (hello Chlorinator ORP control). That's not in the integration yet, but it's in the library and adding it should be relatively easy at this point.

Breaking Changes

Valve Actuators Now Use Valve Platform

Valve actuator relays have been moved from the switch platform to the new valve platform. This is a breaking change that will require users to update their automations and dashboards.

What this means for you:

• Valve actuator entities will now appear as valve entities instead of switch entities
• Entity IDs will change (e.g., switch.pool_waterfall becomes valve.pool_waterfall)
• Any automations, scripts, or dashboards referencing valve actuator switches must be updated to reference the new valve entities
• The valve platform provides a more semantically correct interface for these devices

Library Refactor - Entity Name Changes

This release includes a major refactor to use a newly redesigned underlying library (python-omnilogic-local). While the functionality remains the same, some entity names and attributes may have changed.

Action required:

• Review all entities after upgrading
• Check your automations and update any entity references as necessary
• Verify dashboards are displaying the correct entities
• Test critical automations before relying on them
