Migrating and merging this component with the Ecovacs core integration

[edenhaus]

I'm currently migrating this integration to the core to make it easier to use it and add the ability to translate it into all supported languages.
This issue is here to track the status.

This whole component will be included in HA 2024.2 except for the following things:

• The events cleaning_job and custom_command.
• The last cleaning and stats type sensors

Migrations steps

1: Remove all Deebot 4 Home Assistant config entries
2: Uninstall Deebot 4 Home Assistant via HACS
3: Restart Home Assistant
4: Setup the builtin Ecovacs integration

If you have issues setting up the core integration, make sure no deebot folder exists under [config dir]/custom_components (Delete it if it exists) and restart Home Assistant

@scooper1 Reported with home-assistant/core#109336 and should be fixed with the next beta

When I try to setup using integration it loads the setup for a long time and shows this:
Config flow could not be loaded: Unknown error

Also can you tell me where are the cofig entries I should delete for Deebot 4 Home Assistant

Update: Restarted home assistant and the Ecovacs integration setup worked

The new core version is failing for me with authenticate for the self hosted bumper version.
It is because of cert verify failing, as i use bumper with https.

• For mqtt you add an check if the cert should be verified
• The same is missing for the rest part, to disable cert verify
  • Or I miss the point how it works

My current intermediate solution is as follow:

$docker exec -it homeassistant bash -c "sed -i 's/async_get_clientsession(hass)/async_get_clientsession(hass, verify_ssl=False)/g' /usr/src/homeassistant/homeassistant/components/ecovacs/config_flow.py"
$docker exec -it homeassistant bash -c "sed -i 's/async_get_clientsession(self._hass)/async_get_clientsession(self._hass, verify_ssl=False)/g' /usr/src/homeassistant/homeassistant/components/ecovacs/controller.py"

Hi,
I'm planning on migrating but I have one question about point 1: "Remove all Deebot 4 Home Assistant config entries".
What do you mean specifically? I set up the HACS integration using the UI so I don't have created any config entries manually.
Thanks!

I added a link, which should show all your config entries. You need to remove all first

I've migrated to the core integration but am having problems with the service call in my automation not working. I previously used this in my automation, which worked fine with the Deebot HACS integration:

service: vacuum.send_command
data:
  params:
    rooms: 0
    cleanings: 1
  command: spot_area
target:
  entity_id: vacuum.george

This still seems to work fine if I manually run the action in the automation. But when it's called from the automation, which is triggered buy a schedule event, it just seems to skip over and exit the automation.

@jayscovill Please create an issue in the core repo with the automation traces and logs

I have migrated to the core integration, but it seems it no longer has the command to refresh, will this be added at a later date?

Nope as also in this integration that command is deprecated. Please use the builtin update_entity service

I have migrated to the core integration and nowI am missing the last_cleaning sensor. Especially I used it's timestamp attribute in my automations to check if cleaning was already done today.
Why is it missing? Or is there other way to get this value?

[myhomeiot]

Also missing way to get last_cleaning, meanwhile I make this by saving time at input_text but sure this was a good sensor in previous version.

[jayscovill]

I've never had a last cleaning sensor for the X1 Omni and I've done the same thing. As part of the cleaning automation I write the current date/time to a input_datetime.

service: input_datetime.set_datetime
target:
  entity_id: input_datetime.vacuum_cleaning_start
data:
  datetime: "{{ now().strftime('%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S') }}"
