v0.8.6

[dummylabs]

What's new

🚀 Improvements:

• Improved management of ignored items and files in the configuration; replaced comma-separated lists with UI pills(feat: migrate ignored items/files to SelectSelector chip input #310).
• Added the force_parsing action parameter. When set to true, the parser explicitly bypasses cached results and forces a full re-parsing of all configuration files (feat: force_parsing mode in watchman.report #291).
• The maximum file size limit for a single configuration file can now be disabled in the integration options screen (File /config/.storage/lovelace is too large #265).
• Deprecated the parse_config action parameter. The new parser now automatically detects modified config files with near-zero overhead, as results for unmodified files are cached (feat: force_parsing mode in watchman.report #291).

🐛 Bugfixes:

• Purpose-specific condition intents are now properly suppressed by the parser (person.is_not_home (purpose-specific condition) flagged as a missing entity #306).
• Improved script_id resolution for automation checks. Thanks @FaHuSchmidt! (Fix script unique_id resolution for automation checks #304)
• Entities with the state disabled (not to be confused with those disabled in the entity registry) no longer trigger false positives (Entities with status disabled (not disabled in devices/integration) reported in watchman report #296).
• Introduced a stateless domains list. Entities from these domains will not trigger false positives for the unknown state (covers new update 0.8.4 sees Philips Hue lighting scenes as unknown #286) (fix: extend list of STATELESS_DOMAINS (special case for entities with permanent unknown state) #294).
• Ignored unavailable state in report filtering now works propely (fix: exclude unavailable entities when ignored #317)

🛠️ Other:

• parser-cli to show cached parsing results (feat: parser-cli to show cached results from db #307)

Note

The deprecation of the parse_config parameter might force the Actions window into YAML mode. To restore UI Mode, just remove text from Action data field. This issue has also been added to the FAQ in the documentation.
