v1.1.0

1 year ago

The entire integration has been reworked to use the EskomSePush API to obtain loadshedding status and schedule information.

Users are now required to supply their own EskomSePush API key in order to use this integration.

The following entities are now exposed:

Entity Description
sensor.loadshedding_api_quota The EskomSePush API quota associated with your API key.
sensor.loadshedding_national_status The current national loadshedding stage for Eskom-supplied customers.
sensor.loadshedding_cape_town_status The current loadshedding stage for City of Cape Town customers.
sensor.loadshedding_local_status The current loadshedding stage for your specific area.
calendar.loadshedding_local_events Calendar of upcoming loadshedding events for your specific area.
calendar.loadshedding_local_schedule Calendar containing the full 7-day loadshedding schedule for your specific area.

By default the sensors will update every two hours. This can be edited in the integration configuration, but users are responsible for monitoring their own API usage.
