Super!

Keep up the great work.

@rwijbenga

Just to keep you updated - I’ve implemented Energy API support at my local development environment

I’ll be doing extra testing testing next weekend, and then publish changes along with few other improvements at once

Exciting news!

I think this is going to be a very good plugin for many new users.... :)

Implemented both Energy and Power monitoring for Fibaro HC3 devices marked with interfaces "energy" (as kWh) and "power" (as W)

@rwijbenga new Energy/Power API works well for me. Feel free to check it out on your end, and let me know if all is good or any issues to be fixed

Great work again!

Did a small test, and it works.. Only small thing....

They changed a device class:

https://developers.home-assistant.io/blog/2021/08/16/state_class_total/

So I changed "measurement" to "total_increasing" in your script to resolve the error message.

https://community.home-assistant.io/t/how-can-i-add-total-increasing-to-my-template-sensor/334961/14

So a simple change for you to do in your build.... ;)

Now testing some devices over a longer period, to be sure.

Right... Home Assistant team keeps adjusting the specification. This is fine because it is an evolutionary process that makes the platform a better/cleaner place to work with.

• it appears that "last_reset" property needs attention too, based on the docs from you + logs from my Home Assistant "2021-09-06 01:11:50 WARNING (MainThread) [homeassistant.components.sensor] Entity sensor.svet_gostinaia (<class 'homeassistant.components.mqtt.sensor.MqttSensor'>) with state_class measurement has set last_reset. Setting last_reset is deprecated and will be unsupported from Home Assistant Core 2021.11. Please update your configuration if state_class is manually configured, otherwise create a bug report at https://github.com/home-assistant/core/issues?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Aissue+label%3A%22integration%3A+mqtt%22"

It is a pity that I spent time on implementing last_reset logic, as it needs to be removed now. If feels like this Home Assistant spec is most likely outdated - https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/sensor.mqtt

I'll apply the changes this weekend. And I also plan to check Home Assistant logs for warning messages more frequently :)

I’ve implemented the changes to total_increasing and last_reset properties. Doing local testing and then commit changes during weekend
