It looks like I have to create a set of lambdas to end up with a value_fn?
So long as I know if a key comes from either the WALLCONNECTOR_DATA_VITALS or WALLCONNECTOR_DATA_LIFETIME json I just duplicate sensor description blocks?

#

ah, so "requirements": ["tesla-wall-connector==1.0.2"],
is separate to core?

If your data is already in the response that would be the way to go.

Yes, it's installed via pip. Look it up on pypi.org

If you have to change things in the lib you can just copy (symlink) it into the HA config folder of your dev environment.
Not sure for devcontainer though.

#

It will load your modified lib then.

work on this is going to be bursty, we don't have an EV, but have a couple of chargers for guests, so I can only check on the charging state stuff when one turns up with an EV (as happened tonight)
