Pre-Release 0.0.6

This release focuses on simplifying pin setup, improving pin metadata control, and adding scoped validation for season date fields.

Highlights

• Setup flow is now cleaner:

  • Only mapped pins marked visible are shown during setup.
  • Hidden/unmapped discovered pins are auto-created as entities, disabled by default.

• Pin map schema has been improved:

  • Added CSV columns: Type and Hidden.
  • Type now explicitly controls default entity type.
  • Hidden controls whether a mapped pin appears in setup UI.

• Pin metadata generation is more robust:

  • CSV generator validates and normalizes pin types.
  • Hidden is converted into runtime show_in_ui metadata.
  • pin_map.json is regenerated from the updated schema.

Entity and Config Improvements

• Added support for per-entity default enable state:
  • Hidden/auto-created entities are registered as disabled by default.
• Applied this behavior consistently across all entity platforms:
  • sensor, binary_sensor, switch, number, select, button, text.

Numeric and Date Field Updates

• Updated several mapped pins to better-fit types:
  • Ramp, setpoint, and alarm-style values now use input_number where appropriate.
• Season start date pins (V20–V23) now use input_text for DD/MM values.
• Added scoped DD/MM validation for those season start date pins:
  • Regex metadata generated only for the matching date pins.
  • Pattern is prefilled in config flow.
  • Runtime text writes enforce the pattern when configured.

Notes

• Validation is scoped: only pins with an explicit pattern are affected.
• Existing entities/config entries may need reconfiguration to pick up newly introduced pattern metadata.
