Integration ha_tuya_custom

This custom component is the copy of the component implemented in Home Assistant but some modifications to the library used to communicate with Tuya Cloud have been implemented inside it. The aim is to allow tests on the modified library as quickly as possible and then report the changes in the original library used by HA. Obviously, feedback is important to find an optimal solution

Installation & configuration

You can install this component in two ways: via HACS or manually.

Option A: Installing via HACS

If you have HACS, you must add this repository ("https://github.com/ollo69/ha_tuya_custom") to your Custom Repository selecting the Configuration Tab in the HACS page. After this you can go in the Integration Tab and search the "Tuya Custom" component to configure it.

Option B: Manually installation (custom_component)

1. Clone the git master branch.

2. Unzip/copy the tuya_custom direcotry within the custom_components directory of your homeassistant installation. The custom_components directory resides within your homeassistant configuration directory. Usually, the configuration directory is within your home (~/.homeassistant/). In other words, the configuration directory of homeassistant is where the configuration.yaml file is located. After a correct installation, your configuration directory should look like the following.

   └── ...
   └── configuration.yaml
   └── secrects.yaml
   └── custom_components
       └── tuya_custom
           └── __init__.py
           └── climate.py
           └── ...
   

   Note: if the custom_components directory does not exist, you need to create it.

Component setup

For the configuration use exactly the same options used to configure the standard Tuya component, however choosing the Tuya Custom component from the list of additions.

N.B. Before configuring this integration, remove the standard Tuya integration.
