Home Assistant add-on for external traffic generator

[francescopace]

I’ve added a Home Assistant add-on for the external traffic generator, with a built-in panel accessible from the sidebar.

The panel lets you:

• Start and stop the generator.
• Switch individual or selected ESPectre devices between internal and external traffic.
• View traffic rate, CSI rate, occupancy, Wi-Fi RSSI, and IP addresses.
• Open each device’s Home Assistant page directly.

Installation

1. Open Settings → Apps → Install app.
2. Select ⋮ → Repositories, add https://github.com/francescopace/espectre, and close the dialog.
3. Search for ESPectre Traffic Generator and select Install. If it is missing, select ⋮ → Check for updates.
4. Open Configuration and keep the defaults for a first test, including an empty Source IPv4 address.
5. Return to Info, enable Start on boot and Watchdog, and select Start.
6. Select Open Web UI, or enable Show in sidebar to keep ESPectre Traffic in the Home Assistant menu.
