Pull request overview

This PR adds the Matter Doorbell device type to the event platform's discovery schema so that doorbell devices exposing a Switch cluster are surfaced as event entities (button press events), alongside the existing GenericSwitch device type. In Home Assistant's Matter discovery, device_type acts as an additional filter combined with the required Switch attributes (CurrentPosition, FeatureMap), so previously a Doorbell endpoint with a Switch cluster would be excluded because its device type wasn't GenericSwitch.

Changes:

  • Extended the single event MatterDiscoverySchema's device_type tuple from (GenericSwitch,) to (Doorbell, GenericSwitch).

Oh one thing to note, we now have a doorbell device class as well, but it requires a ring event type. Would maybe be cool to add, but I am not sure how that maps well with the event types you have right here
