Ability to add KNX entity’s

[pkkr]

Adding KNX entities like Climate etc is pretty painful and annoying over the UI.

Added ha_knx_get_project at some point with already helps debugging etc. with this we already have access to the group addresses and we could easily create alle the HA entities.

If you agree let me know where you would be okay to add this, we would need to call the websocket for knx/create_entity

I could build it but want some direction bevor I do something the wrong way. Thanks

I believe someone brought this up a few months ago. I'm pretty sure that the existing tools can handle knx stuff directly already, probably the manage app tool or s different or similar one.

I added the get ha_knx_get_project back then but I checked and seems like adding is not possible.. or at least wasn’t offert as a function.. can check again. But in general it would be fine ? I guess you don't wanna add a new tool just for KNX ? So should I look into adding it to the manage app ?

Actually I looked back at that PR #1658, we added the functionality to the get integration tool. But we never added any write functionality.

What you're asking for is actually already possible with the call service tool, but it's like an escape hatch tool, so your AI will have to kinda suss out how to use it.

The integration tools are currently being reworked in pr #2930 , the PR is far from finished but it's supposed to allow the tools to have the same native functionality you'd get thru the frontend/core/etc. It should theoretically include the knx integration support as well as it's supposed to include support for all integrations.
