Setting device_class attribute for some sensors

[kaizersoje]

Is it possible to set the device_class for some sensors? I know this can be done in the customize section but I think it is better if they are set during creation.

entity	device_class
sensor.astroweather_2m_relative_humidity	humidity
sensor.astroweather_2m_temperature	temperature
sensor.astroweather_moon_next_rising	timestamp
sensor.astroweather_moon_next_setting	timestamp
sensor.astroweather_sun_next_rising	timestamp
sensor.astroweather_sun_next_setting	timestamp
sensor.astroweather_sun_next_rising_astronomical	timestamp
sensor.astroweather_sun_next_setting_astronomical	timestamp
sensor.astroweather_timestamp	timestamp

I guess the one issue I can see is that the timestamp entities may not be in the correct ISO8601 format.

Hi, you're absolutely correct. I guess I missed that for the reason, that most sensors do not have a fitting device_class. For the ones with a match, I will include them in the next version.

There's an issue with the lifted index device class.

Logger: homeassistant.components.sensor.recorder
Source: components/sensor/recorder.py:259
Integration: Sensor (documentation, issues)
First occurred: 12:30:10 (1 occurrences)

sensor.astroweather_lifted_index has unit ° which is unsupported for device_class temperature

Both fixed in release v0.20.6
