openHop Repeater Home Assistant Integration v1.1.4
This release completes the user-facing rebrand from pyMC Repeater to openHop Repeater and moves the Home Assistant integration to the openHop GitHub organization.
New Repositories
Home Assistant Integration
https://github.com/openhop-dev/openHop-HA-Integration
openHop Repeater
https://github.com/openhop-dev/openhop_repeater
What's Changed
openHop Rebrand
- Rebranded the Home Assistant integration from pyMC Repeater to openHop Repeater.
- Updated HACS display names, dashboard title, diagnostics, bundled icons, and documentation links.
- Updated repository references to the new openHop GitHub organization.
New Sensor Entities
Added Home Assistant entities for:
- Repeater Sensor Manager summary data
- Configured Repeater sensor plug-ins
Sensor entities are now created dynamically when readings become available, instead of requiring sensor data during the initial integration setup.
Compatibility
Important: The Home Assistant integration domain remains
pymc_repeater.
This is intentional to preserve compatibility with existing Home Assistant installations.
The following identifiers remain unchanged:
- Integration domain
custom_components/pymc_repeater- Config entry IDs
- Service names
- Entity registry references
Do not remove and re-add the integration simply because the branding has changed.
Existing Installations
If you already have the integration installed, update it normally through HACS.
If HACS does not detect updates after the repository move:
-
Do not remove the integration from Devices & Services.
-
Remove the old custom repository from HACS (if present):
-
Add the new custom repository:
-
Select Integration as the repository category.
-
Install or update the integration.
-
Restart Home Assistant.
Your existing configuration should continue to work because the integration domain remains pymc_repeater.
New Installations
Add the following custom repository to HACS:
https://github.com/openhop-dev/openHop-HA-Integration
Then install openHop Repeater and restart Home Assistant.
Notes
- The branding is now openHop Repeater, while the internal integration domain remains
pymc_repeater. - Existing entity IDs, services, and configuration should continue working without migration.
- Do not rename
custom_components/pymc_repeater. - Do not change YAML or automation references from
pymc_repeaterunless a future release provides an official migration path. - Although GitHub redirects the old repository URL, HACS custom repository behavior may vary. If updates stop appearing, follow the repository migration steps above.
