Expanded Sensor Data

I've significantly expanded the data available for each ski resort. You can now monitor:

  • Avalanche Warning Level (e.g., "2 - mäßig")
  • Snow Condition (e.g., "Pulver")
  • Last Snowfall Date
  • Slope Statistics:
    • Slopes Open/Total (km)
    • Slopes Open/Total (count)
    • Slope Condition
  • Snow Forecast Images (New Platform)
    Snow forecast maps are now provided as proper Image Entities instead of text sensors. This allows them to be displayed directly in your dashboard using standard image cards, and they are now cached by Home Assistant for better performance.

Bug Fixes

  • Last Update Unavailable: Fixed an issue where the "Last Update" sensor would show as "Unavailable" or "Unknown" due to missing timezone information.
  • Snow Forecast URLs: Improved logic to correctly extract the region path for snow forecast images, fixing issues where images were missing for certain resorts or when using sub-page URLs (e.g., /schneebericht/).
  • Date Parsing: Improved date parsing to correctly handle timestamps that include the year.
  • HACS Installation: Fixed configuration to ensure correct download via HACS.

Improvements

  • Conditional Entities: Image entities are now only created if a valid image URL exists for that day, preventing "Unknown" entities in your registry.
  • Device Linking: Image entities are now correctly linked to the Bergfex device in Home Assistant.
