`supervisor-2021.02.5` has made configuration difficult
See original GitHub issuesupervisor-2021.02.5 seems to have significantly changed the add-on configuration experience. It now presents all configuration options as a generated form unless the configuration includes lists (since it can’t handle that). This now causes this add-on to display an absolutely massive list of configuration options, nearly all of which are already configurable in the add-on UI.
It also doesn’t seem to be parsing booleans correctly? For instance I see this in the configuration UI for the add-on:
But as you can see below, I have both the sensors turned on in the add-on UI and can confirm they definitely appears in my list of entities:
Anyway I really don’t know the implications of this change. I’m honestly afraid to modify anything in the configuration panel now because I don’t really trust that its correctly pulling in the options I configured in the UI and I don’t want to mess up my working configuration. I just wanted to make sure you were aware this happened as it now looks quite overwhelming for new users. And yea if existing users have to change any of the options not exposed in the UI it may be quite difficult now.

In the meantime for anyone seeing this, its still possible to save configuration from within the supervisor UI. If you click the “…” and select “Edit in YAML” you can remove all of the empty configuration options, which allows it to save and appears to work as you would expect. All the empty values get added back in if you switch to the form UI editor, which is the default when you start to edit.
I just released v0.104.1 of the addon, which removes the configuration options that were making problems for the new config editor UI in HA. It still has the problem of diplaying
False/Empty String/0for values that aren’t configured but at this point I don’t think my complaint is going to get any traction so I think this is the best I can do.To update the addon, go to:
Supervisor>Add-on Store> Click the...in the top right >Refreshand you should see the new version. HA will also find it automatically if you give it enough time.Kindly re-open this issue if you continue to run into problems.
