briis/unifiprotect v0.12.0-beta9

Version 0.12.0-beta9

on GitHub

Home Assistant core port complete! The version that is in 2022.2 will officially have all of the same features. This is the final backport version to make sure the two versions are equal. The only difference between 0.12.0-beta9 and the code in 2022.2 is

• Migration code from < 0.11.x has been dropped. You must be on at least 0.11.0 or newer to migrate to the Home Assistant core version.

Additionally, we could not add every feature from the HACS version to the HA core version so there are 2 additional breaking changes in this release (sorry!):

• CHANGE: BREAKING CHANGE Removes profile_ws and take_sample debug services. Core plans to add a more centralized way of getting debug information from an integration. This will be back in some form after that feature is added (estimate: 1-2 major core releases).

• CHANGE: BREAKING CHANGE Removes event_thumbnail attribute and associated ThumbnailProxyView. After a lot of discussion, core does not want to add more attributes with access tokens inside of attributes. We plan to add back event thumbnails in some form again. If you would like to follow along with the dicussion, checkout the architecure dicussion for it.

• FIX: More Websocket reconnect improvements.

Going forward, there will be some new features for the 0.12.0-beta / core version that will be developed for core version and then be backported to the HACS version. These include improvements for the G4 Doorbell Pro and the UP Sense devices.

⚠️ ⚠️ WARNING ABOUT Home Assistant v2022.2

The unifiprotect integration will be in Home Assistant core v2022.2. If you are running 0.10.x or older of the HACS integration, do not install v2022.2.x of Home Assistant core.

If you are running 0.11.x or the 0.12.0-beta, you should be safe to delete the HACS version as part of your upgrade. The 0.11.x branch is designed to be compatible with the 0.12.0-beta and the HA core version. The latest version of 0.12.0-beta will be the version of unifiprotect in HA core in v2022.0.

After v2022.2.0 comes out, this repo will be deprecated in favor of the Home Assistant core version.

Steps to migrate to the Home Assistant core version:

1. Upgrade to the latest 0.11.x release or the latest 0.12.0-beta release for the HACS unifiprotect integration and restart Home Assistant.
2. Upgrade to Home Assistant 2022.2.x
3. Remove your HACS unifiprotect integration and restart Home Assistant. It is safe to ignore the warning about needing to remove your config first.
