Changes in 7.7.0
HA BLE parser for DIY sensors
This release adds initial testing support for your own Do It Yourself (DIY) sensors. The BLE format (called HA BLE) that has to be used by your DIY sensor is following the official Bluetooth format (GATT Characteristic and Object Type). More explanation is given in the documentation on GitHub.
Important note
Note that in the current release, you will have to define your sensors manually in const.py. This file will be overwritten when updating BLE monitor, so make a note of the added sensors. In a future release, I will change it such that the sensors are added automatically, based on what type of measurement is broadcasted. Till then, you will have to work with this temporary workaround.
