I’ve been using Node-RED with Home Assistant (HA) for a while: I have a few Arduinos triggering things around my home, and I’m using Node-RED to create matching HA entities (type: switch), made possible by this third-party library:
Now I wanted to try to create custom HA sensors via n8n, but the built-in nodes don’t support that and it seems there is no third-party library which would provide this functionality.
Is this something that is on the roadmap, or is there a third-party library I failed to find? Maybe my overall approach is also flawed - happy to hear your thoughts and suggestions!
