    Hi

    Bought a new ZB device, an EV charger.
    I was aware that there would one manufacturer specific cluster that wouldn't work out of the box, but several other clusters I hoped would work from start does not. Or at least there isn't any enteties for them.

    So I have tried to study how to write a local quirk, but it is a bit overwhelming for mt brain.
    Usually I can manage do get stuff moving with intense googling, finding guides or different solutions that I can start from, but here I find nothing that I can wrap my head around.
    My latest try was to chat with Gemini AI 😰 (programmers, rest assured that your job will be safe for the foreseeable future 😁 )

    I have gathered my device Diagnostic Info.
    I have manufacturers ZB documentation.
    A device support request is created on zigpy github (no response the last weeks)

    For now there is just two entities for my device, on/off switch and energy sensors.

    All non manufacture attributes and commands seems to be recognized in ZHA "Manage this Device"
    It would be great if I could get some entities out of them.
    For example the entity for manage charging power is expected to be presented as a dimmer slider.
    But why isn't there any entity created??

    The manufacture specific cluster is more of nice-to-have and could maybe be solved another day.

    Any help would be much appreciated. 🙏

    I have a case where I'm trying to send a MQTT message similar to the example below:

    Topic: pool/set { "command": 4, "value": 1, "time": 0, "interval": 0 }

    But I need to set "value" so that it is an integer between 20-30. I thought I could use "dimming" capability here, but there's probably a better way. @therealdb ?

    I’ve built a migrator from datamine format to the format used by MSR in influxdb. If anyone needs it, I could think of releasing it.
    I’ve moved 4 years worth of data this way and it’s working beautifully, since I used to run queries with my own engine and now they’re running inside influxdb, that’s very quick, since it’s built for that purpose.

    @toggledbits it’s not doing http calls, but it’s waiting for a bash command to complete. I’m not sure it this is correlated, but I’ll take a look.

    Speaking solely for myself, if I have data of any type that I wish to preserve/view/review, it's easiest for me just to send it to Google Spreadsheets (via a simple Form link) using MSR, where I can have charts, graphs, tables, whatever suits my needs. But understandably, most users will not want to "roll their own" in this fashion.

    Always nice to have easy-to-setup alternative workflows.

    oh, we should ping @PoltoS in order to understand if that's available to devs as well, or it's intended as a generic feature to consume websockets. websockets are a game changer.
