Sonoff LAN Clear Entity IDs (fork of AlexxIT/SonoffLAN)

This is a fork of the original AlexxIT/SonoffLAN integration.

The purpose of this fork is to improve entity_id readability in Home Assistant by adding the device friendly name into the generated entity IDs.

This fork does not modify unique_id values. Existing installations remain unaffected. This fork replaces the original SonoffLAN integration and cannot be installed side-by-side.

✨ What This Fork Changes

The original SonoffLAN integration creates entity IDs using only the device ID:

• switch.sonoff_1000xxxx_1

With many devices, this becomes difficult to manage.

This fork generates entity IDs that include the user-defined device name from the eWeLink/Sonoff app:

• switch.sonoff_your_device_name_1000xxxx_1

---

✅ Features

• Friendly and readable clear entity IDs
• Multi-channel device support (_1, _2, _3, _4)
• Turkish character support (ı, İ, ğ, ş, ç, ö, ü)
• Works across all entity types:
  • switch, sensor, light, cover, climate, remote, binary_sensor
• Backward compatible:
  • Existing installations are not renamed automatically
  • New installations and newly added devices use the new format
