MQTT ZwaveJsUi and Zwave Notification : Enhancement

[barry44]

Hello

I recently post my misadventure with Zwave Sensor using by defaut Access Control to send door state
The original post is here : viewtopic.php?t=40115

So, I just post here too to ask for en enhancement to manage those devices. Is it possible to bind the door switch to Access Control.
Aeotec tell me that binary sensor is now deprecated for thant

If it could help, it reports in Hardware with an ID like "zwavejs2mqtt_0xc7bf3f61_56-113-0-Access_Control-Door_state", Type "General/Text"
And the text values are : "Window/door is closed" or "Window/door is open in regular position"

I can take screenshots or send information from zwavejsui / domoticz if needed

Thank you

Recognition of text based door/window sensors in Domoticz would be nice, I agree.
A possible workaraound in the meantime is defining a binary sensor in ZwaveJsUI-HomeAssistant-Section.
This worked well for me:

This is an example HASS Device JSON Definition for a Fibaro Sensor (could be adapted to any brand sensor):

{
"type": "sensor",
"object_id": "notification_access_control_door_state",
"discovery_payload": {
"value_template": "{{ {22: \"Window/door is open\",23: \"Window/door is closed\",5632: \"Window/door is open in regular position\",5633: \"Window/door is open in tilt position\"}[value_json.value] | default(value_json.value) }}",

Thank you for your workaround.
I'm not very familiar with HASS Device JSON Definition. But I will learn

With aeotec workaround, it's ok too.

I submit this enhancement to make it easier for all users
