Description:
Add ability to disable entities from the entity registry. When a disabled entity is passed to
async_add_entities
, it will be ignored.To disable an entity, add the key
disabled_by: user
to an entity. We might in the future also getdisabled_by: hass
if an entity is doing I/O in the event loop or misbehaving in any other way 👍For integrations to make sure that they don't do any extra work, they should make sure to only listen for updates to their entities when
async_added_to_hass
is called.Checklist:
If the code does not interact with devices:
tox
run successfully. Your PR cannot be merged unless tests pass
