This seems to no longer work starting with ESPHome 2021.10.x. Apparently, as suggested by folks smarter than me, due to core changes. "For example the I2CComponent is used in there, which has been changed into an I2CBus. So that .h file would need a partial rewrite to make it compatible with 2021.10.0."

Having same issue, after update. Problem seems to be with the config file

I've updated the arduino_port_expander.h

I was able to compile in ESPHome. Tks!!!

Up and running, thank you!

Hi,
I was searching for a version for Arduino Mega and found this.

Unfortunately it was not working with the latest version of Esphome. I'm not a programmer, but by making a compare beetwen that version and yours, I succeeded to make it work.
I would be nice to make it official and publish in the Esphome site.

I've added the same comment in thebradleysanders github site.

``Hi, I have arduino nano which is using D2, D3...D13 for digital pins. Neither source .h file, nor .ino file let me to compile and use these pins with such numerotation. Only 2-13.
Could you please tell me where or what should I need to change in order to work?
I'm using instructions (first time....) from esphome webpage where is stated this:

ape_binary_output(expander1, 2)

Thanks

I will look into this and get back to you.

Changed board to esp12e and added another power source to arduino. No need to use Dx pins, it works like in documentation.
So is no issue here :)

Perfect, glad you got it working!

Is there a way to get this to support a Rotary Encoder, etc?
Something like this:

sensors:
  - platform: custom
    lambda: |-
      return {ape_sensor(expander1, 2),
              ape_sensor(expander1, 3),
              ape_sensor(expander1, 4)
              };
    sensor:
  # Rotary Encoder
  - platform: rotary_encoder
    name: "Rotary Encoder"
    pin_a: encoderApin
    pin_b: encoderBpin
  # DHT22
  - platform: dht
    pin: dht22pin
    temperature:
      name: "Living Room Temperature"
    humidity:
      name: "Living Room Humidity"
    update_interval: 60s

@NonaSuomy Did you ever figure out how to get a rotary encoder to work?

No I have not, what pin are you using, analog or digital?

@kc9ryt I confirmed with @glmnet and they said it is not currently possible to utilize this library like that as it has no way to link up the encoder stuff in ESPHome with the Arduino port expander. You would have to modify the code base to allow it to accept these functions.

I found another Arduino library that allows you to use Rotary Encoders over I2C but in its current state can't just be utilized like this library by including it and would have to be modified to be properly compatible. I ask the maintainer if it was possible to do something like this. They said they may be able to look into it unfortunately their health faltered and couldn't look into it.
