esphome configuration for my Open Energy Monitor thermostat

thermostat.yaml

# This is an esphome configuration file for the OpenEnergyMonitor Thermostat
# The primary objectives of this configuration file are:
# 1) The temperature used as the sensor for the thermostat should be read from 
#    homeassistant, this lets you use an average or change the room the 
#    temperature is based on depending on the time of day etc.
# 2) If homeassisant goes offline the thermostat keeps working.
# To this end there is a sensor "average_temperature" which is recieved from hass
# and a second sensor "combined_temperature" which decides based on if a device 
# is connected to the native API or not to use this sensor or the local sensor 
# attached to the thermostat.
# Finally, when the last device disconnects from the Native API the thermostat 
# will be put into heat mode with a default setpoint, meaning that it will keep
# itself at a useful temperature even though it is disconnected from hass.
