Add support for River Mini (non-wireless)

[mik9]

Fixes #19

[vedranius]

Hi, does this mean that I can get charge level via HASS from River Mini? or?
Because I'd like to automate Xiaomi plug to automatically turn ON when River Mini is on 10%.
Is that possible now?
Tnx a lot and happy new year! :)

Yes, you can. I have everything working on my unit. Probably it will work with wireless version as well, but without reporting USB Type-C power usage. You can try to install it from this branch.

However I see ver3 branch contains some interesting device creation code, that creates 2 devices instead 1. I didn't touched it in this PR but you can checkout hack-fixed version from https://github.com/mik9/hassio-ecoflow/tree/features/river-mini branch.

Can you help me with finding the IP address of River Mini?
I'm trying to find it, but it doesn't show in any of lists:

• router devices list
• nmap
• fing (Android app)

I can't find any device with Ecoflow_xxx_xxx name.
And I've even got the MAC address when connected to River Mini directly via it's wi-fi hotspot, but when it's connected to my local home wi-fi then I can't find it by that MAC address...
Any idea?

Thanks a lot!

Weird, it's shown in my router as EcoFlow_fb24. Also I nmap (nmap 192.168.1.0/24) successfully found it:

I've connected it now to isolated wi-fi network, and it shows as LWIP device.
But when I enter it's IP address into home assistant Ecoflow integration, nothing happens.

EDIT: I've also tried connecting my RPi4 directly to ecoflow wi-fi hotspot and adding the 192.168.4.1 to integrations, and then it adds it, but doesn't show any entities... As it's not connected to internet?

Try branch from my repo: https://github.com/mik9/hassio-ecoflow/tree/features/river-mini
I see adding devices completely broken in ver3 branch here.

I've tried it now, and it's the same... :/

No idea then. Maybe firwmare update? I have latest firmware on my device.

@vwt12eh8 can this be merged? @mik9 is there a way I could test this feature to see if it works?
