v1.9.0

New Features

Individual Sensor Customization

• Customizable Icons for Each Sensor: A new configuration pattern, xxx_icon, is available for individual sensors, enabling users to customize icons for each monitored parameter independently. Replace xxx with the specific sensor name (e.g., temperature_icon, ph_icon, orp_icon).
  • Options:
    • image_url: Specify a custom image URL to display a unique icon for each sensor.
    • mdi: Use Material Design Icons (MDI) for a consistent visual style across all sensor icons.
    • hide: Hide the icon for any specific sensor.
  • Default: By default (if no configuration is specified), the system will continue using the images from the resources directory as before.

Global Display Configuration

• Toggle Icon and Unit Display: Added global settings to control the display of icons and units for all sensors.
  • show_icons (boolean): Allows users to enable or disable the display of all sensor icons at once.
    • Default: true (icons are displayed by default).
