🐾 New Features

Petlibro Schedule Card Support

Petlibro dry feeders can now integrate directly with the dispenser-schedule-card using the new unified feeding schedule format.

With compatible dashboard cards, users can now:

• View today's feeding schedule
• Enable or disable schedules
• Skip today's remaining feeds
• Add, edit, disable, skip, or delete individual feeding entries
• Display labels, amounts, repeat status, sound settings, and feed state
• Display alternate units such as grams
• Support one-time / non-recurring feeding entries where supported

This greatly improves dashboard-based feeder management and automation workflows.

Unified Feeding Schedule Attributes

Feeding schedule data has been refactored into a single unified structure exposed through the primary Feeding Schedule binary sensor.

Schedule entries are now provided through a consolidated schedule list containing fields such as:

• id
• label
• time
• amount_cups
• amount_oz
• amount_g
• amount_ml
• amount_raw
• enabled
• recurring
• repeat_days
• sound
• today
• state

The new today flag identifies entries scheduled for the current day, while state can report values including:

• pending
• to_be_skipped
• dispensed
• skipped
• unknown

Per-Pet RFID Fountain Drinking Sensors

Added support for per-pet RFID fountain drinking sensors.

Users with compatible RFID-enabled fountain devices can now track drinking activity on a per-pet basis, enabling more detailed hydration monitoring and automations.

🛠 Fixes

• Fixed the Today's Feeding Schedule binary sensor incorrectly remaining active when schedules were skipped or disabled
• Fixed translation file naming issues preventing Home Assistant translations from loading correctly

⚠️ Breaking Changes / Migration Notes

Feeding Schedule Attribute Changes

Feeding schedule data is no longer exposed through the Today's Feeding Schedule binary sensor attributes.

Users with existing dashboards, automations, markdown cards, or templates using the old format will need to migrate to the new unified schedule structure.

Use the main feeding schedule sensor instead:

state_attr('binary_sensor.YOUR_FEEDER_feeding_schedule', 'schedule')

To filter entries for today:

plan.today == true

Existing custom schedule cards and markdown templates may require updates to support the new structure.
