HA - Stockport Bin Collections

A Home Assistant custom integration for displaying bin collection day and which bins need to go out based on your address. This integration scrapes the data from the Stockport bin collection website every 12 hours and will fetch the next bins to go out.

HACS (Recommended)

1. Go to the HACS panel in Home Assistant.
2. Click on the three dots in the top right corner and choose "Custom repositories".
3. Enter b0mbays/stockport-bin-collections in the "Add custom repository" field, select "Integration" from the "Category" dropdown, and click on the "Add" button.
4. Once the custom repository is added, you can install the integration through HACS. You should see "My Bin Collection" in the "Integrations" tab. Click on "Install" to add it to your Home Assistant instance.

2. Copy the custom_components/stockport-bin-collections directory to the custom_components directory in your Home Assistant configuration.

Configuration
