Valve switch entity does not allow "valve" entity

[MetheLittle]

Hi, like this approach of watering the garden.
Was playing with node-red to build something similar and found your project while looking for inspiration :)

I used the monitoring mode to get an overview of how it works, then tried to add my valve to see it in action, but my i.e. bhyve timer is a valve entity not a switch entity and not listed in the drop down.

Would it be possible to add the valve entites to the selection?

Thanks for the clear write-up — and great that NeverDry was useful as inspiration alongside Node-RED!

You're right: today the entity picker only lists switch.* entities, so a valve.* entity like your B-hyve timer doesn't show up. Supporting the valve domain is on the roadmap.

The underlying work is a small actuator abstraction layer (commands + state) so NeverDry can drive both switch.* and valve.* entities through the same safety logic — this connects to the broader actuator-abstraction direction discussed in #74.

Scope for the first release: binary valves (entities supporting OPEN/CLOSE). Position-based valves (set_valve_position) will come later. I'll update this issue when it lands.
