id		yes	The ID of the station (descibed below)
name	tankerkoenig_[ID]	no	Custom name of the station, used for the sensors
street		no	Street of the station
brand		no	Brand of the station

Description

To create the API-KEY and find the IDs of the stations follow the first steps of the blog-post: https://www.panbachi.de/tankerkoenig-preise-in-home-assistant-darstellen-141/

The component will create three sensors and one binary_sensor for each station:

• sensor.NAME_e5
• sensor.NAME_e10
• sensor.NAME_diesel
• binary_sensor.NAME_state

The sensors are used for the price and the binary_sensor is used for the state if the station is currently open or not and additionally stores the street and brand (if they were set).

Due to how custom_components are loaded, it is normal to see a ModuleNotFoundError error on first boot after adding this, to resolve it, restart Home-Assistant.
