old config is failing to compile/update

[FGOD1983]

it seems that there has been changes made to the way the LD2410 is being configured in ESP Home and therefor my old config is not valid anymore. I tried changing them by looking at examples here and the documentation on the esp page which states that the use of numbers is now needed, but somehow I am unable to get the config working

old config errors:

the new config is being accepted, but fails to compile with tons of errors (which is basically a config taken from one of the issues here stating it should work).

While this is not a solution for this specific problem, but in the meanwhile esphome has released an official component for the ld2410 and have also just merged a significant update into the dev branch that improves configuration flow abilities.

I personally would consider this repository obsolete at this point, there have not been any updates to this for more than a year by now.

seems so indeed, and although the docs of the updated official component is far from ideal, it seems it works if you change the whole config to the number components with the official ld2410 component but leave the values open. it then let's you set those values in HA, but as I was unable to get that working I kinda got issues getting any version to work.

my now working config with the official component is as follows (for whoever has this issue, btw, this also holds a setup for a ledstrip connnected to this same D1 mini):
