Has anyone been able to successfully implement BOM sensors?

Hi,

I have spent all day trying to build this: https://github.com/DavidFW1960/bom_forecast

They talk about Core BOM Sensor Configuration, which I’m guessing is this: https://home-assistant-china.github.io/components/sensor.bom/

I had the BOM entities which I could pull into a card as a list.
I added the following code to my sensors.yaml from https://home-assistant-china.github.io/components/sensor.bom/ to achieve this:

- platform: bom
    station: IDS60801.94675
    name: Adelaide
    monitored_conditions:
      - apparent_t
      - cloud
      - cloud_base_m
      - cloud_oktas
      - cloud_type_id
      - cloud_type
      - delta_t
      - gust_kmh
      - gust_kt
      - air_temp
      - dewpt
      - press
      - press_qnh
      - press_msl
      - press_tend
      - rain_trace
      - rel_hum
      - sea_state
      - swell_dir_worded
      - swell_height
      - swell_period
      - vis_km
      - weather
      - wind_dir
      - wind_spd_kmh
      - wind_spd_kt

I wanted to create a custom card. Per the first Github link, I added the weather.yaml file into content/packages, and merged the content above into it as the weather.yaml had less monitored conditions. I also added to configuration.yaml - weather: !include_dir_list /content/packages.

Now I get nothing. The automation within weather.yaml appears as an entity but none of the BOM sensors. I then added the core BOM sensors into sensors.yaml and they turned up again…

What gives? Can someone guide me through this shamble? Seems like some serious bugs going on in this system.

Thanks for any assistance!
