In order to expose attributes of your component, you will need to define a method called `state_attributes` which will return a dictionary of attributes:
```
@property
def state_attributes(self):
"""Return the attributes of the entity."""
return self._attributes
```
To get your component included in the Home Assistant releases, follow the steps described in the [Submitting improvements](https://home-assistant.io/developers/#submitting-improvements) section. Basically you only need to move your component in the `homeassistant/component/` directory of your fork and create a Pull Request.
