Sensor for monitoring the contents of a folder. Note that folder paths must be added to allowlist_external_dirs. Optionally a wildcard filter can be applied to the files considered within the folder. The state of the sensor is the size in MB of files within the folder that meet the filter criteria. The sensor exposes the number of filtered files in the folder, total size in bytes of those files and a comma separated list of the file paths as attributes.
Configuration
To enable the folder sensor in your installation, add the following to your {% term "configuration.yaml" %} file:

{% configuration %}
