Issues with installing your integration

Hi,

I'm keen to get this working myself - I've found various versions of the Rainforest EMU-2 integration - but none work :(

I see yours is probably a little more up to date? But installing it on HA 2023.11.3 fails with some errors. I think I fixed the first error - which was because async_setup_platforms has been removed.

But now I have this error:

2023-12-05 22:29:28.548 ERROR (MainThread) [homeassistant.components.sensor] Error while setting up rainforest_emu_2 platform for sensor
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/src/homeassistant/homeassistant/helpers/entity_platform.py", line 359, in _async_setup_platform
    await asyncio.shield(task)
  File "/config/custom_components/rainforest_emu_2/sensor.py", line 44, in async_setup_entry
    sensor = EMU2Sensor(hass, config_entry)
             ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
  File "/config/custom_components/rainforest_emu_2/sensor.py", line 57, in __init__
    self._name = config_entry.data[CONF_NAME]
                 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~^^^^^^^^^^^
KeyError: 'name'

Any update to your integration? Or tips to fix.
