The ``tuya`` text sensor platform creates a sensor from a tuya component
and requires :doc:`/components/tuya` to be configured.

You can create the text sensor as follows:

.. code-block:: yaml

    # Create a sensor
    text_sensor:
      - platform: "tuya"
        name: "MyTextSensor"
        sensor_datapoint: 18

Configuration variables:
------------------------

- **id** (*Optional*, :ref:`config-id`): Manually specify the ID used for code generation.
- **name** (**Required**, string): The name of the sensor.
- **sensor_datapoint** (**Required**, int): The datapoint id number of the sensor.
- All other options from :ref:`Text Sensor <config-text_sensor>`.
