Installation error on RPi3 with Buster

[chimcen]

Hi,

thank you for your plugin - but i got an error during installation. I‘ve followed your instruction, installed bcm lib before, but i got an erren when installing your plugin on my Pi with Raspian Buster.

Here are the errors: ....................................................................................................................................................................................... make: *** [node_dht_sensor.target.mk:110: Release/obj.target/node_dht_sensor/node-dht-sensor.o] Fehler 1 make: Verzeichnis „/usr/local/lib/node_modules/homebridge-dht-rpi/node_modules/node-dht-sensor/build“ wird verlassen gyp ERR! build error gyp ERR! stack Error: make failed with exit code: 2 gyp ERR! stack at ChildProcess.onExit (/usr/local/lib/node_modules/npm/node_modules/node-gyp/lib/build.js:194:23) gyp ERR! stack at ChildProcess.emit (events.js:210:5) gyp ERR! stack at Process.ChildProcess._handle.onexit (internal/child_process.js:272:12) gyp ERR!

The issue is with the installation of this module, https://github.com/momenso/node-dht-sensor and I think I have it grabbing an older version.

Let me look into it.

I updated the dependant libraries to the latest version, please re-install the plugin and try again.

Awesome - it works like a charm.

Some questions: 1) is it possible to combine temp and hunidity to one"sensor" - just to display the dht22 the same way as the BME280 from your mcuiot project in Apple Home or Eve App?

2) The refresh time is in minutes or seconds entered in config.json?

3) Is it possible to add an +/- offset to the meassurements of the dht22? eventually directly in config.json?

Thank you :)

Some questions:

1. is it possible to combine temp and humidity to one"sensor" - just to display the dht22 the same way as the BME280 from your mcuiot project in Apple Home or Eve App?

Are you referring to the iOS 13 behaviour?

Basement is a DHT22, and Cold Cellar is a MCUIOT

2. The refresh time is in minutes or seconds entered in config.json?

It is in seconds, I fixed the README me to include this

3. Is it possible to add an +/- offset to the meassurements of the dht22? eventually directly in config.json?

That is not a current feature, if you are looking for accuracy you may want to use the BME280 instead. The DHT22 are horribly inaccurate. But if you really want it, I would gladly accept a pull request with this a new optional feature.

After looking at the iOS 13 behaviour, I made it match the MCUIOT behaviour, update to the latest and try again

[chimcen]

It works - thank you :)

To point 3) - ...I’ve actually no idea how to do this...
