Add support for Relative Humidity #17

Closed lyakh closed 5 years ago

lyakh commented 6 years ago

Add a method to read Relative Humidity, the algorithm is a near copy of the code in the BME280 datasheet and the BME280 library by Bosch Sensortec GmbH.

BMP280 does not contain humidity sensor. BME280 does, but this library is not for it.

Hi Nerijus,

I see your point, but (1) it would be silly to make an additional library for BME280, it makes much more sense to extend the existing BMP280 library, and (2) the current version already contains some reference to humidity fields, only present on BME280: e.g. the calibration data struct bmp280_calib_data already contains dig_H1...dig_H6.

Thanks Guennadi
