Fetch outside temperature from gateway #408

Closed dwlfrth closed 3 months ago

dwlfrth commented 3 months ago

I do not know if that information is available through the Hilo Gateway, but it would be nice to be able to get the outside temperature used on the thermostats. With that info, it could be used to display the same information on other thermostat not part of Hilo (Sinope per exemple) and other dashboard so the "outside temperature" will be constant all accross Home Assistant

Hilo uses Weather Underground's API to get outside temperature. You could always setup a REST API sensor to get the same info and have it displayed elsewhere.

AFAIK it's not part of the API calls we make at the moment as it's on a different endpoint. I'll try and get Hilo to publish the doc for it.

Awesome ! I knew they were using an API crossmatched with postal code, didn't know which one ! Thanks a bunch ! I'll use the source then :)

You're welcome. I can try and have the integration report it but my time (and experience) is limited so I wouldn't hold my breath haha.

@dwlfrth This will be added by #411. I'm trying for a release sometime this month.

dwlfrth commented 2 months ago

OMG this is AWESOME ! Je me bat depuis 2 semaines avec Weather Underground pour comprendre d'où vient la température parce-que mon OCD ne veux pas voir une température X sur un thermostat et une température Y ailleurs !! Merci !!

ic-dev21 commented 2 months ago

@dwlfrth released just now.

Fait plaisir
