Exposing more than temperature to Homekit #8

Closed BuckarooToo closed 6 years ago

BuckarooToo commented 6 years ago

Even using Elgato's Eve, I am only seeing the daily high temperatures. I would like to see current conditions as well (planning to turn on my roof cables if it is snowing). I'm guessing this involves updating the config.json file, but I'm not sure if I'm to add accessories, or if more lines are needed in the platform section. Please help!

Hi BuckarooToo,

did you use the simple configuration from the readme? That should give you 5 devices in the Eve app (Now, Today, In 1 day, In 2 days, In 3 days). Each one can be opened with a tap and has a lot of weather parameters.

Aha! Now I see them! I can get to them in a couple of apps, including Eve and Home (by Matthias Hochgatter), though not in the details of Apple's Home app.

Thanks!
