[Tinkerforge] Support Humidity 2 bricklet #5392

Please support the Tinkerforge Humidity 2 bricklet: https://www.tinkerforge.com/en/doc/Hardware/Bricklets/Humidity_V2.html

There are lots of new Bricklets which are not supported in openHAB at the moment. Unfortunately... It is on our Todo list to create new bindings for our Bricklets.

I realize that this is not really a clean solution to your problem, but I am simply using openhab's REST API to update values of the bricklets that I have and are not supported by the openHab binding.

I wrote a small Python program based on the weather station example (https://www.tinkerforge.com/en/doc/Kits/WeatherStation/PythonToLCD.html#starter-kit-weather-station-python-to-lcd) that retrieves values from all bricklets via callbacks from the official Python API.

The function to send these values to openHab looks like this:

def update_openhab(self, item, value):
    url = 'http://localhost:8080/rest/items/%s' % item
    log.debug("Setting OpenHab item %s: %s" % (item, value))
    response = requests.post(url, data=value)
    log.debug("Result: %d" % response.status_code)

This of course is a temporary solution, but allows me to use all my brickets
