Netatmo Rain Gauge #42

Closed Marfre888 closed 4 years ago

Marfre888 commented 4 years ago

Hi,

Thank you for this plugin, as for some reason, despite the weather station v3 being supported by homekit, the rain gauge still shows up as not supported, and thanks to your plugin it is at least able to be controlled by eve.

My main idea for getting the weather station was to close my windows automatically when it is raining. Unfortunately, I can't get them to close with this plugin either. Would it be possible to add an On/Off switch or occupation sensor that points out if it is currently raining or not.

Thanks

Hey @Marfre888 , that is quite a good idea to implement a "is it raining" switch/indicator to enable such automations. I will add it to the ToDo-List for the plugin, but recently I rarely using it by myself at all. So it could take a while that this will become reality.

danny1605 commented 4 years ago

how long will it take. approximately.

Marfre888 commented 4 years ago

@skrollme Thank you for your message. As the rainy season starts coming in. Would it be possible to integrate this feature?

In reality a, if 'rain last hour' = 0mm occupancy sensor OFF, otherwise ON, would work great. There is no need for it to be super specific.

It would at least make it possible to close my windows if I'm not home and it starts raining, which is all I'm after.

Thanks :)

Is it right, that the rain Gauge isn't supported by homebridge yet? I'm using homebridge with eveatmo plugin. The rain sensor is showing in Apple Home as "not supported".

julien94800 commented 4 years ago

Hello, It is supported by homebridge. But not supported by Apple Home app. In order to see the accessory fully working, you should have a look on the Eve app. There you will see that even if not supported in Home app, it is fully supported there

fwiehl commented 4 years ago

Oh, yes, I've recognized the rain sensor in EVE app. It is very sad, because all other things works with Apple Home App...

firebowl commented 4 years ago

Also just noticed that the rain sensor in the Home App is displayed as not supported. This is not bad but annoying because I can't hide the rain sensor in the Home App. Is there a way to disable the rain sensor in the plugin? I find it a bit annoying to have an unsupported device in the favorites of the Home App and can't hide it.

skrollme commented 4 years ago

You can only disable (blacklist) a certain device completely for HomeKit. If you do so it won't be present in Home.app AND EVE.app. There is no possibility to do this on a per-app-basis, sorry.

firebowl commented 4 years ago

Thanks, that was the solution. I could have just finished reading the documentary. ;)

clipse2004 commented 4 years ago

Hi, i have already same problem, but where can i find the mac adress from rain and wind sensor? I only can find serialnumber. When i add these to blacklist it didnt work.

EDIT: Ok now i got the mac adress, but i can only hide these frome eveplatform. the own from netatmo already shows up and not possible to unfavorite

skrollme commented 4 years ago

Hey @clipse2004 , try this way:

clipse2004 commented 4 years ago

i can see the modules and blacklisted but you can see on the pictures thats already there. Did you connect your bridge via HomeKit (Station v3) and this plugin? thats really beautifull, they sell a product "with HomeKit" and now this :/ Bild Bild1

i think i should write to support :(

thanks for your help

clipse2004 commented 4 years ago

Ok I have a Solution! Go on a iMac, Mac mini or MacBook under Home, there is it possible to deactivate.

Just for information, there will certainly be even more such requests ;)

skrollme commented 3 years ago

Thanks for your feedback, @clipse2004. I will keep it in mind for the next request ;)
