homebridge-weather-station-eve

This is a weather station plugin for homebridge using Weather Underground service.

This plugin is a fork of homebridge-weather-station-extended. However this plugin tries to emulate at best the Elgato Eve Weather accessory, including historical data for temperature, pressure and humidity. As a result, history and extra characteristics will show only in Eve.app, and the accessory will show as Unsupported in Home.app. If you want and accessory that is, at least partially, supported by Home.app use homebridge-weather-station-extended

Measured Values

The following values can be displayed and used in HomeKit rules:

Configuration

Add the following information to your config file. Make sure to add your API key and provide the station ID.

"accessories": [
	{
		"accessory": "WUWeatherStationEve",
		"name": "Weather Station",
		"key": "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX",
