Development informations¶

Sensors history¶

Most of the sensors for this plugin have no history enabled by default. For example forecast data have no history as there is no need to keep forecast history!

Only the following sensors are configured to store the history:

current_barometer_value
current_humidity
current_temperature
current_wind_direction
current_wind_gust
current_wind_speed

Timeout on sensors¶

All sensors have a timeout set to 65 minutes : as the interval between each check on weather.com is set to 30 min, we let the plugin to encounter 1 failure.

Condition codes and texts are listed here: https://developer.yahoo.com/weather/documentation.html
