HomeAssistant component: clientraw

The clientraw platform is WD Clientraw parser which can read data from your online weather station such a Davis Vantage PRO 2 (tested) and other generating clientraw.txt files

To add clientraw to your installation, add the following to your configuration.yaml file:

# Example configuration.yaml entry
sensor:
  - platform: clientraw
    url: "http://example.com/clientraw.txt"
    monitored_conditions:
      - temp
      - humidity

Configuration variables:

• url: full path to clientraw.txt file
• interval: poll interval in minutes (1-59), 15 min is default
• monitored_conditions array: Conditions to display in the frontend.
  • dewpoint: Dewpoint (°C or °F)
  • heat_index: Heat index (°C or °F)
  • temp: Temperature (°C or °F)
  • temp_indoor: Temperature (°C or °F)
  • temp_day_max: Today MAX temperature (°C or °F)
  • temp_day_min: Today MIN temperature (°C or °F)
  • humidex: Humidex (°C or °F)
  • wind_degrees: Where the wind is coming from in degrees, with true north at 0° and progressing clockwise.
  • wind_dir: Wind Direction as string ie.: N, NW, etc.
  • wind_gust_hour: Wind Gust in last hour (km/h or mph)
  • wind_gust_day: Wind Gust in last day (km/h or mph)
  • wind_speed: Current Wind Speed (km/h or mph)
  • wind_speed_average: Last 60 Sec Avg Wind Speed (km/h or mph)
  • wind_speed_avg_10min: 10 Min Avg Wind Speed (km/h or mph)
  • symbol: Symbol
  • daily_rain: Daily Rain (mm or in)
  • yesterday_rain: Yesterday Rain (mm or in)
  • monthly_rain: Monthly Rain (mm or in)
  • yearly_rain: Yearly Rain (mm or in)
  • rain_rate: Rain rate (mm or in)
  • pressure: Pressure (hPa or inHg)
  • humidity: Relative humidity (%)
  • humidity_indoor: Relative humidity (%)
  • cloud_height: Cloud Height (m or ft)
  • forecast: string based output ie.: night showers
  • station: station name with time added
  • date: current date
  • wind_chill: Wind Chill (°C or °F)
  • wind_chill_max: Today MAX Wind Chill (°C or °F)
  • wind_chill_min: Today MIN Wind Chill (°C or °F)
  • vp_solar: Solar Irradiation (W/m² or BTU/(h×ft²))
  • uv_index: UV Index

Install via HACS

You can find this integration in a store.

Install manually

You need to copy clientraw folder from this repo to the custom_components folder in the root of your configuration, file tree should look like this:

└── ...
└── configuration.yaml
└── custom_components
    └── clientraw
        └── __init__.py
        └── manifest.json
        └── sensor.py

Note: if the custom_components directory does not exist, you need to create it.
