* Add documentation for the Awair sensor platform * Update documentation for Awair After PR feedback, I decided not to implement all of the additional configuration options here. They felt like overkill. * PR Feedback

The `awair` sensor platform will fetch data from your [Awair device(s)](https://getawair.com).
|
|
|
|
You will need to request access to the Awair API and obtain an access token from the Awair [Developer Console](https://developer.getawair.com/).
|
|
|
|
## {% linkable_title Configuring the Platform %}
|
|
|
|
To enable these sensors, add the following lines to your `configuration.yaml` file:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
sensor:
|
|
- platform: awair
|
|
access_token: ACCESS_TOKEN
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The Awair API has stringent usage quotas. The API method to discover devices in your account is
|
|
limited to only 6 calls per 24 hours. If you find that you've exceeded this quota, you may optionally
|
|
append device information to your configuration to bypass this call:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
sensor:
|
|
- platform: awair
|
|
access_token: ACCESS_TOKEN
|
|
devices:
|
|
- uuid: UUID
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
{% configuration %}
|
|
access_token:
|
|
description: The access token for the Awair API.
|
|
required: true
|
|
type: string
|
|
devices:
|
|
description: An optional list to manually configure devices rather than relying upon API discovery.
|
|
required: false
|
|
type: list
|
|
keys:
|
|
uuid:
|
|
description: UUID of the Awair sensor to monitor.
|
|
required: true
|
|
type: string
|
|
{% endconfiguration %}
|
|
|
|
## {% linkable_title Available Sensors %}
|
|
|
|
The platform will fetch all available sensors from each Awair device linked to your account. Supported sensors:
|
|
|
|
* Temperature
|
|
* Humidity
|
|
* CO2
|
|
* VOC
|
|
* Dust, PM2.5, PM10: varies according to Awair model
|
|
|
|
This platform refreshes at an interval based on a 300 API call per-day quota, and the number of devices you have configured.
