This rainbird switch platform allows interacting with LNK WiFi module of the Rain Bird Irrigation system in Home Assistant.

{% linkable_title Configuration %}

Once you have enabled the Rain Bird component, add the following to your configuration.yaml file:

switch:
  - platform: rainbird
    switches:
      sprinkler_1:
        zone: 1
        friendly_name: "Front sprinklers"
        trigger_time: 10
        scan_interval: 10
      sprinkler_2:
        friendly_name: "Back sprinklers"
        zone: 2
        trigger_time: 20
        scan_interval: 10

Configuration variables:

• zone (Required): Station zone identifier.
• friendly_name (Optional): Just a friendly name for the station.
• trigger_time (Required): The default duration to sprinkle the zone.
• scan_interval (Optional): How fast to refresh the switch.

Please note that due to the implementation of the API within the LNK Module, there is a concurrency issue. For example, the Rain Bird app will give connection issues (like already a connection active).
