BH1750 Light Sensor - not directly connected to RPi, but available via HTTP:// URL

1

I’ve configured a dfrobot.com BH1750 light sensor module (SKU SEN0097) with an RPi Zero W to provide ambient light measurements as an integer value via a web URL. Is there some HA module or code that allows fetching values from an http:// web URL?

Answer: Sensor of type command_line
In my configuration.yaml file:

#
# Ambient Light Sensor
#
sensor:
  - platform: command_line
#   device_class: illuminance
    name: Ambient Light
    scan_interval: 30
    unit_of_measurement: 'Lux'
    command: "curl http://192.168.1.103:8080/"
    value_template: '{{ value }}'

Now, to see if I can use the Lux value in other automations.
