Buienradar does not automatically create sensors ... now what?

I have tried to install Buienradar to retrieve the local weather data in Home Assistant following the examples on the buienradar integrations page.

The process seems pretty straight forward, but most likely I missed out on something. I just added the following code to configuration.yaml:

sensor:
  # Haal weerinformatie op bij Buienradar  
  - platform: buienradar
    name: 'weer'
  # Force 'Meetstation Volkel' to be used:
    latitude: 51.65
    longitude: 5.70
    monitored_conditions:
      - stationname 
      - symbol
      - humidity
      - temperature
      - feeltemperature
      - irradiance
      - windspeed
      - pressure

I don’t get any error messages in my log files.

Any suggestions?

Restart homeassistant?

Tried that as well as rebooting the Hassio system, but nothing happens

It turned out that the SEMS portal caused some instabilities in the HA platform. After I removed it from my installation Buienradar works flawlessly.

Hi,

I also have some issues adding buienradar, my configuration.yaml looks like:

#Buienradar
sensor:
  - plaform: buienradar    
    latitude: 51.36
    longitude: 5.79
    timeframe: 30
    monitored_conditions:
    - stationname
    - symbol
    - humidity
    - temperature
    - groundtemperature
    - windspeed
    - windforce
    - winddirection
    - windazimuth
    - pressure
    - visibility
    - precipitation
    - precipitation_forecast_average
    - precipitation_forecast_total
    - irridiance 
    
#Slimme meter (P1)
  - platform: dsmr
    port: /dev/ttyUSB0
    dsmr_version: 4
  - platform: template
    sensors:
      daily_power:
        friendly_name: Daily Power
        unit_of_measurement: kWh
        value_template: "{{ states('sensor.daily_power_offpeak')|float + states('sensor.daily_power_peak')|float }}"
      monthly_power:
        friendly_name: Monthly Power
        unit_of_measurement: kWh
        value_template: "{{ states('sensor.monthly_power_offpeak')|float + states('sensor.monthly_power_peak')|float }}"

utility_meter:
  daily_power_offpeak:
    source: sensor.energy_consumption_tarif_1
    cycle: daily
  daily_power_peak:
    source: sensor.energy_consumption_tarif_2
    cycle: daily
  daily_gas:
    source: sensor.gas_consumption
    cycle: daily
  monthly_power_offpeak:
    source: sensor.energy_consumption_tarif_1

I now get the error:

ERROR (MainThread) [homeassistant.config] Invalid config for [sensor]: required key not provided @ data[‘platform’]. Got None. (See /config/configuration.yaml, line 15)

What am I missing?

Ok,

It’s working now, looks like a little typo (irradiance instead of irridiance) AND not to forget, restart of Home Assistant.

Working code in configuration.yaml is now:

sensor:
    #Buienradar (51.36 / 5.79)
  - platform: buienradar
    name: '<city>'
    latitude: 51.38657974751884
    longitude: 5.760376453399658
    timeframe: 120
    monitored_conditions:
    - stationname
    - symbol
    - humidity
    - temperature
    - feeltemperature
    - groundtemperature
    - temperature_1d
    - windspeed
    - windforce
    - winddirection
    - windazimuth
    - pressure
    - visibility
    - precipitation
    - precipitation_forecast_average
    - precipitation_forecast_total
    - irradiance
    - rainlast24hour
    - rainlasthour
    - rainchance_1d

Still not quite sure if the data is accurate, but it’s working now
