Hello,
I moved since some time from darksky to the custom climacell component (https://github.com/r-renato/ha-climacell-weather). This worked well for sensors, but I didn’t put in the effort for the weather component.
Now I am using the core climacell integration. I have to get:
main location
- hourly forecast (weather card usage)
- daily forecast (weather card usage)
- current weather data and some specific hourly forecast (I take this from the daily or hourly weather component)
2 additional locations - daily forecast (just today now and next day)
Code to generate my specific sensors additionally to the two weather cards (hourly + daily for main location) below.
The issues I found:
- Data in the hourly weather card (most likely also daily) is not updated every 15 min (I set the config to 15min and 30min to test). Actually I saw it refreshing later than after 14 hours.
- I don’t know how many calls the integration is doing. Not sure if I run into limits… I have now 3 climacell integrations and set all frequencies to 30min.
- I can only set the frequency to max 30min. For my secondary locations, I would set them to every 3 hours to reduce API calls.
Any hint for debugging or fixing is highly valued!!! I want (need) an update of every 15min on my main location…
Thanks,
André
Update:
API calls are not exceeding, I checked my Tomorrow.io account. With the new integration, this is <100 calls per day. With the custom component, I was at 700/day… Seems not to be the issue.
I also only see 4 requests every two hours, though I configured every 30min for all three climacell location I set up with the integration.
