# Example entry for configuration.yaml
sensor:
- platform: google_travel_time
api_key: XXXX_XXXXX_XXXXX
origin: Trondheim, Norway
destination: Paris, France
Is there a way to change default unit (metric) to imperial? I don’t seem to find a way to do it.
I am currently running HA 0.35.2
Thanks!
Actually, I need to rephrase my question.
I have
homeassistant:
unit_system: metric
in my configuration.yaml, and I want to have Google Maps Travel Time component to report in imperial units only. Is it possible?
do I just add the following inside the google travel time component?
sensor:
- platform: google_travel_time
units: imperial
Thanks,
Yes, add it to google_travel_time sensor
I tried it, but it seems like
homeassistant:
unit_system: metric
is overwriting the sensor settings so it still show metric on my google_travel_time sensor
Sorry, I think it should be
sensor:
- platform: google_travel_time
options:
units: imperial
It works!!! Thanks so much!
P.S. I tried the following yesterday, but hass --script check_config returns error. I was so close on getting it right. Still learning YAML
sensor:
- platform: google_travel_time
options:
- units: imperial
It would also be great if you can help improve the documentation for the component. In the upper right corner of any documentation page, you will find “Edit this page on GitHub”. Follow the link and submit your suggested change. Demonstrated here: https://youtu.be/dRfk9JAlPJk?t=1h16m17s
Glady!
