My Garden Irrigation

So I have setup the sensor for yesterday like you advised and its working. The Netatmo sensor for “today rain summary” reset is self at 23:59 therefore the update of Rain yesterday needs to be done before - thats why the automation is at 23:45. Then in your code I changed the update time to 23:47.

#============
#=== Sensor yesterday
#============
input_number:
  rain_yesterday:
    name: Rain yesterday
    unit_of_measurement: "mm"
    min: 0
    max: 100
    icon: mdi:weather-pouring

#=================
# === Automations update sensor yesterday on time
#=================
automation:
  - alias: Update rain sensor yesterday
    trigger:
      - platform: time

      - service: input_number.set_value
        data_template:
          entity_id: input_number.rain_yesterday
          value: "{{ states.sensor.netatmo_netatmo_rain_gauge_sum_rain_24.state }}"

@Athan - I’m busy moving over to your 16ch branch and noticed the branch is a few minor changes behind.

Are you planning on doing an update or can we mix / match some of the files?

Hi @ekkesa
I’ll back from holidays next week and I’ll update it to the latest changes

Thank you! No rush - Enjoy the holiday!

Found this anomaly as well. Seems the details of last run only shows the first 8 zones yet history shows all the zones.

Found another interesting UI anomaly. The first 3 zone shows the minutes selected, but from zone 4 on it does not show the slider value.

Someone can tell me why if I upgrade Hassio from version 0.112.4 to version 0.114.3, My garden doesn’t work anymore. Thank you.

@baringia There were some major changes in 0.113.x which affected this packages - If you scroll a bit back in the history of this thread you will get a lot of info about it. Just update to the newest version and all should be good.

Hi Herman. I manage to remotely update 16 zones to the latest updates from Klogg.

Woohoo! Awesome - Thank you so much… :pray:

Pardon my ignorance on how github works but do I just pull all your files and replace existing files or just the ones that show as merged?

@klogg - The time calculation still seem a bit off. If I calculate the minutes in the cycle by hand it comes to 16mins. but the calculated run time shows about 7 mins duration. I’m currently using the 16ch branch by @Athan, but I believe it should not have an impact. The zones currently in use is still within the first 8 zones.

Any suggestions will be appreciated. Thank you!

I recently moved to the 16ch branch - Just ripped and replaced all the files. Afterwards I edited the notifications file again to suit my needs (Telegram).

All settings were retained for the configured zones which were in place before the upgrade.

Hello everybody,

After reading the instructions several times, I realize what I was doing wrong.
One letter too many in the configuration.
How should I continue?

What do I have to rename?
How can I integrate dark sky?
It kind of doesn’t work for me
I am very grateful if you could help me!!

How do you edit notifications file (garden_notifications.yaml) to work with Telegram!? Could you share?

Thank you :slight_smile:

It was posted earlier in this thread - I adapted it from there. Just scroll back up and you will find it.

Dark Sky is a sensor so you need to add sensor above the dark sky platform…like below or in your sensor structure

sensor:

  • platform: darksky
    api_key: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
    units: auto
    scan_interval:
    minutes: 720
    forecast:

It’s also in the Prerequisites under notifications as stated by Klogg below, which there is a link that takes you to the page in this thread how to configure it.
