KNMI

Component to integrate with knmi.

This component will set up the following platforms.

Platform	Description
binary_sensor	Weather alert True or False, the alert itself is an attribute.
sensor	a few weather related sensors.
weather	Weather data provided by KNMI, https://weerlive.nl/.

Installation

1. Using the tool of choice open the directory (folder) for your HA configuration (where you find configuration.yaml).
2. If you do not have a custom_components directory (folder) there, you need to create it.
3. In the custom_components directory (folder) create a new folder called knmi.
4. Download all the files from the custom_components/knmi/ directory (folder) in this repository.
5. Place the files you downloaded in the new directory (folder) you created.
6. Restart Home Assistant
7. In the HA UI go to "Configuration" -> "Integrations" click "+" and search for "knmi"

Using your HA configuration directory (folder) as a starting point you should now also have this:

custom_components/knmi/translations/en.json
custom_components/knmi/translations/nl.json
custom_components/knmi/__init__.py
custom_components/knmi/api.py
custom_components/knmi/binary_sensor.py
custom_components/knmi/config_flow.py
custom_components/knmi/const.py
custom_components/knmi/entity.py
custom_components/knmi/manifest.json
custom_components/knmi/sensor.py
custom_components/knmi/weather.py

Configuration is done in the UI

You can configure and setup KNMI in your integrations page, look for KNMI in the add integrations dialog.

Known limitations

• This integration is translated into English and Dutch, the entity names and the data (from the API) is only available in Dutch.
• The free API only provides a forecast for 2 days ahead. To make the weather card aesthetically not look too bad, the forecast for today is also shown, resulting in showing only 3 days (see example below).
