Irrigation Package for Home Assistant
Have to give many thanks to the Home Assistant community forums, this is just a reworking of user klogg's package found here, https://community.home-assistant.io/t/garden-irrigation/1950/86
The orignal package had weather adjustments to the automations, but did not need those so it has it all removed.
This package is used to water an 8 zone greenhouse. The valves are powered with a relay board controled by a NodeMcu running Tasmota.
Create a folder named “packages” in your Home Assistant configuration directory. In the packages directory you can store any number of packages in a YAML file.
To use packages in Home Assistant add the following to your configuration.yaml
homeassistant:
packages: !include_dir_named packages/
Add the files from this packages/ to your folder. Also to keep things all nice add the lines from the groups.yaml to your groups.yaml.
