Espeasy: Feature request... DS18B20 plugin enhancement. Alarm feature.

Created on 26 Oct 2018  路  2Comments  路  Source: letscontrolit/ESPEasy

I was just looking thru the datasheet for these little sensors and found out they have 2 user configurable alarm functions. From what I gather it will trigger an alarm output whenever the set temp is reached. I was thinking that would be a pretty handy thing to have available. I realize that the same thing can be done with rules but if it were available in the plugin it would simplify things quite a bit.

I kind of envision an event triggered when the alarm is activated.
I know there is a lot of other work that's more important going on now so this can go on the back burner. Just throwing this out there for folks to dwell on.

Thoughts?

There are more sensors capable of sending an alarm when reaching some threshold.
So an "alarm" event would make sense.

we want to add more event based rules handling and thus it would make sense of making use of such an feature within the plugin.
