Can get the temperature from other sensor?

[FradSer]

Hey all,

I used RM mini 3 to control my air conditioner, but RM mini 3 has no temperature sensor. So that the temperature is always 14º, and I have an independent temperature sensor get the right temperature 27º.

Is there any way to replace the temperature sensor's reading to the air conditioner's?

Thank you all.

I would also be interested if this is possible.

I'd be super interested in this as well. I have a temperature sensor in the air conditioned room that I can pull readings from over HTTP.

good idea. I would like to have that capability too.

+1 that would be useful.

Another vote here, would be great to be able to use a 1-wire temp sensor connected to the Pi as the source of the temperature.

This one needs some discussion. Plugins can't talk to one another so I can't get the temperature from another HomeKit device.

For flexibility though I could read it from a file or url at regular intervals, thoughts?

Good idea.

Maybe homebridge-http-temperature is useful.

Reading from a file at regular intervals would be great!
