Mi Flora Plant Sensor
</h1>
</header>
<hr class="divider">
<p>The <a href="https://www.open-homeautomation.com/2016/08/23/reverse-engineering-the-mi-plant-sensor/">Mi Flora plant sensor</a> is a small Bluetooth Low Energy device that monitors not only the moisture, but also light, temperature and
conductivity. As only a single BLE device can be polled at the same time, the library implements locking to make sure this is the case.</p>
<p>To use your Mi Flora plant sensor in your installation, add the following to your <code class="highlighter-rouge">configuration.yaml</code> file:</p>
<div class="language-yaml highlighter-rouge"><pre class="highlight"><code><span class="c1"># Example configuration.yaml entry</span>
<span class="s">sensor</span>
<span class="s">platform</span><span class="pi">:</span> <span class="s">miflora</span>
<span class="s">mac</span><span class="pi">:</span> <span class="s">xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx</span>
<span class="s">name</span><span class="pi">:</span> <span class="s">Flower 1</span>
<span class="s">force_update</span><span class="pi">:</span> <span class="s">false</span>
<span class="s">median</span><span class="pi">:</span> <span class="s">3</span>
<span class="s">monitored_conditions</span><span class="pi">:</span>
<span class="pi">-</span> <span class="s">moisture</span>
<span class="pi">-</span> <span class="s">light</span>
<span class="pi">-</span> <span class="s">temperature</span>
<span class="pi">-</span> <span class="s">conductivity</span>
</code></pre>
</div>
<ul>
<li><strong>mac</strong> (<em>Required</em>): The MAC address of your sensor. You can find this be running <code class="highlighter-rouge">hcitool lescan</code> from command line.</li>
<li><strong>name</strong> (<em>Optional</em>): The name displayed in the frontend.</li>
<li><strong>force_update</strong> (<em>Optional</em>): Sends update events even if the value hasn’t changed.</li>
<li><strong>median</strong> (<em>Optional</em>): Sometimes the sensor measurements show spikes. Using this parameter, the poller will report the median of the last
3 (you can also use larger values) measurements. This filters out single spikes. Median: 5 will also filter double spikes.
If you never have problems with spikes, median=1 will work fine.</li>
<li><strong>monitored_conditions</strong> (<em>Required</em>): The paramaters that should be monitored.</li>
<li><strong>timeout</strong> (<em>Optional</em>): Define the timeout value in seconds when polling (defaults to 10 if not defined)</li>
<li><strong>retries</strong> (<em>Optional</em>): Define the number of retries when polling (defaults to 2 if not defined)</li>
<li><strong>cache</strong> (<em>Optional</em>): Define cache expiration value in seconds (defaults to 1200 if not defined)</li>
</ul>
<p>Note that by default the sensor is only polled once every 15 minutes. This means with the median=3 setting, it will take as least 30 minutes before the sensor will report a value after a Home Assistant restart. As the values usually change very slowly, this isn’t a big problem.
Reducing polling intervals will have a negative effect on the battery life.</p>
