Good Afternoon,

Briis or anyone else, anyone willing to help out an extreme NOOB? I am brand new to Home Assistant from Smartthings. I have Home Assistant running on the Home Assistant Blue. I have the Portainer add-on running, but I have never used Docker before or had any other need to use Docker (or Portainer) prior to trying to get my Weatherflow data into Home Assistant, so I am not sure what the next steps are or really where to get started. I sincerely appreciate any time anyone is willing to share to get this going.

I also just noticed your two other Weatherflow integrations. Are these just different methods of accomplishing the same goal (getting Weatherflow data into HA) or do they each have different functionality?

[briis]

Yes, but note that the UDP version is no longer maintained by me.
If you want to get started quickly, you can go here: https://github.com/briis/smartweather which pulls data directly from WeatherFlow. Before you do that install HACS first, which is a Integration store for all the stuff that is not part of the standard Home Assistant. Read here for more: https://hacs.xyz/

[PhillySports]

OK. Perhaps, I will just wait (if you don't mind and are still willing to help) for your instructions on this one -- since it is still being maintained? TIA!

A user just wrote about an issue with HA Blue and manually adding a Container using Portainer. It does not work after the latest update of Portainer. See more here: https://community.home-assistant.io/t/portainer-v2-6-2-unable-to-start-containers/332356/35

So I am not sure how to do this at present. I have a Blue for Testing, so I will play a bit with it to see if I can make it happen.

[PhillySports]

OK. Great. I appreciate all your time and effort. In the meantime, maybe I will try to get one of the other older integrations working.
