Release v0.0.20

• (steinwedel) FIXED: README object tree now matches the minMax.* layout and documents html.current, real-time fields, reception/barometer/soil notes, and widget usage
• (steinwedel) FIXED: Pin ioBroker testing-action-adapter and testing-action-deploy to major @v1 (adapter checker S3043/S3044)

Release v0.0.19

• (steinwedel) FIXED: Updated ioBroker GitHub Actions to versions that use Node.js 24 instead of deprecated Node.js 20

Release v0.0.18

• (steinwedel) FIXED: Removed redundant @types/mocha from devDependencies (already provided by @iobroker/testing)

Release v0.0.17

• (steinwedel) FIXED: Adapter checker: common.nogit spelling, @tsconfig/node22, release-script manual-review plugin, and Dependabot auto-merge workflow

Release v0.0.16

• (steinwedel) FIXED: Adapter checker findings: Node.js >=22, ioBroker keyword, admin >=7.6.20, news for unpublished versions removed, adapter timers instead of Node setTimeout, missing admin i18n files, jsonConfig sizes/translation keys, README changelog format, and common.noGit

Release v0.0.15

• (steinwedel) ENHANCED: README.md is now in English (was German-only), adds a link to the Davis WeatherLink Live product page, and the changelog was moved out of README.md into a dedicated CHANGELOG.md
• (steinwedel) ENHANCED: Repository metadata cleanup for the ioBroker latest-repository submission: replaced the placeholder contact address, added GitHub repository topics, added the iobroker npm package owner, and fixed an invalid GitHub Actions input on the integration-tests job

0.0.14 (2026-08-16)

• (steinwedel) NEW: Added an optional html.current dashboard widget with current conditions, a wind rose, and a weather forecast.
• (steinwedel) FIXED: Clear skies were reported as cloudy again in the early morning: the solar model is not trustworthy below ~15° sun elevation (cosine error, horizon, GHI ramp), and holding the last dusk reading or falling back to dew-point humidity both freeze "bewölkt" overnight. Trusted solar estimates are now only taken at ≥ 15°, persisted separately, and used until then; a solar station never uses the humidity heuristic.
• (steinwedel) CHANGED: The wind direction spread indicator now exposes the arc's two boundary angles (windDirLastMin5Min/windDirLastMax5Min) instead of a single opening-angle number, so the actual observed direction range can be shown, not just its size
• (steinwedel) FIXED: Wind direction range tracking no longer includes readings taken during calm wind, since a vane's direction becomes unreliable noise at near-zero speed and could otherwise make the tracked 5-minute range balloon out to a spurious value (e.g. 0°) the wind never actually blew from

0.0.13 (2026-08-02)

• (steinwedel) NEW: Rain intensity, frost warning, heat risk and dew point comfort categories, day and month minimum and maximum tracking, an evapotranspiration estimate, and a wind direction spread indicator, derived from existing sensor data

0.0.12 (2026-08-01)

• (steinwedel) CHANGED: A failed real-time broadcast activation is now only logged as a warning after 3 consecutive failed attempts (transient failures before that are logged at debug level only), since occasional single activation failures against the WeatherLink Live are normal and self-recover on the next retry

0.0.11 (2026-07-30)

• (steinwedel) FIXED: The solar-based cloud cover model now averages solar radiation readings over a 5-minute window before computing the clear-sky index, instead of using only the single most recent reading. A single brief cloud shadow (well under a minute) could otherwise swing the reported cloud cover by tens of percentage points even though the overall sky condition had not changed (observed e.g. 39% instead of ~0% during a momentary dip). The site-learned clear-sky reference calibration itself is unaffected and still uses the raw (unsmoothed) peak reading.

0.0.10 (2026-07-30)

• (steinwedel) NEW: Added wind.svg, sleet.svg and hail.svg to the bundled weather icon set (admin/img/weathericons/), covering the full Bright Sky/DWD icon vocabulary for external scripts/widgets that reuse these icons

0.0.9 (2026-07-30)

• (steinwedel) NEW: sensors.tx<N>.windDirLastText - current wind direction as a 16-point compass abbreviation (e.g. "N", "NNO", "O", "SSW"), derived from windDirLast

0.0.8 (2026-07-30)

• (steinwedel) FIXED: The solar-based cloud cover model now learns a site-specific clear-sky reference per sun elevation angle (persisted in calculated.clearSkyReference) instead of relying solely on the generic Haurwitz formula, which could overestimate the theoretically achievable clear-sky irradiance and thus report cloud cover on genuinely clear days (observed e.g. 14% instead of 0% at 28° sun elevation)

0.0.7 (2026-07-30)

• (steinwedel) CHANGED: Vollständiger Gerätename "Davis WeatherLink Live 6100" statt nur "Davis WeatherLink Live" in Dokumentation, Admin-UI-Texten und Adapter-Beschreibung verwendet

0.0.6 (2026-07-30)

• (steinwedel) CHANGED: README komplett überarbeitet: Entwickler-Boilerplate entfernt, echte Nutzerdokumentation (Installation, Konfiguration, Objektstruktur, Bewölkungs-/Wetter-Icon-Modelle, Wettercode-Tabelle) ergänzt

0.0.5 (2026-07-30)

• (steinwedel) CHANGED: Calculated/derived values (cloudCover, cloudCoverModel, weatherCode, weatherState, weatherIcon) moved from sensors.* into a dedicated calculated.* folder, to keep them separate from the raw per-transmitter sensor channels. Existing installations should delete the old sensors.cloudCover*/sensors.weather* states, as they are no longer updated.

0.0.4 (2026-07-30)

• (steinwedel) NEW: Simplified current-weather icon (sensors.weatherCode, sensors.weatherState, sensors.weatherIcon) derived from cloud cover, rain rate, temperature and dew point, using a WMO-ww-code-inspired classification (in the spirit of DWD's MOSMIX significant weather codes). Icon graphics are a bundled MIT-licensed subset of Meteocons by Bas Milius (see admin/img/weathericons/LICENSE). No value is created unless the required sensors/estimates are available.
• (steinwedel) FIXED: The dew-point-based cloud cover heuristic now correctly converts temperature/dew point (°F->°C) and the barometric pressure trend (inHg->hPa) before applying its thresholds; previously the raw imperial values were used directly, which skewed the estimate
• (steinwedel) CHANGED: Latitude/longitude for the solar-based cloud cover model and day/night icon detection are now taken from ioBroker's system-wide location setting (Admin -> System settings) instead of a separate adapter configuration field

0.0.3 (2026-07-30)

• (steinwedel) NEW: Estimated cloud cover (sensors.cloudCover, sensors.cloudCoverModel), using a solar-radiation clear-sky index when a solar sensor and location (latitude/longitude) are configured, falling back to a rougher dew-point-based heuristic (optionally refined with the barometric pressure trend if a barometer is present) otherwise. No value is created if neither model's required sensors are present.

0.0.2 (2026-07-29)

• (steinwedel) NEW: Initial implementation using the WeatherLink Live Local API (/v1/current_conditions polling) with dynamic object creation adapting to the transmitters/sensors actually configured on the station
• (steinwedel) NEW: Real-time mode via /v1/real_time UDP broadcast (port 22222) for high-frequency wind/rain updates
• (steinwedel) NEW: "Find WeatherLink Live" button in the admin UI that discovers the device via mDNS/Bonjour (_weatherlinklive._tcp.local) and automatically fills in its IP address and port
• (steinwedel) NEW: Configurable unit system (metric °C/km/h/hPa or imperial °F/mph/inHg); the Local API always reports imperial values, which are converted before being stored when "Metric" is selected
• (steinwedel) NEW: Rain fields are converted from raw tip counts to a physical rainfall depth (mm/mm per hour when metric, inches/inches per hour when imperial), using the collector's tip size (rain_size) reported by the device
