SDR and Digoo DG-R8H Temp & Humidity sensor

[Gazza]

I picked up a cheap Digoo DG-R8H Temp & Humidity sensor from ebay to add to my system and it is recognised by rtl_433 as a #19 "Nexus Temperature & Humidity Sensor".

The output of running rtl_433 from the command line is:

2018-08-01 22:03:11 :   Nexus Temperature/Humidity

        House Code:      180

        Battery:         OK

        Channel:         1

        Temperature:     20.10 C

        Humidity:        42 %

When I run sdr.py from the command line the parsed output is missing the humidity data.

pi@Pi3Btest:~ $ sudo PYTHONPATH=/home/weewx/bin python /home/weewx/bin/user/sdr.py --cmd="rtl_433 -q -U -F json -R 19"

out: ['{

"time" : "2018-08-01 12:36:26", 

"model" : "Nexus Temperature/Humidity", 

"id" : 180, 

"battery" : "OK", 

"channel" : 1, 

"temperature_C" : 20.100, 

"humidity" : 43

}\n']

parsed: {

'temperature.1:180.NexusTemperaturePacket': 20.1,

'battery.1:180.NexusTemperaturePacket': 0, 

'usUnits': 16, 

'dateTime': 1533126986

}

How do I get the missing humidity data ??

        pkt['temperature'] = Packet.get_float(obj, 'temperature_C')

        if 'humidity' in obj:

            pkt['humidity'] = Packet.get_float(obj, 'humidity')

        pkt['msg_type'] = Packet.get_int(obj, 'msg_type')

Add these two lines (around line 1612) as shown above to sdy.py:

        if 'humidity' in obj:

            pkt['humidity'] = Packet.get_float(obj, 'humidity')

Let me know if it works.

Hi Andy

I now get a parsed output like this:

parsed: {
'temperature.1:180.NexusTemperaturePacket': 16.6,
'humidity.1:180.NexusTemperaturePacket': 49.0,

'battery.1:180.NexusTemperaturePacket': 0,
'usUnits': 16,

'dateTime': 1533881039
}

So your edit worked, my version of sdr.py is not exactly the same as what you posted but close enough to work out where to put the extra lines.
