Coronavirus Germany Homeassistant Sensor

Gets the latest corona stats from the RKI API.

Coronavirus Sensor

Installation

1. Using HACS (recommended way)

Open your HACS Settings and add

https://github.com/knorr3/coronavirus_germany

as custom repository URL.

Then install the "Coronavirus Deutschland" integration.

If you use this method, your component will always update to the latest version.

2. Manual

Place a copy of:

__init__.py at <config>/custom_components/corona_germany/__init__.py
sensor.py at <config>/custom_components/corona_germany/sensor.py
manifest.json at <config>/custom_components/corona_germany/manifest.json and so on, with every other file

where <config> is your Home Assistant configuration directory.

NOTE: Do not download the file by using the link above directly. Rather, click on it, then on the page that comes up use the Raw button.

Configuration

Go to Configuration -> Integrations and click on "add integration". Then search for Coronavirus Deutschland

Configuration Variables

  • entity_id: Choose your location it will most likely begin with LK (Landkreis) or SK (Stadtkreis). Examples: SK München, LK Ebersberg, LK Wolfratshausen

Examples

For a better look-and-feel you'll need to install lovelace-multiple-entity-row (available on HACS), create a bunch of sensors and then use a configuration similar to this for each sensor:

- type: custom:multiple-entity-row
  entity: sensor.coronavirus_yourlocation
  entities:
    - attribute: cases
      name: Cases
    - attribute: deaths
      name: Deaths
    - attribute: incidence
      name: Incidence
  show_state: false
  icon: 'mdi:biohazard'
  name: München
  secondary_info: last-changed
