Weatherman Dashboard for ESPHome
I have multiple dashboards around my apartment and they display different information depending on the context. Since this is placed near the front door, it contains concise information for what's outside with a homey style to match the rest of the wall.
This is part of the ecosystem for my Home Assistant configuration.
Hardware
- Waveshare 7.5" e-Paper Screen - 480x800 display resolution
- Waveshare Universal e-Paper Driver Board with ESP32
- Ikea RIBBA Picture Frame 5"x7"
- Legrand 3 Way Switch + USB
- Micro USB Thin Ribbon Cable
- Angled USB Thin Ribbon Cable
Software
- ESPHome
- Home Assistant running on a Raspberry Pi as a remote server
Installation
- No soldering is required since the e-Paper driver board was integrated into the ESP32 board. All I needed to do was to connect the e-Paper screen to the driver board, and then connect the driver board to the USB socket on my light switch.
- Copy
/fonts
,/images
, andweatherman.yaml
to your /.config/esphome folder. - Integrate the content of
sensor.yaml
to your Home Assistant template configuration YAML file. - Install HA-GTFS-RT to your Home Assistant using HACS.
- Once booted, flash
weatherman.yaml
the ESP32 board using ESPHome. - Enjoy!
