Sun
Computes the sun's own position for a latitude/longitude you type in - no device, no network call, no external service at all. The only integration in Athena where "connecting" is nothing more than plain trigonometry.
Adding a location
Devices & Services > Sun > "Add location" takes a name and a latitude/longitude - there is nothing to discover, unlike Ruuvi's own MAC-based "Nearby" list. Values are computed immediately and refreshed every 30 seconds after that.
What's exposed
- Above horizon - whether the sun is currently up, as a binary sensor.
- Elevation & azimuth - the sun's own angle above the horizon and compass direction, in degrees.
- Next sunrise & next sunset - the next upcoming occurrence of each.
All read-only, like Ruuvi - there's nothing to command, so it works with Dashboard cards and Automation triggers/conditions (e.g. "10 minutes before sunset") but has no actions.
Built from NOAA's own published solar position algorithm - accurate to a fraction of a degree, not full ephemeris precision, which is more than enough for home-automation triggers.
